    Guys do you know who'd i'd go about contacting for a copy of my transcripts for 1st and 2nd year? And would they be able to email them to me? In a rush with them and probably won't manage to get to college tomorrow to get them.

    You need to contact the Records Office.

    I doubt they will e mail them to you due to data protection but you can always ask.

    Anytime I needed my transcripts, I dropped into the office and they printed them up while I waited.

    What do ye think is it an eyesore compared to the quaint South Campus? The Arts block and Science building look pretty awful and everywhere behind JH is stuck in the 1970s.

    I don't think I've bought anything in O'Brien's since I bought a sausage sandwich about 18 months to 2 years ago...and the damned thing was cold.

    My dad stayed in and studied some of those buildings when he was in college in the mid-70s...

    But you see, O'Briens don't 'own' the area. Just because they have O'Briens banners, doesn't mean it should specifically be an area for O'Briens.

    On a side note, O'Briens food is muck anyway.

    It's overpriced shíte

    I was in the reading room today from 10 until 5, girl in the next chair left her stuff at the desk all day... and didn't sit there, for the entire time I was there. She came in every couple of hours to get stuff from her bag, meanwhile, people are looking for seats and can't find them.

    Makes me so angry.

    I've been out of college sick the last week and its looking more and more likely Ill be missing atleast some of next week too.
    I have a medical cert for last week and could get one Monday also, but how does this work Re assignments? Ive a number due this coming week, including a group project and I havnt been able to finalise my parts at all.
    Do I just email the lecturers? Will they extend the deadlines for me/us? Or what happens? Theres very little chance I'd be sharp and focussed enough to contribute anything of use to an assignment for atleast another few days..

    If you're looking for more than a day or two extension you'll need a letter from the doctor explaining you weren't capable of doing them.

    Just email your lecturers and explain the situation. Most understand and will give you the extra time.

    The medical certs should cover that.

    Might depend on the department too. In mine, you can't just mail the lecturers, you have to talk to the head of the department as he's the only one who can grant extensions. And you'd have to do it early, can't ask when it's already too late.

    So double check with your department as quickly as possible.

    Yeah, I've heard in the Psych department you need to ask for the extension 48 hours before the due date. In the CS department you have to have an assignment specific letter for the larger assignments.

    After almost 7 months of waiting I just found out finally that I GOT MY GRANT :D:D

    My sisters was rejected yesterday so I was expecting the same (and I'm slightly still fearing my approval is a mistake)

    but staying optimistic does anyone know how I can find out what kind of grant I got using the online tracker or do I have to wait for the letter to arrive in the post on Monday ?!
