Oh yeah and also what would the timetable be like for a full time course? Would you be kept as late as 6 o'clock? ( just trying to find out because of work etc as i live in dub)

Last year registration was September 3rd - 7th and classes started Monday 10th.
Our first day (DK721) was an introduction with the lecturers and then classes started early afternoon.
Expect classes to start at 9am and finish at 5pm.... You will have 26 hours of classes a week between 9-5 Monday to Friday. Friday's was our least packed day of the week.
First semester we got off at 3pm on Wednesday's so we could do club activities but that stopped in semester 2.
Travelling from Dublin daily will leave you fooked.

All courses have different amounts of hours, yours may not be 26 hours long, it could be less it could be more.

I know a lad who travels from whitehall in dublin everyday and says its fine, the bus service to and from dublin is pretty good.

it does start early compared to other colleges but then it finishes earlier too

you may have every second week with a certain day as your long day if they break the class in two for one or two modules. they done that in my course. ASC.
