    Has rent there fallen in line with other accommodation in the city?

    Yep, along with campus accommodation. But only by a token amount of a couple of hundred for the entire year, I think.

    Needs more deregulation.

    Has anyone who got a second round offer (i.e. today) managed to register to apply for trinity hall on the accommodation site? My sister has been trying unsuccessfully all day.

    It takes a while to update the system, people who applied first round had the same problems!

    91 is the house number.

    09 is the apartment number within the house

    and 06 is the room number within the apartment!

    Not usually.

    The only apartment that has people selected specifically is the Scéim Chónaithe, which this year I believe will not only be select apartments, but an entire House, made up of people who got the Scéim, who'll get their subsidy etc, and also people who applied and didn't get the subsidy. They're trying to set up a mini-Gaeltacht by the sounds of it.

    You clearly don't love English, however.
    How much is the rent, anyway?

    I didn't hear anything, does everyone get an e-mail or just the people that are accepted?

    Anyway, my number's not on the list I found somewhere else on the forum but I'm a one year student.. And I've read here before that one year students always get accommodation (on campus) but Trinity sent me and information package a few months ago and it said there were only very few rooms available for international/one year students?

    I'm worried about not finding anything :(

    In my experience they usually do put people doing similar courses together. I started doing science, shared a room with people doing science, and the rest were meds. I know another appartment that was all nurses (two in fact), and another made up entirely of Eurostuds and TSMs, all of which were studying a language, and another of people doing either BESS or MSISS. My take on it is so that you are all leaving and coming home at the same time, so if you all have 9.00 starts you won't have the waster arts students compaining about being woken up in the morning, or the studious med complaining about being kept up late by said waster arts student.

    ^Hmm. I was in correspondence with someone in the residence office about my application (long story) and she told me that the point of the personal statement is to put people with similar interests (music or sport or whatever) together. Maybe that applies to courses too.

    Does anyone know if vegetarians are put together? I mentioned in my application I'm vegetarian so I was hoping I'd be put into accommodation with vegetarians.
