Wondering if anyone else is applying to TCD, and if so what courses are you applying for? :smile:

Im thinking of applying to TCD but I live in Spain at the minute and need to do some research as to how to do it. I want to apply to Computer Science, which apparently is asking for 450 points (whatever that is in grade terms)

What are you applying for?

... Whether I'd enjoy myself there or would be quickly homesick. :s-smilie: I don't know much about that country; have never been there. I don't know if "I would fit in". :erm:

Are you from the UK? personally I'm from NI so its not that far away. Though I know what you mean cause I'm considering LSE but I know nothing about London and it is a bit far away. As for fitting in sure most new students will be having the same thoughts

No, more further down; I'm from France actually! :biggrin: Yeah, we'll all have the same fears and apprehension when moving in, I guess. Still, I really don't know. :erm:

Ah its fine as long as you don't mind the rain:tongue: ah deadly, France is a brilliant place to be from :smile: aye I know what you mean. It is hard to decide but tcd is supposed to be a very good uni and there will be likely be other French people or internationals there if that's what worrying you? everyone is in the same boat so to speak

Hey! I'm applying for both TCD and English universities, though my top choice out of both of them is TCD. I am having a few issues with the CAO process though, anyone reckon they can help? I have to send off photocopies of the exam certificates I have already taken, meaning my GCSE and AS level results. I have all my GCSE ones, but in England people don't usually get AS level results as they aren't needed, so you only get an A2 at the end of the two year course. What can I do about this? I have called the uni and they have said its mandatory that I get the certificates, but I'm just not sure how! Please, any tips at all would be so useful!

You don't need to send your As results. Just your GCSE results to prove you have a language at GCSE. You would have to send your A2 results to them though

I applied for History and Political Science! I hate that we have to wait so long to find out though, especially because I have already done my exams :frown:
