    So what time are they out on the 19th?

    Can I log in at a minute past midnight to see the horror unfold before my eyes?

    It can vary. They can be up at midnight, or not up until sometime during the night. Also be prepared for server time-outs.

    After the summer exams if you have failed any modules in semester 1/2 you will receive a letter informing you of the repeat process, it is the dreaded one. It's not to bad if you know your expecting it from the autumn exams but can be a shock if you fail one of the summer one.

    Or else you can get the Letter from the Dean advising you that you have wonderful grades QCA over 3.5


  • Registered Users Posts: 117 ✭✭RovinPirate


    Don't really think I'll be getting the second one D:
    Please tell me they address it to me and not my parents. I'll feel about 9 years old!

    The suspense of the results is a killer.


  • Registered Users Posts: 918 ✭✭✭Agent_99


    They send it to your permanent address not your term time address so I guess that's your Parents but it will be addressed to you directly.

    The University will never send anything to your parents, ever. Something to do with confidentiality

    The letters from the dean for the QCA over 3.5 arrive a couple weeks after results are released each semester.


  • Registered Users Posts: 79 ✭✭chicgroovy101


    So ... if we get a letter tomorrow we have repeats? (sorry I'm also a first year)

    You won't get a letter this time around - you'll get one in the summer.

    Log in here and you can check your transcript and results.

    1. Log in here --> http://www.si.ul.ie/

    2. Select the "Student Records" tab on the far left, directly beneath the "Home" tab and directly above the "Log Out" tab.

    3. Once the page has loaded, you'll see 3 boxes:

    - My Course Information
    - My Student Reports
    - Cooperative Education & Careers Division

    **Under the My Student Reports header, you'll see a link to your transcript.** (right now, as you can see if you log in, student transcripts/results are disabled until the 19th)

    Thought i saw something on the student union's page on facebook about letters being sent out to people who failed. Any truth in that?

    I just saw that there, and that's from the education officer:confused::confused: Usually they're just sent out after the summer exams.

    I'm doing the same. And when I see them, I'll die. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 516 ✭✭✭Skyrim

    Same. Be a relief to know what the story is though.

    Would we have gotten the letter today?


  • Registered Users Posts: 117 ✭✭RovinPirate


    I didn't get any letter anyway.
    Hopefully the results will come up straight after midnight.

    Aoife posted on ULSU Facebook page yesterday saying they hadn't been posted, that was 21 hours ago, so you probably wouldn't have gotten them today no matter what.

    Thanks. Thought that there was only a letter sent for summer exams? It must have changed!

    I doubt it to be honest. As Wnolan said that message was only posted yesterday. Don't worry about it, not a lot we can do at this stage. I just hope we can get the results after 12 tonight.
