Show Notes

University of Galways Bachelor of Arts degree faces a critical decline, with first-year enrollments dropping by 35% since 2019. An internal review warns of a potential 21% further drop in top-choice applications by 2030 due to shrinking secondary school numbers, competition from tech universities, and student preference for job-oriented degrees. The review suggests replacing the broad degree with targeted direct-entry options, while university officials assure no changes before 2028, protecting current enrollees.
