2 Quick Questions!

Konata

Ok, starting in UCD in September, living in Roebuck *hopefully*

Just wondering...is it possible to have other people stay over in your room? For example, if my boyfriend was to come up and visit, would he be allowed to stay with me? :rolleyes:

Also, on the UCD website, under the various modules, where it lists the times that lectures and tutorials etc. for that particular module are on, what does "Offering 1" or "Offering 2" mean? Are these just different times that the same lecture is on?

Thanks for any help!

Yes. But, depending on your course you may only be able to select one of them (due to timetable conflicts & also some courses are restricted to one time slot to keep programmes together, as far as I know).

Konata

Right, and if "Offering 1" is listed twice, what does that mean?

Example:
Lectures Semester 1 Offering 1 Mon: 14:00-14:50 (Sem1: All Weeks)
Lectures Semester 1 Offering 1 Wed: 16:00-16:50 (Sem1: All Weeks)

Does that mean I've got to attend that lecture twice in the week?

Économiste Monétaire

That means there are two lectures a week in the module, i.e. you should attend both because they will cover different material carrying on from the one previous.

Konata

Ah yes, I think I get it now. Thanks

You're welcome. Any other questions just throw 'em up

Ok, thought of another one! Sorry! :P

When I'm registering in a week or so, do I register only my semester one modules or the semester two ones aswell? And elective wise, I know it's 10 credits so does that mean I choose a 5 credit one for semester 1 and a 5 credit one for semester 2 or can I choose both for semester one/both for semester two?

Économiste Monétaire

You register for both semesters at the same time. There is a change of mind window in November when you can change modules if you want for semester two.

As for the electives, you can have both in the same semester as long as you don't have more than 40 credits in a single semester.

What they don't know won't hurt them. People often sleep on the couches in the living room too. It's all down to your room mates and how you get along though.

wit regards to electives is there a list of subject you can choose from anywhere?

Technically no, they not supposed to. But as before, what they dont know wont hurt them. You can keep it away from roomates aswell, but it is much handier if you get along, cos then they dont care if some radom lad/girl appears out in the hallway.

Regards the offerings, mostly for lectures you'l only get 1 offfering(may vary depending on course/subject), but various choices for tutorials. With that you just choose one and attend at he given times. UCD_Econ explains everything brilliantly here!

Just about the accommodation. I understand that you get a key for your bedroom but do you get a key for the apartment too?

Seifer

For the residences with a keycard, it works for the other doors too.
For others I presume you get a separate key for the outer doors too. How else would you get in?
