I have the proper first year timetables, (lectures only) but that's not really what my question was about. I'm wondering if there's a way to catch up on a class online if I miss it. Would there be notes up on a website somewhere?

I'm not confused about the timetables at all, I'm just following two of them at the same time. Tbh, it's a miracle that I only have two overlaps in a week!

What course are your doing just so I could check it out? Each lab and tut has its own group code. You will be in one group for each module.

Also, check on the weeks you have the module on. I am the same for one of my modules. But it's on on Week 1-6 and the other is on 7-12 so that could be it.

Depends on the module. Some lecturers will make all their slides available through SULIS or their own website. Others don't put anything up and subscribe to the "If you weren't there then you're not getting notes." philosophy.

Depends on the lecturer whether they will put up notes or not
Some will post the lectures online on sulis https://sulis.ul.ie/xsl-portal or on their personal webpage
Some might get you to buy a book of notes that contains all the lectures (there might be gaps in the notes to get you to come to lectures to fill them in)
And others might get you to make your own notes and not put anything online!

The timetables I have are for what I'll be starting straight away. Deffo no tutorials and labs on it. This is a temporary issue anyway, I'll be deciding on a single course to take in the next week or so. I just wanted to make sure I have ALL OF THE INFORMATION before picking a subject.

I don't know of this is the right place for this or not, but does anyone know if non-UL students would be allowed into Scouting for Girls on Wednesday? If so, would ID be essential just to get into the concert part? Thank you

You need a student ID number. I'm sure they would ask for you to show them your student card as well.

You need a UL Student to "sign you in" at the door (unless things've changed in the past year or two). So if you're going with a friend who is a UL student, you should be fine. Even if you're not, the guys on the door will probably just ask a student going in to sign you in. Should be grand.

Anyone else having trouble signing into ul student mail today? Keeps asking for authentication? This happening for anyone else?

Ah crap, was working grand for me at home all weekend until I came up here and started using the ul network, would that have anything to do with it? Any ideas?

Welcome to the glorious world of UL IT.

I can only log on to Studentmail while on campus using Internet Explorer. Chrome will keep doing what you're seeing.

Remember, your username is ul\14XXXXXX.

Are you on campus? There was a time last year where I couldn't log in, so I got a VPN extension for Chrome that hides your IP address. Could log in fine when that was running for some reason.

I got so sick of studentmail that I finally just said "F*ck it.". Everything is redirected to my Gmail account now and I only ever log into Outlook if I need to send mail so they'll know I'm a student.

Yep I'm up in cappa, how do I go about redirecting my mail to my gmail account? That sounds far handier for me at the moment anyway!

jamo2oo9 · 08-09-2014 5:39pm

Anybody know why I can't view my timetable on tt.daniel.ie? Tried it last week and it didn't work so I thought it's because I wasn't officially a student until week 1 but I tried it today and still doesn't work?

I can't remember how I did it tbh (I did it one morning in work over the summer when I was bored :P). There's loads of tutorials online though, just Google "redirect email from Outlook to Gmail" or something and you'll find loads of stuff. Unfortunately you have to log into the account to do it, so this doesn't really help you right now. :P

If you are a first year you won't be issued an individual timetable until Friday of week 2 so tt.daniel.ie won't work for you until then.

Do Labs start on week 3 too?

Different for each module I think. We got a sheet listing when each starts.

Where exactly in the student portal do you register for your modules? I think I may be going totally blind because I can't see anything.

when you log into si.ul.ie it should come up on the home page saying register for modules and underneath is says watch a youtube tutorial on how to register

Nope, none of that appears for me at all.

Just takes me to the homepage in the portal.

It should be in the portal, in a big red box, the very first one.

Apart from the mess that is the student mail, how are things going for everyone?

jamo2oo9 · 10-09-2014 9:32pm

I recall being told something about stickers that you put on your student ID cards. What is it for and where do I get one?

It's basically Stables membership. You need it to get into most events and places. You can get it in the SU

Do you actually need it? I thought it was just to show you were over 18.

Ah, cheers then! Do I need to pay for it or do I just sign up for membership then?
