Simon Harris: €3k college registration fees 'too high' but they will have to be paid this year

Minister for Further and Higher Education Simon Harris said that the €3,000 registration fee can be paid in two instalments.

More third-level places for in-demand courses including teaching and nursing are to be made available, the Minister for Higher Education has said.

However, students will have to pay the full €3,000 registration fee this year even if much of their learning is online, Simon Harris has said.
