    I don't know should i move out of home and live in the city or stay at home?
    I only live 55 minutes from college and i really don't know what to do i would be down at college at 9 every morning and home at half 6.
    But i wont be able to join clubs or socs as i wont be there and i also won't able to go out i am afraid i wont really enjoy college then what should i do and also not meet as much people then?

    Did anyone live at home a good few minutes from the college-how did you find it?

    in my opinion, it wont feel like college unless your living away from home and have your own sense of independence, why not try living away for the first semester and if it doesn't work out you can come back home? If your only 55mins away you can come home at the weekends for mammy dinners and laundry, and still have the bit of craic ;)

    Thanks ya good thinking...the student accomodation is just so dear so it would have to be a house the only problem with that is there all nearly full with 4 or 5 people in them and they are all good friends aswel i would find it so hard to get to know them as they would be such good friends

    Do a houseshare, student accommodation is way more expensive. If I were you I'd move out, it will be kind of crap if you can't join any societies or go out and have fun.

    Perhaps try to find yourself a small boxroom in a house near the college that wouldn't be too expensive?

    If you're only 55 minutes away you're not even in the position that you have to stay in 5 nights a week, you could easily go home a night mid-week if you wanted to, stay in when it was worth it / if you had something on ...
