    I've accepted my course online right away and was shown a printable receipt. I was expecting a confirmation through e-mail or something.

    What happens next? Should I have recieved something through the post?

    All I remember is that we get a letter within 3 days of the reply date (not sure what the reply date actually is though) I didn't get anything yet and as far as I know they don't send out emails.

    The reply date is the 29th is it not?

    You'd expect that when you give them your address:p No confirmation yet, still have to accept mine.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 194 ✭✭Dave Larkin


    Still no confirmation for me yet. I accepted on Monday. Are we all expecting an e-mail with a letter or welcome pack from the college? I'll check my e-mail now, I suppose. :D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 63 ✭✭c m


    nothing from dcu yet.. got the email though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 879 ✭✭✭UU


    Not yet unfortunately! :( I think most of the confirmations will be sent out after the Reply Date. It says on the overleaf of the offer notice CAO sent:
    Please contact CAO immediately, if you do not receive this confirmation within 3 working days of the Reply Date. (This is NOT within 3 days of the date on which you post this acceptance).
    Em...when exactly is the Reply Date?

    I did go onto the CAO website and it has an acceptance of my offer listed in my application.

    I hope Trinity will send me a pack soon. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 212 ✭✭sully-gormo


    yeah I accepted on monday and i got was a sh1tty email from a computer at CAO. Hopefully ill get my info pack soon(for trinity)

    Got the CAO email, was a few days late.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭whassupp2


    Got CAO letter today.

    Also got college pack. I wouldn t call it a welcome pack. It was more like "be in aula maxima on Monday 4th September for registration. Bring €800"*.


    *(not actual quote from the letter but similar


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 411 ✭✭Faerie
