About

Welcome
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the All Ireland Scholarships website. Here you will find information about the scholarships scheme, the awards ceremony and the alumni association.

The scholarships programme was established in 2008 to support many gifted young students across Ireland by providing them with financial support thus enabling them to participate in all aspects of university life. 125 All Ireland Scholarships from the 32 counties are awarded each year. There are currently a total number of 1,496 recipients, with 905 successful graduates having emerged with primary and post graduate degrees to date.

I fundamentally believe that education, is the key to success and now more than ever is a time for the true spirit of education to be fostered.
