    I'll be going into first year - hopefully doing environmental science or science choice. Right now I've Plassey booked. I'd just like to hear about it from people who stayed there. Also I'd like to hear about the other on-campus student villages and the Craic in UL in general :)

    I lived in Plassey for 1st year and am going back next year for my 4th. It's a lovely area, sometimes gets a bit rowdy but it's very welcoming for newcomers, especially if you're a 1st year and a little nervous. Rooms are very nice and comfortable but internet is an ethernet cable that barely reaches to the side of the bed (I just sat in bed close to falling off).

    I don't really know what you wanna know but I lived there for a full year in first year so ask any questions and I'm happy to help :) I'll be around in Plassey next year too if you're in need of help :)

    I lived in Plassey for first year and one semester of 2nd year. I really liked it for first year! I met loads of people in the first few weeks, and even though I didn't stay friends with most of them, it was great to know so many faces around campus. It can get a bit noisy, especially depending on your house and housemates, but most of all I found it grand!

    If you have any questions in particular fire away :)

    You can buy much longer cables in O'Mahony's for something like €3.

    Hey, we are looking for a room for the first semester only in UL as my son will be doing CO-Op after Christmas. Any ideas as to where to look? So far, we have had no luck, everyone wants a full year lease(which is understandable!)
    Thanks in advance
