    okay so iv passed first year of games development in lyit,
    but i proceeded to fail second year,
    basically id rather be closer to home,

    so was wondering how haveing first year passed would help me in regards to applying to computeing courses in dundalk??

    i should also add that the games development course in lyit is lv7, and in dundalk its lv8

    so would there be any chance it would get me into 2nd year of the lv8? doubtful but i always tought lv7 wasnt much differnt from the lv8 in first year?

    anyway any help would be appreciated,

    suggestions as to what courses it could get me into 2nd year in, i rather not have to start from scratch,
    unless it was a lv 8, because ill only get a grant if its lv8 or 2nd year of lv7 as far as i know

    Best to contact the college directly and ask, once your willing to pay the fee's for second year there shouldn't be an issue.

    but if i was to get into the level 8 i wouldnt have fees, since i havent done a lv8, or so the grant office have told me anyway, be it year 1 or 2,

    did email dkit, but no answer as of yet

    derek.oreilly@dkit.ie

    Head of the course there, more likely to get an answer from him!
    Give him a complete list of modules you did and your results and that should be all he'd need.

    If you do make it to second year here, it'll be good having a new person in the class! :D

    Better off ringing the college directly, you can then state the name of the person you want to contact and you should be put through to them.
