There are over 80 nationalities represented among the Maynooth student population! While it is exciting to start your studies in a new country this can present a challenge as you get used to new cultures and making friends. But don’t worry, there are specific supports available to help you get the most from your University experience.
In the SU we have a Study Abroad & ERASMUS+ Senator. Part of their role is to ensure the needs of international students are represented at Student Senate. Also available is the I*ESN (Erasmus Student Network). This is a society that brings together both International and Irish students to ensure incoming internationals enjoy their time in Maynooth. They plan trips and events in order to bring people together, make friends and create lifelong memories!
In the University there is a dedicated International Office based in Humanity House who can assist you and answer any questions you may have. Just email: international.office@mu.ie
