Fees, the scholarship and English

The scholarship is conditional

  • €1,000 off a Level 9 postgraduate programme; €500 off Level 8 and below.
  • Awarded only when the acceptance fee is paid within 30 days of receiving the Confirmed Offer from DBS.
  • The balance of the net fees must be paid before the course starts.
  • Not available on ACCA, Pre-Masters, Pre-Undergraduate programmes or the Certificate in Business & English Language.
  • Terms and conditions apply — confirm your own position with DBS International Admissions.

Two different payment rules

Irish immigration rules set a minimum tuition payment before you lodge a visa application; check the current amount on irishimmigration.ie. DBS may require a higher amount, or full payment, under its own terms. Where DBS asks for more than the immigration minimum, follow the DBS offer letter and payment instructions.

English language requirement

IELTS 6.0 · PTE 52 · DET 105 · TOEFL iBT 76

DBS requires proficiency equivalent to CEFR B2+ or above.

  • Test results must be dated within two years of the course start date.
  • DBS accepts Cambridge English (169–175) and the Oxford Test of English (126–140) as well as the tests above.
  • DBS states there may be additional English requirements for some visa-required countries. Bangladesh is one, so confirm the current requirement with DBS before booking a test.
  • A medium-of-instruction waiver is not automatic, and the visa file needs separate English evidence in any case.
