Fees are broken down in to two categories – Student Contribution Fee and Tuition Fee. Most Undergraduate students qualify for free Tuition fees under the HEA Free Fees Initiative (provided the student does not already hold a third level qualification and is not completing the same year of study for a second time). Further information on the Free Fees Initiative may be found here.
The Student Contribution is €3,000 for Academic Year 2023-2024. Some courses also carry an additional fee e.g. Art Materials fee or Health and Safety fee.
