1. EU Student Contribution Fee
The Student Contribution Charge for the academic year 2026/2027 is €2,500 for Undergraduate students in line with the Budget 2026 annoucement. This is an annual charge, set by the Government for all full-time third level students.
Students can apply to SUSI (Student Universal Support Ireland) for a grant, which, if approved, may cover 100% of the Student Contribution charge. For information on grants go to www.susi.ie.
2. EU Tuition Fees
The EU Tuition fees for the academic year 2026/2027 will be as follows:
Most full-time undergraduate students will be covered by the *Higher Education Authority Free Fees Initiative scheme for their tuition fee, and therefore will only have to pay the aforementioned Student Contribution Fee.
However, students undertaking a second undergraduate programme, non-EU students, students studying by ACCS mode and students taking a year of a programme for a second time (i.e. repeating a year/level) may be liable for tuition fees.
Students who have previously attended another third level programme must complete a previous third-level form and submit it to the Admissions office so that their tuition fee liability can be determined. These forms can be requested from admissions.midwest@tus.ie.
