    Just thought I'd start a thread for everyone coming into 1st year in september 2010.

    Just a general place to discuss what courses everyones in etc.

    If everyone posting could say what course and subjects they're planning on doing


    I'm in Arts MH101 and I'm planning on Psychology, Computer Science and French/Maths.. can't decide which yet!

    :D

    I've been accepted into finance and economics but I'm absolutely gutted I wanted finance and accounting. I missed out buy 5 reckon points.

    I'm hoping some drop out so that I can get a second round offer or switch courses.

    Anyway I'm still a maynoothian.

    Don't panic just yet. If you accept Finance & Economics, do your exams in May 2011 and get 60% (or above) average, you'll probably be able to transfer to Finance & Accounting in second year. Call the dept of economics, finance & accounting. They're a nice lot in there!

    I'm going into second year finance and accounting, the two courses are identical in first year and I got an email about changing courses and the finance an economics course was one I could have changed to after first year. So dont worry about it. Congratuations on getting it :)
    Congrats to everyone who got a place.

    I'm a FETAC applicant and I got Arts. It going to be difficult transitioning from the lazy PLC life to University!
    I'm thinking about History and Anthropology but I want to check in one a lecture or two before I make a definite choice.
    I am so nervous because unlike the PLC course, I'll be going to Maynooth without anyone I know by my side to worry with! Taking the right train will be frightening enough as it is...Hope I don't get lost once I get off of it :o

    Best of luck to you all guys. You're in for a treat. Maynooth is a student paradise. Had some fantastic times there and made some great friends. Get involved in everything, go to every party, and steal anything not nailed down:p

    Ditto, I had a great 4 years there. Maynooth is a great place to go to college as everyone is a student in the town its self. Definitely join as many clubs as you can as you will meet a lot of people this way.
    Too bad there the LA still isnt about, was a great place to meet fellow first years or bump into your Maths tutorial teacher who you had the next day at 9am :D

    And remember your grades dont count until final year :cool: Well unless you do the 70-30 thing

    Some houses are nice, some aren't. However, most off campus students live there, it's kind of like campus accomm for those off campus. The Newtown Inn is a lovely pub too with a Chinese inside it! That place will be mad a few tiems a year like at Xmas.

    Enjoy first year everyone. Maynooth is simply fan-f**king-tastic.

    ello, I'm Emma :)

    I'm starting English, I can't wait! I'm a bit terrified that I won't make any friends (going it alone), but really excited!

    Now I've just gotta sort accommodation if I don't get student accommodation!

    See ye all in a few weeks :D
