    Started a course and I hate it in another college. Want to move to DIT and do one which is slightly similar but is it too late to transfer now?

    Had no replies from the admissions office :-/

    If you came in through the CAO you can not transfer until next year

    You could always apply again Via CAO. If you have the points you know you're nearly guaranteed a spot.

    Can you do advanced entry through the CAO. I'm not certain but I don't think so.

    If you have a few years college under your belt starting fully again will expensive. Advanced entry could knock a year or two off.

    I don't think you can. So long as you drop out before the deadline (I really can't remember what it is atm) you aren't liable for fees. You can apply again next year through the CAO and be treated as a new first year. (i.e. entitled to free fees, you just have to pay the €2000 reg/SC fee)

    The deadline is the 31st of October to receive a refund of the student fees.
