Postgraduate Fees
Postgraduate Tuition Fees Fees can be subject to change from year to year. Please check www.nuigalway.ie/fees for exact individual course fees. Fees quoted are all per annum fees. Tuition fees for international (non-EU*) students are also listed on www.nuigalway.ie/fees . *An EU student is defined as an EU national (i.e. holding an EU passport/or birth certificate) who has been ordinarily resident in an EU member state for at least three of the five years immediately preceding their entry to the third-level course. This excludes residency for educational purposes. For more information see www.nuigalway.ie/fees . Methods of Payment EU fees can be paid securely online when registering using a debit or credit card. Alternatively, you can request a bank giro online; log into your student portal at www.nuigalway. ie/fees and click on the “Pay your fees” link. Bank giros can only be used in any bank within the Republic of Ireland. Please retain your receipt for proof of payment. EU fees may be paid in two equal instalments—50% on registration and 50% by 31 January (of the following year). If you are being funded by a SUSI grant or another organisation, you must provide written evidence of this funding to the Fees Office by 31 October annually. Non-EU students must pay their fees in full in advance of registration. For more information see www.nuigalway.ie/student-fees/international .
Deposit—Taught Courses only To secure a taught course postgraduate place at NUI Galway, a deposit is payable at offer/ acceptance stage. The deposit is usually €500 but can be €1,000 for some courses. The deposit payment is deducted from your course fee at registration. If you do not register at NUI Galway, then this deposit is not refundable. However, if you did not attain the stipulated conditions of your offer when a conditional offer was originally made, the deposit will be refunded to you, with the exception of the Professional Master of Education and Máistir Gairmiúil san Oideachas programmes.
