During this unprecedented time of COVID-19, we have had to look at new ways of doing things.
Students and families around the world are facing many challenges associated with COVID-19 including of course financial difficulties.
Accordingly, DBS will not, as it has done in previous years, be increasing it's tuition fees for the 2021 - 2022 Academic Year commencing in September.
We hope that this action will afford our students the opportunity to study in Ireland, at DBS, where they might not otherwise be in a position to do so.
Additionally, for the 2021 - 2022 Academic Year, we will continue to offer or scholarships for both undergraduate and postgraduate studies.
Schedule A Student Seminar Or Training With The DBS International Admissions Team
Traditionally at this time of year members of the DBS International Admission Team would be gearing up to visit our partner agents and students around the world.
Due to current travel restrictions, of course, that is not possible. Nevertheless, the International Admissions team stands ready to schedule online seminars that can be tailored for prospective students or DBS product and process training for agency staff.
If this is something that you would like to explore please let us know by emailing international@dbs.ie
