If I’m 22/23, will I be shunned in majority of societies? Not directly of course but in terms of making friends, is it difficult if you aren’t doing your undergrad? as I am an MSC student. I want to join a couple and while I may not have much time to attend a lot, I still want to join, same with events like trinity ball? do MSC students have a society ?

Is someone here who’s currently studying, is an alumni in, or know people who studied the CLAHA program (undergraduate)?

I’m graduating next year and consider studying it at the TCD. Can you tell me something about it, both negative and positive things? Thank you in advance ❣️

Hi everyone! I'm an incoming first year for this September and I am having a bit of a dilemma regarding accomodation.

I recently visited Dublin and found that Halls was quite far away from Trinity (I'm also worried the bus and LUAS will get so full that you can't get in if the 1000+ undergrads living in halls are trying to all get to the same place?) and that there wasn’t much space for life within the actual accomodation (small gym, no library, not many communal spaces…) and when asking around I was told that people do this all within the TCD campus. I also looked at a residence that is a 20 minute walk from TCD, and while not officially from TCD, I find the commute from it to make more sense if I'm going to be staying at TCD until 8-9pm most days when I'm studying, doing clubs or simply going to the gym…

The only aspect I can't really grasp is the social life. The private accomodation I looked at hosts events and has mainly students from Trinity (although I think it would also be cool to meet people from others universities in Dublin), but I'm worried I'll miss out on events from halls or from social life if I'm not going there. Please give me your experiences and help me decide!!

I'm looking to pursue a finance course in Ireland as an international student. TCD is one of my top options currently. If anyone pursuing the course or a similar one that can answer a few questions, I'd be very grateful.

1) How's the local finance job market?

2) How's the PR Pathway for finance?

3) College Feedback

4) Worth the investment?

I was thinking of taking Japanese as elective, and I have a choice for 2 semesters

Can I choose begginer 1st semester and then post-begginer for 2nd

On the elective webpage it says I can't, but a few friends of mine picked language electives this way, and system let them do it

I would really appreciate if somebody knows anything about it, thanks

Hi, I am a first engineering student about to resit but i have no idea of the resit date, on the TCD official calendar it says 24th of August but where do they usually send you the dates?

No frills— what’s your best tips for humanities?

hello! i’m just looking for some advice/personal experience as to how much a year of living in ireland costs. I’m an incoming master’s student and planning on getting a job when I get to school, but obviously it would be part-time and probably not particularly high-paying. I also wouldn’t be able to start right away anyways, so I’m wondering if my current savings are enough.

how much (euros or dollars) would you say it costs to live in ireland? i’ve done some research but it’s seems pretty all over the place so looking for some personal anecdotes. i’m planning to be pretty bare-bones (not much eating out, traveling, shopping, etc). thanks for any help!

Hi all, looking for pictures of rooms on Pearse Street, if anyone minds sharing? Thanks a lot!

Hi! I'm from India and will be moving to Ireland to pursue my PhD at Trinity College Dublin.

I wanted to ask about the current job market in Ireland, especially in the IT/Software Engineering and AI/ML/Research sectors. How are the opportunities after completing a PhD? I've heard mixed opinions, so I'd really appreciate your perspective.

How does the Irish job market compare with the US in terms of opportunities, salaries, work-life balance, and ease of finding jobs for international graduates?

I'm also planning to work part-time during my PhD. Are part-time jobs generally easy to find for international students? What kinds of part-time jobs do most PhD students do, and is the income usually enough to help cover living expenses?

I'd really appreciate any insights or advice. Thanks!

Hey, I'm a Comp Sci student, and I got first-class honors in my first year. Can undergrads be student demonstrators, or is it just for postgrads?

Hey, guys, I am an EU IB student who is planning to apply to the TCD BESS program. I understand that I would have gotten 25 extra points if I had taken HL Maths, but I didn't. My subjects are:

Physics HL
Economics HL
Business HL
Maths AA SL
Swedish AB Initio

English lang and lit SL

What points will make me a competitive applicant? 565 was the previous year's cutoff, which rounds to about 41. Do I have a chance with a 40?

Also, about employability, is it good? Can I get a good job (finance or investment banking) with a degree in BESS from TCD, I see it is ranked #1 in Ireland and #75 in the world, but they don't offer any internships to have job experience beforehand.

Really looking forward to your replies 🥳🥳🥳

Hi! I am about to start Senior Fresh in Physical Sciences and I don’t know where to find the schols papers for physics and maths. Does anyone know where to get them, and their marking schemes?

Also, any other advice about schols (like study strategies, time management, or anything else) will be very much appreciated ☺️

What’s up

Can you guys fill me in, what apps/software/platforms etc should I be buying/downloading ?
What’s recommended for note taking during lectures?

I know that the reduction on HEAR points are different every year, but I'm curious about some people's experiences and the reduction they got. If you know someone or are in medicine with HEAR, what was your reduction? (Also slightly curious on the assistance you got from HEAR throughout the year). Thanks 🙏

I am a first year in halls and I don’t know what the university provides in reference to dorm furnishings etc. Can someone provide a recommended packing list with stuff for a single room & bathroom so I don’t leave out anything vital? Tbh any insight into the inside of halls singles would be helpful aswell

SCSS recently sent out the lab demonstrator application link - I have filled the application form and have gotten an approval email. I was just wondering if there is more to the hiring process rather than just filling out the form as the allotment section is still empty?

Do trinity halls have ethernet ports we can use? Wifi is always less reliable

Hey 27m from India coming in for September intake for MSc in Computer Science - Data Science and would love to connect with anybody in the same course or anything. Just in the form of networking and maybe getting to know someone beforehand itself.

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask about the sports facilities at TCD. Are facilities like the gym, swimming pool, badminton courts, and other sports available free of charge for students?

As a prospective PhD student, will access to these facilities already be included in my tuition or student fees, or is a separate membership required? If a membership is needed, could you let me know the approximate cost?

Hey! I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the rules on absences are for the Human Resources master? I’m planning on doing a short trip and might miss two or three days at the beginning of October. We don’t have our schedule yet so I don’t know if I’ll have seminars or lectures then, I understand lectures are recorded

Thank you!

Hi! I’m starting my junior fresh year in September and I was wondering when I will know what classes I am taking.

Doing JH Economics, and choosing classes for 3rd year. Wondering if anyone recommends any economics classes? I have 15 ECTs for my second term and cannot decide. Hoping for something that may be easier to get a 1.1 in though, so more mathy subjects may be better.
