Hide-How To Apply
We encourage all applicants to apply as early as possible.
Online Application
Applications to most postgraduate programmes at NUI Galway are made online via www.nuigalway.ie/apply
The application system will be open from 1 October 2021 to accept applications for entry to the 2022–23 academic year. Applications are submitted via an online form, and a step-bystep guide will assist you through the process. Applicants should select the Course Instance Code(s) for the programme(s) that they are interested in, which are available on each course page of this prospectus and are also on each course website (www.nuigalway.ie/ courses). An application fee will be required, and this is non-refundable. You will require an active email account to use the system.
Application Fee
An application fee of €35 is payable upon making an application and is non-refundable. Upon completing an application for a course, applicants are provided with a discount code to apply for a second course at no extra charge. Therefore the €35 fee will facilitate up to two course applications.
Supporting Documents
When making an online application, most programmes require additional documentation to supplement your application, such as an essay, samples of work, a CV, etc. To see what supporting documents, if any, may be required for your programme, please visit: www.nuigalway.ie/postgrad-admissions
After submitting an application you must then upload the supporting documents.
Your application will not be put forward for review until all the supporting documents have been uploaded and your application status (on your online account) changes to ‘Marked Complete’.
Other Application Routes
A small number of courses have an alternative application system. These alternate routes will be clearly listed on the relevant programme page in this prospectus and in the online course listing at www.nuigalway.ie/courses
When Should I Apply?
Applications are open for entry in 2022 on 1 October 2021. Please note that NUI Galway does not set a deadline for receipt of applications (with some exceptions, see page 315). Course quotas will be reviewed at specified times during the application cycle. As many courses fill up quickly, you are advised to apply early. Programmes which reach their quota before these review dates will not accept new applications. You are advised therefore to apply early to avoid disappointment.
Offers will be issued on a continuous basis, with the exception of applications for some programmes which are reviewed after the specified closing date. NUI Galway aims to review applications within ten working days of receiving a complete application, however application reviews for some programmes may take longer. Upon review of the application, applicants will receive an update on the decision (normally within three weeks of submitting an application). Candidates who do not have their final degree marks available may be made a conditional (provisional) offer. Applications will continue to be reviewed in the summer months if there are still programme places available.
