    Hi, just wondering where the best places to live in carlow for college is as I changed my mind on the cao? Also is there a lot of demand? When do students start looking to accommodation? And can you attend open days during the summer? Thanks all help appreciated.

    Southern gardens, carraig abhainn, college green, River side. All are typical student accomadation. Personally i rented out in mount claire court in graiguecullen as it was cheaper but was a good step into the college.

    Get looking asap if you are certain thats is where you are heading!

    As Gorgeousgeorge said, look towards those housing options as they have always been student options along with Green Road. Start looking asap, as once exams are over and everyone moves back home, the landlords/ladies will be getting enquiries about rooms.

    Thank you but I'm hoping for a transfer from another college to carlow so I won't know until July 4th if I'll get in or not! Should I ring a few of the places mentioned above?
