Information on Undergraduate Fees

1. Student Contribution Fee

The Student Contribution Charge for the academic year 2022/2023 is €3,000. This is an annual charge, set by the Government for all full-time third level students.

Students can apply to SUSI (Student Universal Support Ireland) for a grant, which, if approved, may cover 100% of the Student Contribution charge. For information on grants go to www.susi.ie.

2. EU Tuition Fees

The EU Tuition fees for the academic year 2022/2023 will be as follows:

Most full-time undergraduate students will be covered by the *Higher Education Authority Free Fees Initiative scheme for their tuition fee, and therefore will only have to pay the aforementioned Student Contribution Fee.

However, students undertaking a second undergraduate programme, non-EU students, students studying by ACCS mode and students taking a year of a programme for a second time (i.e. repeating a year/level) may be liable for tuition fees.

Students who have previously attended another third level programme must complete a previous third-level form and submit it to the Admissions office so that their tuition fee liability can be determined. These forms can be requested from admissions@lit.ie.

Programme  Level   Annual EU Tuition Fee Rate
Higher Certificate (Level 6)              €250
Ordinary Degree (Level 7)       €250
Honours Degree (Level 8)    €819
Honours Degree - Engineering (Level 8)  €1,450
