Ya I was only thinking it this morn, like I've always imagined it to be a huge group thing, but that's not really based on anything :L I know there was someone who was a co-ordinator or something in one of the other colleges, if you're still here do you know how many would be at these orientation things?
Sure it gives you an excuse to go over and visit!

Found this on the NUIG Galway site but
Quote:
How many places are there for HEAR students each year?

Each of the participating colleges set aside a quota of places for HEAR students each year. In 2008, 719 students accepted places in the participating colleges through HEAR. For further information on the number of places available in particular institutions or courses, contact the Access Service in the college of your choice.

In NUI Galway, 15% of places are reserved for non-traditional students. Non traditional students include socio-economically disadvantaged students, mature students and students with a disability. So on average; HEAR students compete for 5% of reserved places in NUI Galway. In 2009, approx 86 students accepted places in NUI Galway through HEAR.

Anyone hear much about the DCU orientation, I mean I got a letter a week ago with some letters to fill in and send back, a map of DCU and what we need etc.. but it doesn't say whether we have to stay or not... I mean is it free for the week to stay? I think I better give them a call in the morning.

I'm pretty sure it is free to stay, and unless you're from Dublin, you probably would be staying, because it's a 4 day thing.

Did you not get a letter with a list?

Anyway, I'd say a change of clothes, sports wear (runners. track suit/whatever) and then toothbrush/paste. Not sure about food, because you could probably just go to a shop there.

What college are you in?

Not sure of its specific to each college but you're looking for the Access students assistance fund. (SAF)
