Ireland: Non-EEA student numbers up 45% in five years

The number of students enrolling in Ireland for higher education has been increased by 45% between 2013 and 2017 due to the increased number of non-European Economic Area. However, one finds difficulty in finding accommodation and employment. It was noticed that all those who have been issued a permit for study in a full-time higher education program in 2017, 25% were from the US, 17% from India, 15% from Brazil, 14% from China and 5% from Canada. The top country of origin of non-EEA students enrolled in full-time higher education in Ireland was China between 2013 and 2017. Ireland is successfully attracting and retaining increased numbers of higher-level non-EEA students. Ireland allows all the non-EEA students to remain for 12 to 24 months after the completion of the degree to look for work under the Third Level Graduate Programme. In 2017, 2,090 non-EEA students were allowed to stay in the country under the TLGP. However, it is been observed by the report highlights that some students face some difficulties like delays in immigration registration, securing affordable student accommodation and transition to employment after graduation. It is noticed that most of the time employers are not always aware that non-EEA students are entitled to work under the TLGP that’s why non-EEA students find difficulty in finding work. Some students have reported that delays cause stress and anxiety in relation to their legal status and have a negative impact on their academic experience in Ireland. Some positive immigration changes have been observed this year and it is been hoped that this will continue and solutions will be found to make booking and immigration appointment easier.

Client Testimonial

MBBS Abroad is a big decision and your success depends upon the honesty of your consultant. It is a long process starting from choosing the right college to reaching there at college door step and finally studying there for next 5-6 years. You are in a new country without many old friends. We were sure to approach a consultant who is based out of our district only so that not only during admission but for next 6 years, we can have smooth interactions. So, we approached GKWorks as they have a branch in Saharanpur. As we anticipated, there are lot of things to be done during admission process that goes for 3-4 months. At every step, it was useful for us to have our consultant who was only 20 minutes’ drive from our home. We were able to discuss everything face to face any day and thus were able to have easy process.
