The Irish Way utilizes facilities and
accommodations of three different campuses in Ireland. From the
coastal feel of Newtown School in Waterford, to the lively city
living at King’s Hospital in Dublin, and the cobblestone streets
found around Gort na Coiribe in Galway, students will be immersed in
the historic culture and rich academics of Ireland.
While all of the campuses and boarding facilities encourage
peer-to-peer interaction through communal living, each differs from
the other, offering unique characteristics and highlights throughout
their environment and surroundings. Dormitory living in Ireland will
be fun and exciting, but different from what students may experience
in the US. Dorms are efficient and functional. Boys and girls will
always be assigned to different dormitories.
