University College Cork also saw a rise to 181 from 184 last year. It was ranked 386th in 2006. UCC is also the first Irish university to achieve a five-star rating in the rankings. The new rating system was introduced by QS to simplify the comparison of universities on an international basis. It reviews participating universities on research, employability, teaching, infrastructure, internationalisation, innovation, engagement and specialisations. UCC president Dr Michael Murphy said the ranking reflected the hard work of the entire UCC community and described it as an outstanding achievement. The student body at UCC is around 20,000, with around 2,800 overseas students on campus.

If you do pay now it should only be €2150 (€2000 reg + €150 capitation). I didn't pay mine but on one of the options, I think it was fees, it had €7150 or something like that. Which would only apply if you were repeating or the government weren't paying your fees.
