    Hey everybody. I'm just thinking of my possible options for my future career. I will be doing a course in Colaiste Dhulaigh from which I am able to continue to an Honours Degree in University of Sunderland. I would love to do it for a few reasons. One, it's something that I would like to try out; travel, study abroad, experience something completely different. Two, it's a great opportunity as it is only 1 year to have the Honours degree. Three, I really believe I would love the course that they are offering. Four, I've looked at a few videos on their website and the campus looks amazing.

    A few questions are in my head though.

    -Is it actually possible that I can go straight from a level 6 from Colaiste Dhulaigh and up to a level 8 in the University of Sunderland? Or could there be some other requirement?

    -Is it hard to get a loan? They have this loan that they are offering on their website so I think that would be my option if I'm going. I'm pretty sure I can't afford the £8250 tuition even if I ask my parents for a loan. I don't think they would be able to afford it either.

    -I haven't read much about the loan but I saw something regarding living costs loan or something. If I am to go there, I would probably want to avail of that, too. Is the loan amount sufficient to live on?


    Thank you all for your time and suggestions :D

    Could you post links to the course you're planning to do here and where it talks about Sunderland? I'll do my best once I have the info.

    Thanks. I'm not at home so I'll do it when I get home. It's the computer systems technician year 2 that I'm doing at the moment. I believe the sunderland thing is mentioned on the website itself of colaiste dhulaigh.

    Thank you very much. :)
