Climate
Average winter temperatures is 43°F/6°C and summer average is generally around 65°F/18°C, so it's never too cold or too hot.
Ireland's climate can be summed up as being mild, moist and changeable with abundant rainfall and a lack of temperature extremes. You might experience all four seasons in the one day, so don’t forget to be ready for the rain!
Living Costs
Before deciding to move to Ireland, you should ensure that you have sufficient funds to cover your costs of living. As an International Student, you may be able to undertake part-time work during your time here, but you should not rely on this income to meet all your expenses.
Precisely how much you will need will vary depending on where you are studying in Ireland, on the type of accommodation you choose and, of course, on your own personal lifestyle. Accommodation costs can increase overall living costs, mainly in Dublin city centre. But, on average, we estimate that a student might spend between €3,000 and €5,500 per semester.
