    Im currently in 6th year and I was late booking student accommodation for both UCC and UL. Im going to do a law degree and my college is dependent on points. In any case I was wondering what the will happen now, I understand that there is waiting lists at the University of Limerick but I haven't any idea about Cork.
    Commuting is out of the question to Cork as I live in Ennis, Clare. Any advice would be highly appreciated on either college.

    Sound Lads.

    I'm sure both colleges have Accommodation Offices which keep a register of privately-owned student accommodation, and update it regularly ... every college I know does certainly, and it was the normal way students organised accommodation before the development of on-campus accom. in the Irish colleges (outside of Trinity).

    It's a bit more bothersome, because you have to traipse around and look at places and decide will they suit and so on, rather than just looking at a website and applying online, but it's probably your best option. Many of these probably haven't started taking bookings yet, but some of the bigger purpose-built private student housing developments probably will have, so best not to delay further.
