ISI Dublin’s November tuition promotions offer eligible Non-EU students discounted morning courses and a separate afternoon package for bookings received through November 30, 2026.
The promotions cover two morning timetables and one afternoon package
The November Savings promotion gives eligible Non-EU students 20% off tuition on AY15 Morning and AY20 Morning. Its terms identify those two timetables as eligible for the percentage discount. The promotion names Non-EU students as the eligible group and specifies tuition, rather than a package total, as the item receiving the discount.¹
AY15 Afternoon has a separate Black Friday package with no application fee. The offer covers bookings received from November 2 through November 30, 2026, while eligible course starts extend through June 30, 2028. The booking window and the eligible-start window are separate conditions, so a qualifying booking can be made well before the listed final start date.¹
The listed promotional package totals are €2,500 for AY15 Afternoon, €3,500 for AY15 Morning and €4,460 for AY20 Morning. These are the stated totals for the three options. The 20% reduction applies to tuition on the two morning timetables, while the afternoon option is presented as its own package.¹
Students should therefore distinguish the level range available for the course from the exam included at the end of the package.¹²
Timetables, course levels and the final test differ by option
ISI Dublin lists three timetable choices. AY15 Morning runs Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 12:15, while AY15 Afternoon runs Monday to Thursday from 13:00 to 17:00. AY20 Morning has a 20-hour weekly structure that combines General English with additional elective hours. The choices give students morning and afternoon schedules as well as a longer morning option.¹²

The current Non-EU Academic Year package includes the Oxford Test of English as its final examination. Students should therefore distinguish the level range available for the course from the exam included at the end of the package.¹²
To work in Ireland, students must be enrolled in an English course lasting at least 25 weeks. The average duration of these English courses ranges from six months to two years. The minimum course length is a condition for working, while the wider duration range describes the courses available; the two measures answer different questions about study plans.¹²³
Stamp 2 work limits depend on the academic calendar
Eligible students registered on a valid Stamp 2 permission may work up to 20 hours per week during term time. During official student holiday periods, the limit rises to 40 hours per week. The permission and the student’s registration are conditions for using these work limits; the term-time and holiday allowances are not the same.¹²
The current periods in which students may work up to 40 hours per week are June, July, August and September, plus the period from December 15 to January 15. Those dates define the holiday allowance described for Stamp 2 students. Outside those specified periods, the term-time limit applies.¹²
The current periods in which students may work up to 40 hours per week are June, July, August and September, plus the period from December 15 to January 15.
The stated route to a work visa requires completion of a level 9 or level 10 higher education course. After completing the course, a student can apply for a work visa valid for two years. Level 9 courses generally correspond to master’s and postgraduate degrees; level 10 courses are equivalent to doctorates.¹²³

Hourly pay for roles such as waiter, kitchen assistant, call center attendant and software developer is stated to range from 11.30 to 25 euros. The range covers several different occupations, so it does not give one expected wage for every student or job.²
Working hours in Ireland are generally described as 9am to 5pm, with a one-hour lunch break. Irish people generally work 39 to 48 hours a week. Students have a separate work limit during the academic period, so the general working week should not be read as the hours permitted under student status.¹²³
Ireland offers an English-speaking higher education environment within the European Union. Cork, Limerick and Galway offer distinctive university environments and student experiences. Cork is the second largest city in Ireland and is three hours from Dublin, giving students a city option beyond the capital while keeping a stated travel distance in view.¹²³
Weigh the 25-week rule before booking
If you are a non-EU student planning to work in Ireland, the minimum course length is the first number to check. You must be enrolled in an English course lasting at least 25 weeks to work at all, and the average course runs six months to two years. The November promotions cover 15-hour and 20-hour weekly timetables, but the discount applies only to tuition on the two morning options, not to the afternoon package. Before comparing the €3,500 or €4,460 totals, confirm the course meets the 25-week threshold, or your work plan falls apart.¹²³

Your earning ceiling also depends on the calendar, not just the hourly rate. Stamp 2 students may work 20 hours per week in term time, but the limit rises to 40 hours only during June, July, August, September, and December 15 to January 15. If you time your course start to land in a 40-hour window, you can earn more early on, but the term-time cap applies for the rest of the year. Also note that a work visa requires a level 9 or 10 degree, so an English course alone does not lead to a long-term work permit.¹²
