    Hi

    I work full time in the IT Sector, have done for a number of years. I am 23 and have applied to study part time, for an Honours BSc degree in IT.

    I applied to a number of colleges in and around Dublin City, as that is where i work.

    Turns out, i have been accepted on to all of them. Now i am unsure which one to choose! :confused:

    Colleges/Courses i have been accepted on to:

    >> National College of Ireland, BSc (Hons) Computing (4 years, Tue, Thur & Sat)
    >> Griffith College Dublin, BSc (Hons) Computing Science (3.5 years Tue & Thur)
    >> DIT, BSc (Hons) Information Systems/Information Tech (4 Years Tue & Thur)


    they all vary slightly, but all offer the basics in IT. Programming, web dev, OS, networking (with the exception of DIT)

    Location is not really an issue, i can make it to any one of them without issues.

    It's more so, which one would be better? Would a degree from Griffith college look better than the rest, or the other way around? etc etc..

    if the likes of UCD/DCU offered a part time IT Degree, id take that simply for the name and reputation..

    has anyone got first hand experience of any of these colleges?

    any opinions welcome!

    thanks
