I am too. I'm going into final year engineering. I asked the accommodation officer and he said that it was due to the fact that some courses haven't gotten around to saying that we are final years now and can apply for campus. Either way I think its across the board for final years

I am going into final year and i applied for on campus a few days ago. Didnt have any problems at all. really hope i get on.
The choices i got were glenomena 38 weeks, glenomena 53 weeks or proby house 38 weeks and proby 53 weeks. Dont know why they give me proby cause i do science! Why would i want to live in blackrock???

I don't think I'd like to live on campus. I'd prefer the freedom of my "own" place.

Just wondering if anyone has had an offer yet? I applied for Glenomena 52 wks or whatever it is, I'm a postgrad and from Waterford so really hope I get it - but they seem to be a bit slow to let me know....

I rang today and they said that they'd be out at the end of July... bleh annoying!

Really, the end of July??!! That's ages away!

Of course it is, most postgrads won't get accepted into their courses until then and it'd hardly be fair to fill the campus with those whose courses are more prompt at the expense of others when the spaces that are left will invariably be filled by undergraduates.

The whole thing is far more complicated than it appears or needs to be. But that's what you get when things are more about politics than actually doing the job. Then the people on the ground get the flak.

I pity the people in the accommodation offices, they do so much work and receive no thanks for the lengths they go to for people.

Blush 01, that's a good point I didn't think of it like that - I presumed postgrads had been accepted by now... it makes more sense now, thanks!

From http://www.ucd.ie/residences/allocation.html

Final Year Students
287
Postgraduates:
500

Wouldn't it make sense to fill those 287 positions sooner rather then later?

Do you think that they would leave empty spaces in accommodation simply because a student was an undergraduate as opposed to a postgrad? I'm not talking about the designation within the accommodation, I'm talking about the undesignated spaces undergraduates get.
