Still trying to figure out the whole credit thing! If I can't do that but what hope do I have?! Lol

simon0brien

You said you were going to do 3 subjects and as far as I know you only need 15 credits in each subject to advance that subject to second year/ degree.. So with 3x15 credits you'll have spent 45 of 60 so I'm guessing you'll have 15 left to take Italian or to spend on your first three subjects.. I think that's how It works

was told today that the decisions for TCD psychology mature applicants have just come in so we should be informed early next week! also UL said that they were hoping to make offers for same, around 2 weeks from closing date of applications which suggests that we could be hearing from them next week also....fingers crossed! NUIG have yet to decide on msap cut offs.

having been told that decisions were made and that we would be informed early last week, I called again, late last week, ie. thurs, only to be told that we would definitely hear by the end of the day or fri morning at the very latest. it is now tuesday, hmmmm.......

wonder what's going on there?

You only need 10 credits to carry the subject to the following year, but you must complete the core/mandatory subjects. If you preselected your choices via the cao, 10 credits will be selected for you by UCD in your subjects (this is to secure you a place in your subject and can often be the core subjects so be careful if you drop them).
Also, incoming arts students have to complete a Humanities module, which uses 5 of your credits.
There is also a limit on how many subjects you can take in the year - which is 4. Humanities isn't considered to be one of these subjects. If you do a search in the UCD forum you'll find loads of info about the timetable process or you can PM me if you like.

Hey,
I received an offer from LIT by post today, so I will also be joining the mature student ranks.

LaLacuna

well done you!

shawki

Got Commerce in UCC!!! Still waiting to hear from Finance

Ralna

Did you call them or did they contact you?

shawki

I rang admissions, They knew for Commerce but are still waiting on Finance and Accounting decisions to come in

Ralna

Congtars! I am waiting for Law (fingers crossed)

Korasa

Well, seems I should call admissions tomorrow in UCC and find out for sure. The office told me with the score I got in the MSAP I shouldn't worry but would still be nice to know for sure I guess. Good luck to everyone hoping for UCC.

Edit: F*** yeah! Got my place informally confirmed today. Hope others got as good news.
