Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a deadline to enrol?
There are no application deadlines for our Diploma Courses but places are filled up quickly so we would advise you to apply as early as possible. Since our courses are built around a modular system, you can join our course at different periods during the year.
Can I work part-time in Ireland while I am a student?
If you are from a European Economic Area (EEA) country, you can work in Ireland without permission.
What do the Course fees cover?
The course fees cover teaching, assessment, examinations, and graduation.
The course fees do NOT cover the costs of any fieldwork, additional residential courses, travel, books, stationery, photocopying, accommodation, or living costs.
How do I pay my course fees?
Fees are payable in full at the beginning of each academic year of your course. If you are member of the EEA, it is possible to pay your course fees in monthly instalments.
I have been asked to pay ‘enrolment fees’. When should I pay these?
Enrolment fees must be paid within 7 days of your enrolment being approved. If you enrol for several courses (such as Medicine, Naturopathy, and Specialist Training) you will only have to pay the enrolment fee ONCE.
I cannot afford to pay the course fees. Will I be eligible for a loan?
The CNM can not make loans to students to pay course fees. If you need to take out a loan to pay your course fees, you are advised to make arrangements for this before you begin your course of study.
Students may apply to pay by installment from the first year of study - for more information contact dublininfo@naturopathy-ireland.com.
Do I need to register with the Police?
If your visa states “Register with Ireland police on arrival” or “Register with the police within seven days”, you must do this within the time limit stated
Can I drive a car in Ireland?
If you drive a car in Ireland you must make sure that the car is registered, taxed and insured for your use. It is against the law to drive without all the documents relating to registration, road tax and insurance being fully up-to-date.
If you have a full driving licence from an EEA country you are allowed to drive in Ireland for as long as your licence remains valid.
If you have a licence issued by a non-EEA country you are allowed to drive in Ireland for 12 months after your arrival using your international licence but after your first 12 months in Ireland you must have a full IE licence.
