I'm from Clare.

I dunno about Hazelwood but I think it's a bit far.. i think the man said it was 15-20 mins walk?

It is about that, but really not to far, was up in Dublin Tuesday looking at the place and to be honest it seems that it is a walk you would not really notice, but the walk can be shorten as I was told there are short cuts you can.

I had a look at gateway and at the time it was fully book so not wanting to cone back up to Dublin I book a place inhazelwood which is also good and has it's own advantages and disadvantages, gateway is nice ye share a bathroom but you have a big enough kitchen and living room area with wireless internet around the place.

Finally! Another Boards member starting A&F in DCU this month! You're the first person on this website other than myself that I've seen say they're doing this course!

I'm thinking of moving all my stuff up sometime this week and maybe heading out this week end

. Would there be many 1st years about yet does anyone know or would it be safer leaving it till orientation week to go out?

And i got my orientation schedule yoke in the post today but has anybody got their actual course timetable yet?
