About Griffith College Dublin

Griffith College Dublin is one of Ireland's largest independent private colleges, founded in 1974 and awarding degrees validated by Ireland's Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI) authority and the University of Limerick. Located on a Victorian-era campus in South Circular Road, Dublin 8, Griffith is known for practical programs in business, law, journalism, music, computing, culinary arts, and social science — and for its very high proportion of international students, who represent nearly 45% of enrollment.

Griffith College is a popular choice for international students seeking a more accessible entry into Irish higher education — it has a strong track record of admitting students who may not meet the requirements of Ireland's research universities, and has developed robust English language support and student welfare services specifically for the international community. The college also has campuses in Cork and Limerick. Programs lead to QQI-accredited degrees that are fully recognized in Ireland for employment and progression purposes, and graduates qualify for the TLGP post-study work permission.

For Nepali students

  • More accessible IELTS requirement (5.5 minimum) than Irish research universities — viable for students who want to improve after admission
  • 45% international student body — one of the most welcoming campuses in Ireland for South Asian students; strong established networks
  • Law and journalism programs in Dublin are popular and career-relevant — both fields benefit from the rich Irish professional ecosystem
  • Degrees validated by QQI and UL — fully recognized for employment and further study progression in Ireland and internationally
  • 24-month TLGP post-study work permission after graduation — same entitlement as students from state universities
