Most Irish universities require an English language test like IELTS or Duolingo unless your previous degree was fully taught in English and the university waives the test. Since you have a nursing degree, check each program’s exact requirements. If your college can provide a letter stating your degree was taught in English, some universities may accept that. Review the requirements carefully for each application before deciding.
