I didn't hear anything from UL either so I'm really hoping something comes in the post tomorrow because I'm kinda confused as to what I'm supposed to do!

Id say look on the website for whatever college you applied for. Most will have info on there about registration.
Most of the colleges will be sending out information packs anyway so relax a while. They will need to send you the forms on how to get the registration giro from the bank, where to go to pick up a timetable... *or they'll post u a copy, orientation day... and you will need to sign the college registrar as well.

SO dont worry if you havent heard anything yet. Twil take em a while and theres a few weeks to go before the new term kicks off.

UL's info page on important dates are here to give you an idea...

I'm so impatient, I was expecting to receive my registration pack today from ITB. I hope I get it this week.

When does college usually start up by the way? I hope I don't have to wait too much longer, I'm actually bored stiff being on my holidays now. I'm out with my friends all the time but I think we're all getting a bit sick of seeing each other every single day for the past two months, lol.

They used to start up round the beginning of october but everyone i know starting a course this year is looking at going back mid september.
Relax... the package will come that will explain everything to you. It is a big step, but everyone is in the same boat.
