Student Travelcard: Grad Students Eligible?

Hey folks, two questions:

1. Filling in my postal application at the moment and there are only boxes to tick for "College Study Year (if undergraduate)". Am I still eligble to apply as a full-time Third Level student? Can't find anything on their site that suggests otherwise...

2. Would there be any issues with me popping in to Trinity to get my travelcard, as long as I bring in my student card? Can't make it into UCD one way or another with my work placement this semester.

I'm a full-time graduate student and I have a Student Travelcard so you should be grand.

I don't know the answer to your second question however.

Great, thanks!

Yes you can get it in Trinity too!

Brilliant! You don't know if they have lunch hours or anything do you? My window of opportunity tomorrow will be 1-2pm. It'd save me buying a 7-day adult ticket for the Luas if I can get this done tomorrow.

They're open 9:30 to 5:00. And all you need to prove you're a student is your UCD student card.

I was referring to Trinity actually since the OP asked about that. They're open til 5, turn left inside the arch, door on the left and left inside there. You won't need passport pictures, they take them for you.

You don't even have to be a student. Just go into an express location on campus dressed like a student (bag, hoody, jeans etc) and they won't ask you for a student I.D. Worked for me this year when I graduated last year!
