    Hey,
    Has anyone returned to Maynooth after deferring for a year? If so how did you find settling back in / coursework after a year out etc?

    I deferred my second year last year and will be returning in Sept - I'm a mature student and just worried about trying to settle back again with a whole new gang of people who have already been with each other for a year!

    I repeated in UCD so it's a somewhat similar situation ...

    The only advice I can offer you is go in, interact with them, hope you find people that you like, and keep working. Again a lot has to do with what societies you were in, and I'm sure some of your mates from your previous year will still be in Maynooth, but keep a positive attitude, get involved, and you'll be okay.

    Attend the induction sessions, that's what they're designed for.

    Best of Luck.
