Trinity is a beautiful place to learn, but it is also fiercely competitive and very study (and money) orientated and often there is a feeling that students come second to such concerns.

Final comments

Try to stay away from all the cliches of visiting Dublin. Some of the traditional sights are fascinating, but don't expect a thatched cottage or dancing at the crossroads - Dublin is a modern city like New York or London and has all the good and bad stuff that goes along with that mantle.

Sharing a flat or house in Ireland is not only more affordable but also a sure way to boost social life and professional contacts, so do not hesitate to go for it

“Exchange Student”

Ireland, Undergraduate
, 2023

Overall

Trinity Business School offers a large opportunity of courses. I personally chose mostly financial courses. Our timetable is really flexible so we also have time to sign in society and sport clubs. The students are really friendly.

Careers

That may be because I'm only an exchange student but they are not helping us to find an internship.

Pros

Large choice of courses
