Students from Ireland
Study Abroad - Study Scotland!
Scotland is a desirable destination, and home to over 5 million people. The culture and traditions of Scotland are renowned throughout the world. The food, music, costume, literature, poetry and landscape of Scotland all attract people, but more importantly – the friendliness of the Scots and their welcome to newcomers sets them apart.
Scotland hosts over 1.5 million visitors each year and over 25000 foreign students choose Scotland for the high quality education and the exciting, varied and hospitable experiences it offers.
Scotland is home to castles, lochs, whisky, mountains, the highlands and islands, beaches and wilderness areas, swirling kilts and skirling bagpipes. Historically the playground and battlefield of famous Kings and Queens, ghosts and monsters, and more recently the mysterious backdrop to many scenes in the Harry Potter movies.
