My housemate is here on Erasmus and asked for help with registering her modules and getting her timetable. She has her modules picked out but I have no idea on how to actually help someone on Erasmus register and get their timetable!

Do any of Ye know? I just told her to go to the international office tomorrow because I'm honestly clueless

Chris Martin · 31-08-2016 09:19PM

Aye could dig my Coop Report out too..
If you want some reading...

Also when in doubt, pass the buck.. :P
Erasmus office will sort her out in a heartbeat..
Better than a 200e fine..

My advice for the co-op report is not to stress about it. Put in enough effort to pass, but don't go crazy on it, there's nothing to gain. It's Pass/Fail, so as long as you just put in everything they ask for, make it presentable and easy to read, and have a decent enough write up of what you did, you'll be grand.

If you're stuck, I might be able to dig mine out off of a harddrive I have lying around here somewhere, but honestly just get the headings and write a couple of paragraphs under each. It's mind-numbing stuff, but you'd easily knock it out in a night or two.

I don't think the registration is available to complete until Monday morning, and I think they have until week 3 to do it, or something :pac:

Yeah but she has no timetable,Mahon she enters her student ID it says no records returned. She'll work it out! Yeah they have until week 3 to confirm their modules. It's just the timetable issue that confused me most

I don't understand...of course she has no timetable because she has no registered modules yet, same as the first years? She just has to look up the module timetables individually and figure out what she'd like to go to and if they clash.

Chris Martin · 01-09-2016 05:38PM

After deferring last year Im unable to view timetable so I just enter course code and year and get it that way. Should be alright when I register modules.

I just re read my message and realised my keyboard messed up and it was pasting thing I was using to type at the time in other places and... it was a mess... So sorry about that again:( That happens a lot, my phone's screen is broken at parts so the touch doesn't work fully.

I did show her the individual timetables of the modules she liked the look of and they all seemed to be fine. She also went to the Erasmus office and they helped her with that more.

Sorry for being stupid lol

Where do i find the cost of a Link In Module

I think it's like 512 per module. It's probably in the student academic handbook somewhere.

wnolan1992 · 02-09-2016 01:26PM

Mine were €568/module last year. But I was in CSIS and I think link-in's are marginally more expensive for the Science and Eng faculty because of labs, so other faculties may be different. Could be wrong on that though, I just vaguely remember reading it somewhere back in 2012 when I first did link-ins.

Guys does anyone know how to go about changing your password for the new year? Trying to log into the coop website at the moment and it's saying my details aren't authorised...

Midkemia · 02-09-2016 07:44PM

Anyone else living in curragh birin? Feels a bit weird here.

First day down and very glad I scribbled out a map and wrote directions to rooms. Doing it for every day of the week, boards seems to have quite a lot of posts relating to directions so by standing on the shoulders of others I will hopefully not get lost.

Until, of course, you need to go to any room in the Main Building apart from the obvious ones... :P

Chris Martin · 06-09-2016 10:03AM

Oh that bastard next to Red Raisin...
Took hours finding it.. :P

Chris Martin · 06-09-2016 10:04AM

And the room behind the Alpha labs..

TMJM96 · 06-09-2016 11:37AM

Is there any reason why I cant get a module site to appear on my SULIS? I registered yesterday but only one module shows up instead of the two that comes up for everyone else. I told the lecturer and they told me to go to SAA, they then told me to go back to the lecturer (no response) and the ITD (automatic response back, will probably take a while). I'm at a loss now. I need the notes and material and my friend tried to get it for me but you can't download the notes.

What can I do?

Generally, you're added automatically all at once. But if others in your class have been added and you haven't then maybe you've just slipped through.

From my experience, it's usually the lecturer that can add individual students to Sulis manually. I'm fairly sure they have to add international/Erasmus students manually.

My advice would be either talk to the lecturer in person at the end of the next lecture or call to their office (during office hours) and ask if they'll add you manually.

On a side note, why can't the notes be downloaded from Sulis?

Usually takes 24 hours for them to show up, don't panic

Looks like I've just slipped through.

They can't send on notes because they're videos embedded into a webpageonly accessible via sulis (and getting the link doesnt work)

Ah okay.

Yep well I'd go see the lecturer face to face then and ask them to add you, they really shouldn't have a problem with it, unless something has really upset them after 1 day back at college :rolleyes:

I registered yesterday morning, still no access on Sulis.

It takes a minimum of 24 hours for modules to appear, sometimes longer. Also, there are some lecturers that don't use SULIS and so the module doesn't appear.

As a forewarning, DOWNLOAD AND SAVE YOUR NOTES FROM SULIS CAUSE IT CRASHES AT THE MOST INCONVENIENT TIMES!

A lecturer took down our notes during Study Week. He did the same to my friends the semester after and again for summer repeats.
