Online application offers

Congratulations, you have been made an offer to a postgraduate programme at NUI Galway, via the Postgraduate Applications Centre (PAC) online application system. If you intend to accept this offer please read the information below. It is important that you click the ACCEPT / DECLINE button, as appropriate, within your PAC offer.

When you are presented with an online offer in PAC you are also presented with the Terms & Conditions (T&C) that are associated with that offer. You must accept these T&C in order to accept the offer. You can view these T&C here.

NUI Galway must receive your online acceptance AND acceptance deposit fee (non-refundable) within ten days (of offer- date) to secure your programme place. This deposit is off-set against your programme fees, when you register for the 2012–13 academic session.

Accepting an offer

As mentioned above, please confirm acceptance/non-acceptance of the offer via the PAC online system by clicking ACCEPT or DECLINE in the relevant section.

To secure your place you must pay a non-refundable deposit of €500 within ten days (of offer-date)* (bank draft or money/postal order only**, made payable to the National University of Ireland, Galway; cheques not accepted). Sterling or U.S. dollar drafts (equivalent to €500) are also acceptable.

If you are funded by a grant authority or other funding body, or intend to apply for an NUI Galway Postgraduate Scholarship , you are still required to pay the deposit to secure your place. Once the Fees Office at NUI Galway receive your funds from your funding authority, they will organise to send you out a refund of the deposit you've paid.
