Yes, you can apply for a student visa to pursue your bachelor's degree in Ireland for either the September 2026 or January 2027 intake. Application windows for September typically open in October of the previous year and close by May, while January intake applications usually open in June and close by November. Visa applications open around May for the September intake and September for the January intake, with processing times of about 4 to 8 weeks. Be sure to prepare your financial documents and meet the English language requirements. If you need guidance based on your background and work experience, your LeapScholar counsellor can support you through each step.
