Ireland Cost & living - Education loans
35 questions
Expert Answers
Is the bank sanction letter alone enough proof of funds for the visa, or do I also need to have money in my bank account as a basement of the loan in Ireland?
→Is a large education loan worth the risk for a Business Analytics master's from Trinity College Dublin given the job market?
→It depends heavily on your profile. With one to three years of prior data or tech experience, a Trinity Dublin degree, costing around EUR 39,000, is worth the risk since Irish employers value that combination highly. As a fresh graduate with no experience, the same loan is far riskier.
Is it worth leaving a stable software engineering job in India to pursue a master's in Ireland without financial support from family?
→If you have two or more years of solid software experience, leaving your job for a self-funded Irish masters can work, since Irish developer salaries reach roughly Rs. 50-78 lakh a year, but freshers with under 1.5 years risk a costly, jobless gap after graduation.
How risky is taking a ₹30 lakh education loan for a master's in Ireland, considering job prospects and loan repayment after graduation?
→A rupees 30 lakh loan carries moderate to high risk, since your EMI runs near rupees 40,000 a month. An Irish job paying EUR 32,000 to 45,000 makes repayment manageable, but returning to India without one can mean that EMI eats 40 to 80 percent of a typical graduate salary.
