    The tuition charge will be covered by the 'free fees' if you have never attended a 3 level university/IT before.

    They always have it added that way at the start. If you are eligible for the free fees it will show up in a few days. Usually takes a little while for the info to come in and get processed.

    My registration form also stated I had to pay the tuition fees, I nearly died of a heart attack, sent about 60 emails to any mail adress I found in the administrative & fees office on UCD website :p

    One hour later I received an email; they had updated my form and the amount 2.433 :D

    Send the fees&grants office an email, they'll update your sisweb registration form :)

    Hmm, I think UCD will give out accomodation offers around 27th-31st, a few days before orientation week :)

    Perhaps the offers for accommodation come out after the Round 2 offers? If in doubt you could possibly contact UCD and ask them when they are giving out accommodation? :)

    Apparently some people will be getting them today - and then I have to wait until the offers reach high numbers on the waiting list :/

    Really? :/ hmm I suppose it goes in order of the list then, chances are you'll have accommodation hopefully before orientation week :)

    Well I hope so, because my parents are starting to look at whatever will be available with a roof and a bed, and my mom just asked me if, as temporary accomodation, a convent/nunnery would be acceptable, as she (how, I have no idea) knows someone there... *headshot*
    :rolleyes:

    Might be...I just received my letter from UCD, apparently there's a two-hours introduction to Arts and registration next Monday, but I really can't just buy a plane ticket and come to the introduction just for two hours and then go back to France :p
    Are you planning to go ? Do you think it will really affect my
    registration/orientation/etc process if I can't go ?

    It won't effect your reg process. It's probably because you are an international student and they want you to get used to the area etc. They'll give out tips and such things.
