What you need to apply
General country requirements
This entry is general Bachelor’s admission in Ireland: the university is in the catalogue but its individual programme pages are not verified yet, so the country's general requirements are shown instead.
Check the university’s own page before you plan around it.
Ireland, bachelor’s
An international student normally applies to an Irish bachelor programme directly to the institution; first-year undergraduate applications are processed centrally by the CAO, while the institutions themselves decide on admission. Teaching is in English, and the programme must be on the ILEP, full-time and daytime. The visa English minima are IELTS Academic 5.0, TOEFL iBT 61, PTE Academic 30 or Duolingo 75, and the university's own minimum may be higher. Financial evidence means immediate access to at least EUR 10,000 plus the fees; after arrival you register at Burgh Quay for EUR 300 and private medical insurance is compulsory.
With an Uzbek attestat (11 years)
Foundation year
No official page states that an 11-year Uzbek attestat is enough for direct entry to a bachelor programme. QQI says only that a NARIC Ireland comparability statement is advice and that the institution's admissions staff make the decision. Because the source is silent, the most conservative option is taken: a foundation year first (Immigration Service Delivery defines foundation level as NFQ Level 5 and foundation programmes are listed on the ILEP), then the bachelor programme. Ask your chosen university in writing whether it accepts your attestat directly.
Documents
Passport
Immigration Service Delivery asks for the biometric page of your current valid passport at registration, together with the entry visa and the landing stamp that correspond to the permission you are registering.
School certificate
Your Uzbek school-leaving attestat is the qualification the Irish institution assesses; QQI states that decisions on recognising a qualification for educational purposes are made by the individual education and training admissions staff.
Academic transcript
Not checked yetThe grade supplement to the attestat, submitted with it so the admissions office can see the subjects and marks behind the certificate.
English certificate
The English language certificate itself, from one of the test providers named in the Immigration Service Delivery table, is part of the study visa application.
Certified translation
Not checked yetA translation of the education documents into English, because NARIC Ireland and the Irish institution assess a qualification awarded by a nationally recognised awarding body in your country of origin. Neither page read in this run names the form the translation must take, so ask the institution whether a sworn or a notarised translation is required.
Apostille
Not checked yetThe HCCH status table for the Apostille Convention lists both Uzbekistan, which acceded on 25 July 2011 with entry into force on 15 April 2012, and Ireland, for which the Convention entered into force on 9 March 1999, as contracting parties, so an apostille from the Uzbek competent authority takes the place of consular legalisation. No Irish page read in this run states an apostille requirement for admission, so confirm with the institution what legalisation it wants.
Financial statement
Immigration Service Delivery states that for all academic courses due to begin after 1 July 2023 a visa required applicant must show evidence of immediate access to at least EUR 10,000, plus the course fees, and must provide an up-to-date bank statement showing money paid into and out of the account over the last six months; credit cards are not accepted as evidence of finances.

Other requirements
Application made directly to the higher education institution, or through the CAO where the institution routes first-year undergraduate applications that way
The CAO states that the higher education institutions in the Republic of Ireland have delegated to CAO the task of processing centrally applications to their first year undergraduate courses, and that the participating institutions retain the function of making decisions on admissions; Education in Ireland adds that most Irish institutions require students to apply directly through their official website.
Enrolment on a full-time daytime programme listed on the Interim List of Eligible Programmes (ILEP)
Immigration Service Delivery's student FAQ states that a non-EEA national coming to study in Ireland must be enrolled in a full-time course or programme on the Interim List of Eligible Programmes (ILEP), that in order to be granted student permission you must enrol on a full-time day time programme, and that part-time or distance learning courses do not qualify for student permission.
Letter of enrolment from the college and proof that the fees have been paid
Immigration Service Delivery states that a non-EEA or non-Swiss national who wants to study in Ireland will need to have a letter of enrolment and to have paid their fees.
Private medical insurance valid for the stay, shown in the original at registration
Immigration Service Delivery's student FAQ states that all non-EEA students coming to Ireland need to have private medical insurance and that you will be asked to show proof of it when you register; the required-documents page adds that original documents including private medical insurance with the required cover must be produced at first-time registration and that cash-back policies are not accepted.
Long stay visa applied for before travelling, where your nationality requires one
Immigration Service Delivery states that depending on your nationality you may also have to apply for a visa, and that depending on the duration of your study you will have to apply for either a short stay visa or a long stay visa before coming to Ireland; if you are staying longer than 90 days you also have to register after arriving. The page names no visa category letter and no application system, so none is given here.
Visa application submitted in good time — Education in Ireland states you can apply up to 3 months before your date of travel
Education in Ireland states that for visa-required nationals you can apply for a visa up to 3 months before your date of travel to Ireland.
First-time immigration registration at the Registration Office in Burgh Quay, Dublin; the registration fee is EUR 300
Immigration Service Delivery states that all non-EEA students, including those who do not require a visa, must register for the first time to remain in Ireland for more than 90 days, and that the registration fee is EUR 300.
NARIC Ireland comparability statement for the school-leaving certificate, where the institution asks for oneOptional
QQI states that NARIC Ireland recognises foreign qualifications by providing online comparability statements against Ireland's National Framework of Qualifications, that a comparability statement only provides advice and is not a legal document, and that decisions on recognising your qualification for educational purposes will be made by the individual education and training admissions staff.
