Ireland: Non-EEA student numbers up 45% in five years
The number of students enrolling in Ireland for higher education has been increased by 45% between 2013 and 2017 due to the increased number of non-European Economic Area. However, one finds difficulty in finding accommodation and employment. It was noticed that all those who have been issued a permit for study in a full-time higher education program in 2017, 25% were from the US, 17% from India, 15% from Brazil, 14% from China and 5% from Canada. The top country of origin of non-EEA students enrolled in full-time higher education in Ireland was China between 2013 and 2017. Ireland is successfully attracting and retaining increased numbers of higher-level non-EEA students. Ireland allows all the non-EEA students to remain for 12 to 24 months after the completion of the degree to look for work under the Third Level Graduate Programme. In 2017, 2,090 non-EEA students were allowed to stay in the country under the TLGP. However, it is been observed by the report highlights that some students face some difficulties like delays in immigration registration, securing affordable student accommodation and transition to employment after graduation. It is noticed that most of the time employers are not always aware that non-EEA students are entitled to work under the TLGP that’s why non-EEA students find difficulty in finding work. Some students have reported that delays cause stress and anxiety in relation to their legal status and have a negative impact on their academic experience in Ireland. Some positive immigration changes have been observed this year and it is been hoped that this will continue and solutions will be found to make booking and immigration appointment easier.

Best thing about Vivek Gupta Sir is his selfless counselling. As I am already a BSC/ MSC, he suggested me to go to Philippines as I was able to get straight admission into MD and this finishes my entire course in 4 years flat. In any other country, it would have taken by 5.5-6 years. Ms Kanimojhi in Chennai office of GKWorks was equally supportive in coordination regarding documents, departure and all other formalities.
We live 100 Km’s away from Varanasi. The internet connection in our town is very weak and my parents are not that educated. For us, understanding the word RTGS was also very difficult. Thanks to Amit Pandey Sir, who is Gkworks Varanasi incharge, he helped us to do all small things. Going with us to get forex to helping us doing RTGS for fee payment, he was always there with us. He only helped us to apply for passport online and went with us to passport office Varanasi. Such support at ground level was provided by GKworks team both in Varanasi and Delhi.
My parents were not very comfortable to send me abroad especially my mother as I am the only son of my parents. I really wanted to become a doctor and thus approached Hemant Mishra Sir, director of Bareilly branch of GKWorks. He went out of his way to convince my mother. He would have come 5 times to my home, invited us to his office and home 10 times before my mother was finally convinced. It is only due to Hemant Sir in Bareilly that I am pursuing my course today. I wish GKworks and especially Bareilly branch all the very best to help many more students for their life dreams.
