Pre-Arrival Programme

Welcome to National College of Ireland

We are delighted you chose to study at National College of Ireland. The NCI International Pre-Arrival Programme is a bespoke programme designed to help you prepare and plan for a successful, safe and stress-free journey to Ireland. It is delivered online and commences twelve weeks before classes start. We strongly encourage all new students to take part in the programme, which includes the following:

• Tuesdays: you will receive a weekly newsletter by email that covers a key topic with helpful resources.
• Thursdays: we will host a webinar on the week's topic, and you will have the opportunity to ask real-time questions (webinars will also be recorded and be made available on the NCI Unibuddy Community).
• NCI Unibuddy community: you will be invited to an exclusive fresher community group where you will have the opportunity to connect with other new students and receive International Support announcements.
