    I think the one concern I had was the location, ya know, Limerick probably isn't considered the most glamorous place in the world? (No offence to anyone from Limerick) But I'm willing to give it a chance

    Yeah, price was a concern but I think I'd be better off on campus for the first year anyway. In any case I think I'm right in saying that the on campus accommodation is relatively cheap compared to other colleges?

    I'll definitely be getting involved in the ol' footy myself!

    I'll definitely be seeing you in that case! Hoping to do Journalism inside and get on the first freshman team there!

    Northumbria in Newcastle! :D or it might be dcu if I don't make it there.
    I reckon I will :).
    If I get my 4 B1s and C3 in maths which will get me at least 375 points and whatever french grade.

    I have sorted out my accommodation (Centrepoint, woop!) but I've heard of people applying in August and still finding places. You won't get a place in Corrib at this stage, and the other ones people mainly go for will e quite full, but places further away like Centrepoint still have load of places. :P

    Good luck anyway!

    There usually isn't a problem with getting Corrib later on in August when people don't get Galway or go somewhere else, they may be running running a waiting list. Cuirt and Gort na Coiribe fill up fast at this stage too but there are always a limited number of spaces that free up in August as well!

    Corrib village is mental! I live in Galway myself and have been over the a few nights and sometimes, especially rag week, it's just unreal! :D I'd definitely recommend going there anyway, although you mightn't get much sleep :pac:

    Im not too worried about that, it's how I've always imagined college! money is the only factor I'm beginning to worry about at this stage!
