- Passport scan
- Students attending higher education institutions outside of the U.S. may need to submit English language proficiency exam results. Contact your IES Abroad Representative for more information.
These requirements are subject to change according to University College Dublin's admissions policies.
A passport that is valid for at least six months beyond the end date of the program, with at least two blank pages is required. Visit travel.state.gov to locate U.S. passport agencies in your area.
Lucky you! Ireland does not require U.S. citizens to obtain a student visa before studying abroad for a semester or longer.
Once you arrive in Ireland, you'll need to obtain an Irish Residence Permit. Learn more about registering with Irish immigration.
Not a U.S. citizen? Consult the consulate website of your passport country and contact your IES Abroad Advisor with further questions.
