    Great college and experience

    I attended AIT from 2016-2020 and it was amazing. The people I met there and the Craic we had was special. We lived in a six bedroom house near the college and was some laugh. We were regular charlie browns fans and was sad to see it burned down the year after I left in 2021.

    ​Technological University of the Shannon (TUS)

    Athlone Institute of Technology (AIT), now the Athlone Campus of the Technological University of the Shannon (TUS), are overwhelmingly positive, highlighting its strength as a student-centric and practical institution. Students consistently praise the campus for its friendly, inclusive atmosphere and high safety ratings. The academic experience is noted for being industry-aligned, with a practical, hands-on approach that leads to one of Ireland’s highest graduate employment rates. Key facilities, particularly the world-class sports arena and modern labs, receive high marks. A significant financial advantage is the campus’s location in Athlone, which offers a lower cost of living and more affordable accommodation compared to major Irish cities, making it an excellent value for money choice. However, some students note the downside of a smaller town setting, which translates to a less vibrant nightlife and fewer local part-time job opportunities than a large metropolitan area.
