All on site learning activities are cancelled on Wednesday as everyone knows. However one of my lecturers is doing their lecture via zoom on Wednesday. Is this allowed as I thought it was against the rules of the union
I am applying as an IB student and was wondering what kind of documents they require from me? Would they ask for dp1/dp2 report cards or predicted grades or do they only ever ask for the official results?
I was kind of scared because my DP1/DP2 report cards had low grades and did not match the CAO cutoff but my official score is likely to be much more than that, not sure if they require those report cards or only the official ones are sufficient.
Please help, I am an EU IB student. I would love to hear from UCD applicants or students, or anyone who knows how the process works.
Guy in the room next to me speaks incredibly loud into all hours ( until about 3am latest ) has an alarm that goes off at 4:30, 4:45, 5:30, 5:45, 6:30, 6:45, 7:30, 7:45 and so on…
Is completely unreceptive to my personal complaints and has NOW… taken the part of the fridge I have used for the past 6 weeks with his own stuff. Is there any advice on what to say or do?? I have made attempts to say it to him personally but he doesn’t seem to care.
Hey everyone!
I'm an EU student taking the IB Diploma in May 2027, aiming for 37/45 points (around 508 CAO points).
I'm really interested in UCD's Economics, Mathematics & Statistics programme under DN700.
I've noticed the CAO cutoff has been increasing over recent years, so I'm wondering whether 37 points would give me a realistic chance for 2027 entry.
I'm also taking Maths AA SL (aiming for a 5–6). Would that meet the programme's Maths requirements?
Would love to hear from current UCD students or anyone who applied through CAO with IB results.
Thanks!
Hey, during the week 13 reading week (28th November-5th of December), are there any lectures? Or is it like a “break” from school to study.
I’m in DN200, maths (if that changes things).
Hey, a few friends and I (all UCD students) want to have a casual kickabout when no teams are training. Can a we just walk onto the campus pitches for a casual kickabout when they're empty and no team is training or playing?
We know you're supposed to book, but those rates are a crazy amount of money we don't have. Will security actually chase us off?
Thanks!
All of them bar one said 0%. Then one said 63%. I didn’t use AI - my Google Doc history will reflect that, as will my ChatGPT history. What concerns me is possibly being pulled for academic misconduct? Like please, I really don’t want to deal with that stress right now. What should I expect? I can 100% back up my sources, articles, but it’s just like dude - if I had used AI this would’ve taken me a day instead of a week. I wish I did!
Does anyone know if the UCD buildings are open today. I know library will be closed. But I have some work that I really need to lock in for so I was just going to sit in one of the buildings and lock in.
As an overseas student I wanted to ensure if it is needed before applying because it takes 20 weeks for processing.
Though my degree ticks all the required boxes and is verified .
I’m trying to weigh up student life between TCD and UCD.
UCD definitely seems to have a far superior budget. Their athletic infrastructure is impressive, whereas TCD's sports scene feels a bit fragmented. It’s hard to overlook that Trinity’s main pitches are completely detached from campus—commuting to remote, off-site facilities in Santry seems like a massive logistical hassle compared to UCD's all-inclusive hub at Belfield.
That being said, which college wins on the actual social scene present in the clubs and societies ? I heard that both colleges can be cliquey, but that Trinity is more welcoming and friendly than UCD.
Hey!
I’m an incoming international undergrad looking for the most socially active accommodation on campus to make tons of friends across different flats.
Which block stays the most alive on weekends when Irish students commute home? (Merville, Ashfield, Glenomena, Belgrove, or Roebuck Castle?)
Also, does UCD put internationals in the same flats or is it random? Also, what is the accommodation that has the highest number of international students?
I want to avoid being left completely alone on weekends. Thanks! 😁
