Accepted my offer for Applied biology and bio-pharmaceutical science the other day but I'm wondering has anyone else received their registration pack yet??? Need it to show the social welfare that I've been accepted for the btea application and also will be moving to Galway the weekend so won't be at my current address to get it next week. Hope I get it by the end of the week

I was talking to someone from the college in castlebar today and they said they were waiting on round 2 offers so packs would be sent out next Monday, that was for castlebar so not 100% sure if it applies to the Galway campus but there's a chance it is, maybe give them a call tomorrow and find out. I accepted in round 0 so have been waiting a while!0 -

But surely the registration packs have to be out this week?!!
Online registration is on monday isn't it?
..and if people don't look for that kind of info online, they would have no idea!
I've already dropped my application in, but they're waiting on a letter from me from GMIT.
Moving up to Glasan on sat and I wasn't planing on coming home until next weekend:mad:
Yeah you'd imagine so. I might be jumping the gun..it will probably arrive tomorrow in the post after all the panic:D
Yeah I have my application in too and same as they rang me asking to get a letter from college showing I have been accepted but they weren't really putting pressure on me for it or anything. It's just the case I'd rather get the processing of the payments asap so be handy to get it sorted out with them this week..done and dusted.
Moving up myself Saturday too.. renting in Lurgan Park with few other girls

Ah I had intended on getting a room in a house, I wasn't to keen on Student accommodation. But I'm moving up by myself and I don't know anyone at all...so I thought it would be handier to get Glasan.
But I've heard rumours that i'm living with repeat first years that are a bit party mad. Don't know yet if I'm too keen on that:cool:
I actually want to pass my exams next year lol0 -

Ha, same.. I did half a year doing a level 8 in NUIG.
I think I've to pay 3,000 altogether for contribution/tuition.
Bit of a nightmare really...
It's gona be an expensive year:(
I was going to try get part time work in one of the nightclubs but sure with the Beta allowance you can't work or else it gets cut
Yeah I'm in same position. It was all grand first time round when ya didn't have to pay a thing..all for one fecking semester:mad: haha
Was going to get part time work myself to keep me going..I thought you could actually work so much without your payment being affected
Does Glasan work out expensive? Heard it's mad all right over there but good for first years.0 -

I'm not sure how it works out, but a friend told me that you can't work and get the beta at the same time. I might actually ask about that whenever i'm dropping down the letter.
I'm paying glasan with the payment plan, instead of paying two installments I pay 580 a month Sept-Jan. Works out as 55 euro a week, so its cheap enough.:D
Ya Glasan is handy for how close it is, but I would've rathered live in a house with strangers...the lads i'm living with all know each other as far as I know.
Still, looking forward to getting back to college...
I'm paying the contribution fee in two installments aswell, instead of all in one 0 -
I'm almost 100 percent sure you can work part time too whilst on btea so good news for us.I'm not sure how it works out, but a friend told me that you can't work and get the beta at the same time. I might actually ask about that whenever i'm dropping down the letter.

I'm paying 60 a week.. not too bad and sure its only like 5min walk too. All of us girls didn't know each other before we met so it's pretty good. Planning on having a house warming too:D
I'm gonna pay in two instalments too.. takes the pressure off some what
Are you doing a level 8?0 -

60 isn't bad at all, especially for a rented house
House warming eh?:D Must listen around for that !
I got offered Level 8 accounting and level 7 software development...accepted level 7 because i'd be more interested in that course.
I've heard the Accounting is a bit of a pain aswell....0 -

Haha I got offered Medical Science level 8 and Applied Biology and
Biopharmaceutical science level 7 but ended up taking the level 7 but i'll end up doing the add on for the level 8 anyway. It was a hard decision in the end because I was kind of equally interested in both but went with my gut feeling on this one.
Hang on you do realise you have no tuition fees to pay if that's the case because if you did a level 8 before and now are doing a level 7 you're not liable for tuition fees. It's only if you were going into a level 8 you would have to pay 1 semester tuition fees. Thats why choosing the level 7 option had that added bonus of less fees for me..just the registration fee 0 -

ya i'll probably go the same route and do the 4th year add on..
I'm going to ring about the beta tomorrow and working..
If I can do part time work then I might actually leave my cv's around on the weekend.
Would be really handy to get something before christmas
Oh really??? Jaysus thats great:D 700 odd quid less to worry about so...
If only someone would pay my contribution fee for me lol0 -
