Are Colleges of Further Education around the country closed due to snow?

sissorhands

Since the primary and secondary schools are closed, the colleges of further education's around ireland should be closed untill Thursday 14th january.

I don't see the difference why we should be open and they are not. I cannot make it up there.

My question is, are they closed?

it says on the college website that exams are postponed for next week but the college is open as usual but if the heavy snow comes that is promised for sunday then id imagine they will close as most lecturers probably wouldnt make it in, im in two minds as to travel also all i can do is take it day by day

I was in mon/tue/wed thur could not make it in due to roads and am back in monday. So yes its open anyway but I guess that could change looking at weather for sunday.

"All EXAMINATIONS due to commence in week beginning Monday 11th January 2010 are now DEFERRED until week beginning Monday 18th January 2010."

Iv got a exam next week, only 1. Does that mean it wont be next week or are they talking about timetabled exams?

It does say "all examinations". However, you should get in touch with your course director for a definitive answer
