Entry requirements for Irish students

• SRH accepts a school-leaving certificate that gives access to university in your home country. It publishes nothing specific on the Irish Leaving Cert, so the German (KMK/ZAB) rules apply. The Leaving Cert gives direct university entry only with the right subjects and levels. You need six subjects, including two languages and Maths at O5/H6 or better. Two of the six must be Higher Level at H5 or better, and the other four at least O6/H6. If computing counts as maths and science, German rules also ask for Higher Level Maths at H5 and a Higher Level science at H5. SRH also offers direct entry through conditional enrolment, and a foundation year at SRH International College. Confirm with SRH admissions how your subjects will be assessed. LCA and LCVP are not accepted.
• There is no entrance exam, but every applicant who meets the requirements has an admissions interview. You also need a CV and a copy of your passport or ID card.
• English: SRH asks for an English certificate less than two years old. Accepted results: IELTS 6.5, TOEFL iBT 87, Cambridge B2 First grade A or B (C1/C2 grade A to C), Duolingo 110, PTE Academic 59, TOEIC 785, Linguaskill 176 or Password Skills Plus 6.5. If you do not have one, you can take SRH’s own English Proficiency Certificate test. SRH publishes no exemption for native speakers, so ask admissions whether Leaving Cert English is enough.

Costs

• SRH University is a private, state-recognised university, so you pay tuition. EU/EEA students pay €790 a month (about €9,480 a year), and SRH says the fee stays the same for the whole programme. You also pay a one-off enrolment fee of €750. Over 42 months, tuition alone comes to about €33,180. Ask SRH about scholarships and discounts.
