    Yeah better start lining the stomach for freshers week:)

    DT341 Marketing Looks good especially in the 3rd year with a chance to study around Europe or North America.
    Had DIT for my Second choice.

    Also do you receive a offer from CAO online and by post(Letter).?

    I got my offer directly from DIT - just an email. They must have sent a lot of offers out last week as I got my 2nd choice offer earlier in the week.

    Yeah, I love the look of the course; 3rd year looks amazing but getting through the first semester is biggest hurdle! What if nobody wants to have lunch with me!! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,133 ✭✭✭Barrie


    I am getting so nervous waiting to see if i get an offer :-/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20 lostbooks


    I have been under the impression that offers would be posted on Wednesday the 4th, received on the 5th and also go live on the website on the 5th. I can’t seem to find where I got those dates from though so don’t hold me to them.

    I have had a calendar by my desk which I have been crossing off the dates on for about three weeks and I have been driving friends and family insane with my steady count down of days. My girlfriend is sick to the back teeth with it and I don’t think she will talk to me after I mentioned that it was ‘60 hours and thirteen minutes, approximately’ last night when we were chatting.

    Yeah I think lostbooks is right, the offers will go on the website on Thursday at 6:00. I found this yesterday on the cao site.
    Round A:
    Offer Date: 5th July, 2012 from 06:00
    Reply Date: 12th July, 2012 by 17:15

    In early July a small number of offers of places may be issued to applicants such as:
    deferred applicants
    mature applicants
    mature nursing/midwifery code applicants
    those who need to make visa arrangements before taking a place


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 113 ✭✭Bluegrass

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,232 ✭✭✭ITS_A_BADGER


    Good Luck to everybody tomorrow and thursday, please god we all get the course/s/ we want!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 153 ✭✭muffinn


    On the letter I received from DCU it said that the offer will be made on the 4th of July.

    It better be cause I refused to attend any more interviews as the course in DCU was my first choice on the CAO list :eek:

    I am so nervous :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭jimmymal


    Nothing in the mail today. I've been trying to get through to the CAO offices to confirm either today or tomorrow as offer day but they're lines are busy as hell. Hope to Fcuk that its tomorrow!:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 153 ✭✭muffinn


    I know, right ? Been trying to ring them for like half an hour and the line was busy all the time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭jimmymal

    Nothing in the post either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 134 ✭✭eug87


    Did you ring up DCU muffinn?
    I think its not till 2mor morning that the offers will be published,that's what DCU said.Still a bit confused when there letter says the 4th of July??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭jimmymal


    yeah its got to be tmw like lostbooks says. otherwise im sure we'd be hearing about someone getting their offer and/or we would be able to access some sort of let down/consoling page in our "my application" pages.

    still if anybody gets through to them please post relevant info here asap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 153 ✭✭muffinn


    Yeah it says the 4th of July on my letter as well.

    Oh well, I guess if the offers are not up by now it must be tomorrow then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭jimmymal


    i might take a gander down to the offices now in a short while to see for sure seeing as i've to head to that side of the city anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,232 ✭✭✭ITS_A_BADGER


    offers being made on the 4th means that they are posted out and you'll get em the next day afaik, plus they dont put up the offers on the website till 6am tonight (thursday morning) i suppose that is so everyone recieves them at around the same time so i think they earliest you can see if you got your offer is to wait till 6am and check the website :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    I walked down the stairs this morning all bleary eyed. The post was on the ground and was convinced i seen the CAO logo. It turned out to be an ESB bill. Such a come down :pac:

    Yeah it looks like they will be sent in the post today and recieved tomorrow or the day after.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,232 ✭✭✭ITS_A_BADGER


    I got a letter from the CAO, where you had to open it in a funny way and it was pink.:eek: what letter is this about?

    if it was one where you had to tear off the sides and had your course choices in correct order in it and you git the letter before july, it was proabably just confirmation that you choices were the correct before the july 1st deadline.
    when did you get the letter?
