    Hey, I applied for St pats campus , i'm 7th on waiting list but it said people had to accept by 5 pm the 21st (yesterday) , since then I haven't heard any word of getting campus, am just wondering does anyone know if thats it and i'm not getting campus or when would they let me know ?

    In the meantime i'm going to look to for other places, anyone know any good locations for 1st years not to far from pats , thanks

    Eoin I heard of people getting offered places when they were 20 something on waiting list, I don't know if thats rumours or not , I reckon offers will come close to the reg. day as some people won't pay as they found other places, if not i've heard if people drop out or get kicked out you could get offered some time throughout the year , ive started looking for places but hopefully we'll get offered soon as it would be soo much better on campus.

    Hopefully we will be told soon! I was thinking it might be when the second round offers come out? Maybe not though, we'll see soon enough anyway I suppose
