Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

I know you have to wait to get an offer and then you go on the website and book a place. But isn't there a personal statement needed? Anyone have any idea how long it should be and what I should include?

Yes there is a personal statement needed. Search through the TCD forum and you will find plenty of tips on what to do

It has a limit of 1800 characters, including spaces. Write a draft in Word, and see how long it is, I'd recommend using the limit if you can. Write about what you can contribute to Halls, and why you deserve a place in Halls.
