Incoming students are mainly accommodated in College residences at Trinity Hall. Applications from Leaving Certificate students will be accepted once CAO offers have been made in the middle of August. Non EU students can apply as soon as they have confirmed acceptance of an offer of a place in Trinity College and have received their TCD ID number

Please refer to the Other Links Section for the relevant links for accommodation.

All non-Irish nationals who are not citizens of the EU/EEA or Switzerland must register in person with the Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB) after arrival and after completion of registration at UCD. The GNIB will issue you with a residence permit/GNIB card. The fee for this card is €150 and must be paid by credit card, laser card or bank transfer. This fee cannot be paid in cash.

As a student it can be difficult to get because many insurance policies depend on you owning your accommodation. This is the case with the main banks and insurance companies in Dublin.

You may be able to negotiate insurance cover with your insurance providers at home. Alternatively, extended travel insurance could cover your stay, depending on the insurance vendor

As stated in the Health Emergencies section, only medical card holders, British and Northern Irish full-time students and EU students who have a valid E111, E109 or E128 form are entitled to free state healthcare. Those who do not fall within these criteria must have health insurance. Students applying for a student visa to Ireland will have to show evidence of private healthcare insurance before qualifying for the visa.

There are three main healthcare providers in Ireland, VHI (Voluntary Health Insurance), Quinn Healthcare and Vivas Health. All provide various healthcare plans that cover the cost of private or semi-private healthcare. The College operates a Group Scheme for both VHI and BUPA for staff. For details, contact the Staff Office.
