Is a three-year bachelor's degree acceptable for a one-year master's program in Ireland?

It depends. Most master's programs in Ireland require a four-year honours bachelor's degree (Level 8) for direct entry.

- Three-year bachelor's degrees are typically considered Level 7 and may not meet standard entry requirements.
- Some universities offer pathways, such as a one-year add-on program, to upgrade a three-year degree to Level 8.
- A few institutions may consider applicants with a three-year degree if you have relevant work experience or additional qualifications.

Entry requirements vary by university and program. Please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor to review your options based on your academic background.
