IRC Postgraduate funding 2016

brainiac

English and all other Arts / Social Sciences SHOULD find out in full tomorrow. It's only Science and Tech that need to wait. "Final Stage" this year literally means they aren't done with us but are with ye, since they haven't been releasing sporadic updates like in previous years.

So in short, you should know full IRC result tomorrow, and if you're in for Hume too, that should be some point this week.

So I take it we're all waiting up until 23.45 just incase! 😩

The completion of the maintenance work is no longer listed as 23.45. It just says 26-27th June inclusive. So it looks like I'll be up at midnight :silly:

Phoenix

Yes! This is worse than the Leaving Cert. And at least then I had cause to be hopeful. I think I'll be having IRC nightmares for years after this!

GaeilgeGrind12

It's torture. I know more than likely I haven't got it, but it's the hope argh

gcalvert91

Good luck sleeping tonight guys and girls lol. No doubt my dreams will consist of opening an email entitled 'Failure' followed immediately by my teeth falling out.

Side note I just realised - when I wrote Eng I meant Engineering.

Ye, Brainiac , I'll be waiting up too !!

Can't take much more of this!

Vin8

I'm on the Jack Daniels for the stress. Did you see the home page says there was 1071 applicants this year.

elbandita

Do you guys ever wonder if any of us know each other from around our colleges? I laugh thinking about all the people I know who applied for IRC panicking on boards with me while we're very calm and collected in person

Sarahjma

I think it might be safer not to know!

00.01 June 28th and NOTHING! More chocolate!

AstroArcturus

After all my going on about waiting, I'm feckin afraid to look now!

-edit, I looked, as vivek said, nothing! More chocolate indeed!!!

gcalvert91

Same here! Nothing. Well, looks like I'm off to bed. Good luck tomorrow everyone! G'night!

Cassie92

Good luck, fellow applicants! Think it's time to call it a night....and face the music in the morning...

Anyone sleep?

Looking at old threads. Last year they got an email on the date due (29 June) to say they were updating system and would announce results later that day ... It was 16.11 when they announced them Hopefully, because they closed site yesterday, we will get them earlier!

Exhausted!

Phoenix

Nope, no sleep. Wrecked. And still no access to submitted drafts.

GaeilgeGrind12

The torture continues

gcalvert91

Slept, but as predicted, had unpleasant dreams lol. Beginning to think that this torture is part of an initiation process.

Vin8

I've spent the last hour just hitting refresh on my email and the smart simple page. Its going to be a long day!!!
