Thank you... just out of interest what are the requirements for local authority grant?

No, you'll have to find a journal floating around tthe university, they're supposed to give them out with student cards to continuing students, but I always ended up fishing one out of a pile where they'd been left carelessly unattended.

Tax relief may be claimed on certain tuition fees. See www.Revenue.ie for criteria.

Please enter the following details for the person paying tuition so that these may be forwarded by UCD to Revenue.

There's a clue there.

it's good stuff alright!


but one thing i found amusing is on one page it recommends orange juice instead of coffee, coffee &sugar wont keep you going etc, and on the next page there's a great big cup of coffee ... but i like it cause i smiled at it.

fuck that, the only good thing about UCD is the coffee and even that tastes like shite!

seriously though, welcome to UCD.

The coffee from the machine in the science hub shop is the nicest I've ever had in Ireland. People have a thing against machines, but machines have thermostats and don't burn your coffee.

yeah 911 have a thing for nuking the milk. They probably went to UCD and took a modularised coffee making course. Ive taken nicely to the 60c coffee in the arts block machines. Again its much nicer than anything else served on campus.

Red Alert

The SU shop have a nice machine that actually grinds the coffee and makes it on the spot - think it's about a euro. Much better and cleaner than some of those vending machines. If you saw the inside of them you'd never use one again :eek:

I just gave up on drinking coffee on campus, I have to say the stuff in 911 tastes like death!! Though if you're going to I think O' Briens in the health science building is the best, once you're willing to queue for a while

I got my Graduate Registration pack today, welcoming me to UCD and giving me lots of leaflets, I never left though so it all feels a bit redundant.
And it had no info on when I'm actually starting or anything about my course. Secretary of the department told me everything I'd need would be in the pack, except of course, any info on what I'm doing.
Gotta love UCD.

IrishKnight

what course are you doing?

snickerpuss

MA in Art History.

I assume I'm back on the 11th. As far as I know we're in Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I only know this because I rang. No idea what I'm actually showing up to on the Tue.
When I called she told me I'd have all the info in my Grad pack.

Still waiting on my pack.....

Same (although the lovely secretary in my dept emailed us all a week ago to tell us when we were starting).

I'm already annoyed by the bit on the letter that says "To login [to ucdconnect] your username is your student number and your password is your date of birth". For students who are coming straight from a degree in ucd that isn't the case. Would it have killed them to have a separate template? They could also have saved some money (and trees) by forgoing a lot of the glossy pamphlets.

*heavy sigh*

Mine came on wednesday. maybe you should ring up?

It's probably lost in the post, as soon as the CAO notify UCD of who they've offered places too they get them in the post.

I was a round three offer to UCD and got my UCD registration pack the same day I got my CAO offer.

Ring UCD, although in saying that I rang them before about my registration and was told all the wrong things, and that was by the deputy head of admissions.....
