Hello shubhamsahai

Till when UCD accepts application for Sept intake? Do they waiver the IELTS/TOEFL part if we show any proof of our graduation done in english medium?

Ayush

gmatayush IELTS/TOEFL will be required by the university even if you have your education in English. Also, the score is required when you apply for visa too. I am not sure about the deadline as it changes every year, but I guess for last round it wont be before April/May but do check with admissions office.

Narenn Great job creating Forums for discussion. I have a background in IT digital transformation for Banks. Worked for about 5.5 years.
For the admissions and essays, it was more about the clarity of goals(because it's a 1 year programme so you need to go in with a plan) and how the school can help in achieving that.
Hope that helps.

Regards,
Shubh

Hello Guys,

I have also applied for UCD Smurfit. Could you please tell me how does Smurfit update status of application? Is it through email or through the portal application? And how long it takes to update on status?
