Course Fees

At Cavan Institute, we believe that quality education should be within everyone’s reach. That’s why our courses continue to be offered at a simple, affordable fee of just €200.

To support student access to facilities and a wide range of campus services, an additional €50 student services charge applies, bringing the total amount payable by students to €250. This contribution helps ensure students can benefit from essential supports and resources throughout their time at the Institute.
Overall, we’re proud to offer a diverse range of courses at a price that remains significantly lower than that of many other colleges.

Do you have a Medical Card?

A valid medical card will exempt you from the €50 QQI exam fee, where applicable, reducing the total amount payable to €200.
