  1. Student Accommodation 2012-2013

  2. Before you start college.. • Research where you are going to live • Think about your options • What are your priorities? • Cost? • Location? • Living with friends? What can you do now about applying?

  3. Cheap is good but be careful you don’t end up here!!

  4. Is Campus a better option for you? • Pros • Location • Bills (electricity/gas) included • Get to know more people • Cons • Can be more expensive • Harder to study when lots of people together (can just go to library!)

  5. Think about who you will live with so you don’t end up with this!

  6. Living with Friends • Living with friends is great as you know them already but it is a good idea to be clear on house rules/what you want before you move in together! Think about these: • House parties/late nights • Cleaning/Housework • Division of bills/finances

  7. Campus Options • UCD http://www.ucd.ie/residences/mainmenu/studentaccommodation/ • NUI Maynooth http://residence.nuim.ie/Applyingonline.shtml • TCD • http://www.tcd.ie/accommodation/StudentsandStaff/Students/Campus/

  8. DCU http://www.dcuaccommodation.ie/ • NUI Galway http://www.campusaccommodation.ie/students/

  9. Remember.. • It is important to apply for campus early, check the closing dates as many are in the next few weeks • Most of them operate a lottery system but some give HEAR/DARE or scholarship candidates preference • You will have to pay a deposit which you may not receive all of it back( some charge admin fee)

  10. Private Rented Accommodation • For private rented accommodation (ie sharing a house with friends) a good idea is to check www.daft.ie for rentals available. • Some may not rent to students! • Watch out for 9/12 month lease, think about the summer also. • Every college has an accommodation office that will give out lists of student housing.
