ireland Student Visa

ireland Student Visa
Applying for an Irish student visa allows a foreign national the opportunity to immigrate to Ireland on a temporary basis in order to undertake a course of study in the country.
Studying in Ireland is an increasingly popular option for undergraduates across the world; Ireland offers a long history of excellence in learning with nine universities, fourteen institutes of technology and a host of other educational establishments.
Immigration to Ireland has grown significantly in recent years due in part to a comparatively liberal immigration policy coupled with the high quality of life which can be obtained in the country.

Visa Benefits
In Ireland, study visas allow their holders to live and work in Ireland for as long as they need to complete their course.
In Ireland, visas of this kind are issued as either a "C visa" for those applicants whose courses will last less than three months or "D visas" for those who wish to study in Ireland for longer than three months.
Whilst in Ireland, study visa status is not in its own right a route to permanent settlement in Ireland, the Graduate Programme will in some circumstance enable students to switch to an Irish work visa.
This may, in time, lead to the opportunity to apply for permanent residence and naturalisation as an Irish citizen.
Ireland also permits foreign nationals studying in the country to undertake a limited amount of work in order to help support themselves and any dependents.
