- I love the Old Library at Trinity, they have really good books and its always very quiet and feels like i am in a completely different world.
- The college building and architecture is fantastic. Its very old and has great history for the entire Ireland and Dublin city.
- I also loved the international student crowd. Its a great place to connect with other students and make good connections.
Dislikes
- It's really hectic sometimes, managing academic and part time jobs
- Trinity is strict when it comes to studies , we hardly had time for extracurricular activities.
- Trinity ball which is the biggest event is very costly fee for students it should have been free like other colleges
- I found it via WhatsApp groups (Maharashtrians in Dublin - A whatsapp group), there are also other platforms like DNG housing website, Facebook groups but most effective is WhatsApp groups. I didn't go to any agent
- My rent is around 650 euros a month excluding bills, All facilities like washing machine, WIfi, heating, fridge, electricity, separate bed and separate bathroom everything is available.
- Many websites have fake accommodation, so don't book any permanent accommodation from India, go for temporary one, please do an online viewing if available to verify or send any friends for in person viewing. Don't send money to any fake ID or person
- Go there and search and find a good accommodation with correct documentation.
- Most students stay in Private accommodations as student accommodations are very costly in Dublin. My accommodation is 30 mins by dart or bus in South Dublin so its easy to commute to college.

- The college buildings are absolutely stunning. I loved them a lot and it feels like I am in the Harry Potter world.
- There are so many Trinity clubs and societies, I made good friends and connections through them.
- Pheonic labs is amazing place for CS Grads, I would say the best place on campus to study
Dislikes
- Trinity is great but it focuses more on research which may be a little down point for students looking for internship opportunities during the course.
- Trinity is very very Strict. Very harsh policies towards plagiarism and AI use for assignments. They detain you for such things.
- It can be very stressful sometimes to manage academics and yourself if you are an international student.
- I found it via Whatsapp groups, there are also other platforms like DNG housing website, Facebook groups but most effective is whatsapp groups. I didn't go to any agent.

Likes
- Structure of curriculum : Almost all contents taught are state of art or very least being advancements in field.
- Campus : Campus is huge and there is lot of diversity.
- Lab Infrastructure : All the machines are fitted with latest hardware and software components which are essential for experiments and research.
Dislikes
- Too Fast Teaching Sem : Limited time available, requiring highly efficient time management.
- Compulsory Dissertation : Flexibility to do internship should have been an option.
- Lack of space for eating : Most of the libraries lack eating spacing making it difficult to manage.
- I found my accommodation via a real estate agent. However, there are multiple online platforms and groups on social media, i.e., WhatsApp and Facebook, that can be looked for accommodation.
- My monthly rent was around 550 € (a total of 2200 € for 1 Bhk) with the water bill included. However, electricity was charged extra as per use and came to around 50 € per person.
- Challenges: Suitable apartments are difficult to find and more delays lead to an increased amount in student accommodation. In my case, I had to pay extra brokerage to secure my apartment apart from the deposit.
- My recommendation would be students should look out as early as possible; however, do not fall for a scam and verify the landlord, real estate agent or any responsible person for the deal.
- My apartment was 3 km away from the college campus. Most Indians choose student accommodation, which is situated near universities in most cases.












Likes
- The infrastructure of the college made it feel nice to be able to come to college every day.
- Facilities provided, TCD has very good career consultant. And there are many study rooms which you can book for group meeting or just exam prep.
- The one year course duration, it's nice to be able to complete a masters degree within 1 year.
Dislikes
- The selection of students, I feel like they could have refined the selection of students a bit better, it often felt like I was one of the smartest in the room out of a class of 100 people.
- My course was mostly graded by group projects, Sometimes I personally had to carry the workload for the entire project.
- Professors were a bit too lenient, I feel like a lot of students settled for the bare minimum in projects because of how calm and relaxed the Professors were.
- I mainly used an app called Daft, which is meant for rental apartments in Ireland, but I was lucky enough to find my accommodation through whatsapp groups. I would say whatsapp groups are the best way to get directly in contact with owners and landlords.
- 550 per month was the monthly rent for my accommodation, including Wi-Fi and electricity .
- It just took a lot of time and constant effort to find accommodation since I decided to go for a shared apartment since it would be way cheaper than a student accommodation.
- I would say trying to find a shared apartment would be a better idea since you would be paying a lot less compared to a student accommodation, which would be around 1100 euros per month.
- My accommodation is 20 kms from college; it takes me 35 to 40 minutes to go by train, but by car it is 20 minutes.
- Most Indian students do stay near college, but they pay double the rent to save up on time and comfort.








Likes
- It has a mix of both technical and practical aspects in its programmes.
- You get amazing career services and consultancy from career counsellors.
- More than the academic bit, it also becomes one of the cultural points of learning a lot about Ireland as well as the college. It has Kells of Experience which is one of the biggest libraries in the Europe and has a lot of historical information.
Dislikes
- Sometimes the schedule gets a bit hectic but its different for different courses.
- It is very difficult to get accommodation in the college as very less number of rooms are available.
- Specifically, apart from these, there is not much to hate about the college at all.
- Off Campus accommodation.
- I had someone staying here as a family friend so they were kind enough to help me with a few people who were interested in renting their place.
- Monthly rent is anywhere between 900-1200 euros, not disclosing the actual figures. Every facility is included in it.
- My accommodation is 45 minutes by bus. It's not technically in Dublin, just a little outside of the Dublin border.

Likes
- The course structure is intensive enough to cover a vast number of topics regarding Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Systems
- The assignments are very detailed and provide a great way of learning the state of the art techniques.
- The campus being in the centre of the city provides a lot of opportunities for job search, recruiting events happening around Dublin with a great connectivity with public transport.
Dislikes
- Due to being a major tourist attraction from around the world, Trinity faces a lot of overcrowding and often during day major spots and lunch areas are crowded with tourists.
- High cost and limited student living options are available which forces students to find accommodation outside of campus and travel time to and fro college increases.
- The course being very particular and hectic does not provide often much time to explore student activities or enjoy college organised events.
- I found accommodation via friends who were already in Dublin. One of my friend was leaving dublin for India and I took over the lease agreement from him.
- Monthly rent for 2 people:- 1400 euros all facilities like dishwashers, fridge, TV, washing machine, heater were included.
- recommendations for future students:- Start finding accommodation early as there is a lot of crisis in finding accommodations, keep an eye out on scams which take place in rental properties. Also it's better if you can find contacts who can view properties for you in Dublin as that is the best way.
- My accommodation is 25 mins walk from college but the rent is a bit on the higher side.




Likes
- The college provides best in class infrastructure, Students have access to dedicated labs with GPUs and libraries that are accessible 24/7.
- Courses are highly practical based, majority of the grading is done on the basis of Assignments rather than written examinations.
- The faculty are very knowledgeable and are experts in their field with many of them having relevant industry experience as well.
Dislikes
- Very difficult to get a scholarship especially as a taught postgraduate student compared to other universities.
- Assignment work load is very high leaving no time to prepare for job interviews or working part time.
- Due to campus being located in the city centre it is expensive to live close by and you need to find accommodation further away to save on rent.
-
I opted for Off campus accommodation
-
I found it using online whatsapp groups and daft.ie website.
Monthly rent is 850 €
-
Facilities included:
Kitchen (Including Microwave and Toaster)
Washing Machine - Challenges Faced were that there is high demand and low availability, accommodation would often get booked before you could get to confirm it.
- I would recommend future students to look for accommodation through friends/family already living in Dublin.
- My accommodation is around 4Kms away from campus.
- There is no specific locality commonly used by Indian students, Although Dublin 8 is a popular location for Trinity Students to stay.












Likes
- Student support throughout the course, be it mentally or financially. Designated counseling facilities. A lot of extracurricular activities to participate in.
Dislikes
- Level of depth of the classes conducted. The professor would not go into the details of the subject. Less availability for the professors to ask queries and doubts as most of them were visiting faculty.
I chose this university as having good experience in an Insurance company back in India, I wanted to pursue my further education in the Risk Management field. Trinity was the best one to study in Ireland. Overall experience was positive, the college is very international with good infrastructure and facilities on campus. Good overall support was available to students for any problems faced during the course.
Likes
- Even the professors are highly knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
Dislikes
- Having said that a few of the courses however have a high teacher to student ratio which makes it a little difficult to get individual attention
I chose this college as Trinity ranks among the top 100 universities in the world and is the top Irish university. I've had an excellent time here and I'd definitely recommend Trinity for masters.
Likes
- I was drawn to the academic output given by the college in my preferred fields of computer science and physics. I was inclined to join the cohorts due to the long standing legacy and quality of education. I have always been passionate about computers since I could press key and play mine-craft. Wanting to pursue cs with like-minded people; the crème de la crème is what I looked forward to most.
- I like that all of the courses have a do-it-yourself element to it. Making the projects rather than regurgitating the textbook makes more sense to me, it's a more practical way to learn for me. I learn more when I troubleshoot the problem practically with my hand.
Dislikes
- I don't like that there is all stakes on the just the final exams. There could be more internal and project components. I'd like the professors to be a little more clear with the contents of the syllabus and give exact details well before the final exam.
I appreciate the rigorous academic environment, cutting-edge curriculum, and access to advanced resources. The vibrant tech community fosters collaboration, and the faculty's expertise enhances my learning. The blend of theoretical knowledge and practical skills prepares me for a dynamic career in the ever-evolving tech industry.
