Has anyone been able to start registration and pay fees yet?

I'm getting this, even though registration was supposed to open today:

Yep, when did you accept your offer? I accepted mine around 8am Monday morning and I was able to go through registration online yesterday evening. Registration opens within 3 working days of you accepting an offer - therefore registration opens today for those who accepted offers on Monday

My partner is registering & it's saying he needs to pay full EU fees for some reason. Anyone else had this problem?

Do we get a registration pack or was the brochure the registration pack? :pac:

EDIT: It could be called a Welcome pack either...

That was the welcome pack as far as I know, but haven't heard/read anything about a registration pack.

Any Arts students in Glenomena?

The 17 will take you directly into campus

First time posting and hey! but I had to add that I'm also doing biomed, for this year anyway, medicine next year hopefully!

This is my plan too! You're one of the few people that I've come across who is doing biomed!

This must be the biggest bunch of UCD boardsies I've ever seen. Already talking about meetups. I don't think there was even 1 meetup in my 4 years in UCD, and ye are already talking about one before the semester even starts!

Good luck to y'all. I'd say you'll love UCD!

Scooples

If anyone got an email today, could you let me know what accommodation was left? Thanks

speechless

Scooples, No e-mail here yet either.
I rang college accommodation today, they said places left in Muckross and Blackrock only and maybe very small no. in Roebuck Castle. Where are you on the waiting list today?

I was lucky as I got an email yesterday! One of my best friends however was in the 2000s and she just went down to 317 now! What number are you now? She really wants Blackrock as it's been a bit of a nightmare looking for places elsewhere

The 17 goes straight through UCD? Or at least it did last time I used it...has that changed or something?

I'm just kidding, I've seen many no. 17 bus-stops but I've never seen the no. 17 bus! It's a notoriously unreliable route, or it used to be before real-time bus information.

Just got a place, was in the 70s just before 4, then dropped to 22, then back to 38, but got email so I wouldn't set too much store by the waitlist it just seems to be a general indicator, such a relief, ya only blackrock, muckross catered and roebuck castle left. Accommodation office said that there is always possibility of cancellations down the road, people who drop out or don't take their booking, so that might be an option too if you're prepared to wait.

The 17 is a strangely unreliable bus, it pretty much defies real time information and timetables, but it exists and it comes. When it wants to anyway.

It's dire but people still rely on it.

Is there no alternative to that? Just walk/cycle otherwise?

Two lads from Galway (21 and 18) looking for house mates to share a place with close to or on bus route to UCD.

Don't mind sharing with girls or boys.

Not really. You could get a 7 or a 4 to Booterstown and walk up which would make your walk considerably shorter, but it's not ideal, especially if the weather's ****e!

They're all booked out already. I think Roebuck and Blackrock is all that's left now, not that I'm fully sure.
