Personal recommendation

try to know what classes you are going to take before you leave, have at least twice the number you think you will, the scheduling of classes can be difficult.

Keep on going this way with accomodations arrangements, it's a kind of student pack, with studies and accomodation included!

I have a very good overall opinion about this experience! If you want to travel, no pb, there are plenty of bus companies providing daily trips around Ireland, for quite a cheap price (£10 average) Then, inside the University, you have the weekenders society, which a student union, organizing group trips all around Ireland, for really cheap!

Personal comments

Roisin dubh: nice pub with live concerts nightly Blue note: soul-jazz funk music inthere, really cool place to have a chat and pints... De Burgos: it's a cellar, whre you can find the cheapest pints in town! McSwiggans: huge pub, with a really nice mood, and atree growing inside! It's really hard to find the toilets there...kind of maze!!! Bazaar: moroccan style pub, not typically irish at all, but there are plenty of couches, and nice decoration. Couch potatoes: potato restaurant, cheap and really tasty Conlon's: Fish and chips restaurant, cheap and good
