hello guys i was wondering Does anyone here have any information about IT companies sponsoring or offering scholarships for 3rd level education??? :?:
i’ve been staying in Ireland for 3 yrs now..but unfortunately i’m not entitled for any grants..so college fees are a bit.. :shock: :shock:… :shock: :shock: -
id love to know more about that too.
Same situation as you…I dropped college in the 3rd year, wasnt happy about it, always wanted to do games, then I came over here…
i found many options about finishing my degree around here,
I have my eyes now on : DIT – MSc in Digital Games
very very interesting, but once again, the fees… :shock: :shock:If only it wasnt full time i could manage to work for a year to raise money and then work/study
But well… indie games ftw =)

Dont think you can do a MSc without finishing your undergraduate primary degree? As its a masters of science and welll you need to finish a degree first to master it ;)

No exception at all? :D
I thought work experience would count, or not really?

Doubt it..
Work experience only counts towards MBA ( masters in biz admin ).Also alot of MSc have pre-requiste entry of 2.1H or higher. So recommend ya go back and get your undegrad degree. ;)

Pretty certain the EA Uni scheme isn’t what you are looking for, or is even still running. Your best bet would be to email EA HR about it and ask.
If you are a EU citizen and you study a post-grad abroad, I think you can get EU bursaries to cover fees, but I’m not sure what the situation is with undergrad courses. You would need to check the the governing body for the country you are studying in.
I’ve been abroad for a good few years now, so don’t really know what the situation in Ireland with this is these days. -
Can we stop with the smily faces please!!!!
As for EA uni i dont think thats to the general joe its internally for EA employees to take course and expand their existing knowledge.

They had something else though a few year ago…I think it may have been for internships or something similar for uni students.

That was probably the EA Academy which was, as you guessed, to do with internships within the company. As far as I’m aware, while the program still runs under that name in the US, it was re-branded in Europe into a more traditional intern scheme. More details can be found here.
