International Office

One of my key responsibilities is to ensure all of our International students feel supported, happy and healthy during their time with us.

Moving to a new country to study is a big step, and settling in takes time. My role is to make sure every international student feels supported from day one, whether that means helping with the practical side of life in Dublin or just having someone to talk to.

We keep a close eye on how every student is getting on, and my door is always open.

Student Testimonials

Studying in Ireland is great because I have the opportunity to choose and study subjects I like and that are not taught in Italy. I also have the opportunity to speak English daily which allows me to improve my fluency in the language.

The International Office have really helped me adapt to school, filing applications and paperwork and answering all my questions. Thanks to them, I am much less worried because I always feel supported.

We're Here to Support You

We understand that making the transition to a new country and education system has many challenges and we aim to make that transition as seamless and straight forward as possible.

We have a dedicated and professional team that look after all our international students, from initial contact, through to admission, induction, academic mentoring and university application.

Before You Arrive

As soon as your place has been confirmed a dedicated international student support officer will work closely with you to ensure that your child is fully prepared to start at the 91制片厂.

This involves everything from immigration and visa support, to sourcing suitable, safe accommodation, organsing healthcare, setting up a bank account, confirming school timetables, subject and teacher selection and arranging collection from the airport if required.

Induction

A series of orientation events are held by the International Office at the start of the year to help students settle in, make friends and adjust to their new environment. Students are then encouraged to participate in a range of extra-curricular activities throughout the year that support their academic, cultural, social, sporting interests and preferences.

Student Testimonials

Doris Wong

We are so impressed with the 91制片厂鈥檚 academic approach. Nadine鈥檚 teachers are all extremely committed and dedicated. Another thing that impresses me is how all the classes are available through the Moodle platform. This is extremely convenient and enables much easier revision and recapping.

Total Academic Support

We understand that living away from home while completing a challenging academic programme can be hard. To help with this, academic mentors and study skills experts are available to students who require support with their studies during the year.

Mentors meet regularly with students on a one-to-one basis and give advice on class timetables, subject choice and course content, as well as practical tips for student life and help with any personal queries. Regular study skills seminars ensure students develop a study routine that suits their own individual needs.

The International Office also plays a supervisory role in monitoring student progress, behaviour and well-being, and communicating with parents should there be any concerns during the year. Parents have real-time access to student grades and attendance and can speak to their dedicated international student support officer at any time.

University Applications Guidance

We want the best possible outcome for our students. Delivering excellent teaching and academic support is an important part of this, but for international students, assisting with university applications, whether in Ireland or overseas, is also key to聽this success.

Our international student support officer and career guidance department provide one-to-one support with all aspects of college research and applications, from personal statements to resumes, interview preparation and direct applications to universities.

By taking the stress out of the application process we allow our students to focus on their studies, achieve the very best exam results possible and pursue their dream pathway to university.
