Your the 3rd person in about as many days to ask the exact same question. And if you look about 8 threads down you will find
Student Residences
and
I got accepted

As ive posted there:
Places to look out for are:
Prospect hill
Bohermore
Newcastle
Shantalla
Dominic street (if you havn't got a car)
Foster Street

Foster Court
Corrib Park
Moyola park
Ardilan road (although I believe the places in there arnt the best, from my experience)
Cill ard
Dun, Gort and cuirt na coiribe (Student accomodation)

FYI, when reading up about these places on the NUIG accomodation website, have google map at the ready, its generally spot on, and gives u an idea of its surroundings.

Any questions, just ask.

I hope you don't call accommodation "accommo" in real life? If you do, stop, it's not cool :cool:

Maybe a sticky with collected/selected posts would do the trick?

Could do. Itl be a question asked many times in the year! From March to September id say there'll be constant requests for "where to live".

That's how I got started on boards! But a sticky would be good. I would like to warn people against the place I lived.
