It’s absolutely crazy that I also live in Fort Collins, CO and Colorado State University is also my safe choice for college, while Trinity is my reach!!
Really enjoyed the content. Got an Admit for Msc in Data Science at Trinity and really excited to start this September. It'll be interesting if you could also bring up contents on journey of students from India :) cheers!!
Thank you for the video! It was very helpful. I can't wait to watch the rest of the series. I wanted to ask if you know anything about master's degrees. I am currently studying English Literature in my home country and I would be really interested in some of Trinity's postgraduate programs, especially about translation. I am planning on applying for 2022. Do you know if it's hard to get in or do you have any advice maybe? :)
Hi!! I hope you have found the series helpful. As an undergrad student I don't know very much about masters programmes. So sorry!! I've heard great things about Trinity's English literature masters though :))
So I was wondering how the whole language situation is handled for EU students? I'm from Germany and I read through the bologna document thing and it says that a language certificate (cambridge, ielts that stuff) is required or a certain grade (which I have) however I read a bunch of conflicting information on how that is handled (some say you need the certificate and some say the grades are enough). I want to make sure that I don't do a 200€ certificate and end up not needing it to get in. I def don't have 200€ that I can just spend on a certificate unless I actually have to soo
Okay, so I heard from Gaia (in this video) that she took the Cambridge proficiency test with her school because she did the European baccalaureate, and it was paid for by her school. She isn't sure if she was asked for that document. She also did English at school. I'm not sure how else to check this information other than to recommend you to email someone at Trinity about it to know for sure.
Hi, I'm an EU student and I've started my application to Trinity. I've been trying to figure out how/if I need to add a personal essay and or references (as you do have to do all of those for UCAS applications) but I can't seem to find it anywhere.. The video clip was a bit short but basically the EU girls said you only have to submit your grades, right? Does anyone know why that is?
Hi! Sorry it wasn’t clear in this video, since it is included with information on the American process, but unlike the American process, you don’t need any personal essays or anything like that for the European application! All you have to do is set up a CAO account, and whatever exams you do in your country, the grades from that have to translate to ‘cao points,’ and however many points you get has to correspond to whatever course you want to do in trinity. Go to trinity’s website (look up EU student applications) or CAO.is for more info
@@QueenofQuirk so if im doing my final exam in my country from spanish, my first language , history and civics, do i need to submit my maths grade from previous year as Well? I dont have maths in my last year of school thats why im asking ://
I'm a missionary family from North India we need a admission for PhD in Biotechnology for my daughter Sibya Dinesh kindly inform me. Thank you Dr Dinesh Kumar from Jaipur Rajasthan
Hi I’m so sorry I never saw this! I probably won’t make one just because I wouldn’t be very helpful when it comes to this! I’d recommend you get in touch with Columbia or Dual BA admin or financial services about this. So sorry!
Do you know how the second-language requirement works if your native language isn’t English? So, if I’m not coursing a second language but am fluent in both English and another European language
When US applicants had to submit a letter of recommendation, how did that work? Does the teacher email the admission office the letter, or would they email it to me to link in my application?
Hello, I’ll be applying in the next few months, and when I asked this question, I was told that in your application, you give your reference’s email, and Trinity will email them a template to fill out. They have an option for references to write their own recommendations, and not use the template, but there are specific requirements for that. (:
Morgan Fields hey, thank you so much for answering my question!! I had emailed the international admissions office a while a go, and they still have yet to get back to me, so thanks so much for the help! :))... should I just tell my reference that they’ll email them a template or give them an option to write their own personalized one, or should I simply just mention that they’ll email them a template?
Faith Sebolt personally, I told them to fill out the template and didn’t mention the other option. I did not want to risk them or me accidentally doing it wrong, and have it impact my application process. 😬
Does anyone know if I need to send my documents to CAO physically or do you only need to send digital copies? The instructions on the CAO website are a little confusing and I don't seem to find a proper address.
@@QueenofQuirk thank you for your reply! What I understood from the instructions is that the documents need to be send physically, but I'll definitely try to email them first just to make sure!
I am a French student who would love to study at Trinity but I am a bit lost with the CAO application : do I have to send my high school grades from the previous years ? How do I join documents ?
Hi sorry for the delayed reply. I am not sure if you have to send your grades from previous years, I think it may just be your grades or predicted grades for your final exams. I am not sure though, so I’d suggest researching a bit more around their website to be sure. And I’m not sure what you mean by join documents, but if this is in relation to putting together transcripts from previous exams, if you need to send them at all, I’d say you can put them together via scanning on a printer, usually the computer combines them into one document that way. Hope this was helpful in some way!
im a little confused... i wanted to apply to trinity for fall 2021 as an international student, but it says that the deadline was july, unless i’m mistaken about something?
Hey :), I am an international student wherefore I chose the option "Other school leaving exams" . Below this is the section "brief description" and I can enter up to 200 characters. Do you maybe know what I am supposed to write there? E.g. which courses I take but that doesn't make any sense!! Thank you!!
@@QueenofQuirk Thank you for answering so fast!! I'm from Germany and yes it's the CAO!! I wrote them an email today so I hope they can solve that problem and regarding the predicted grades are those really already required in the Qualifications & Assessment Section?
Hi, I'm not quite sure if you already applied and even if you know if you got in, but I am thinking of applying in September/November, or whenever the applications open, if you do have some advice or just helpful things for the application process, I would love to get in contact with you! I am from Germany as well :))
Hii, I was just wondering if you or anyone you know knows anything about the music course at Trinity? I don’t know anyone who has done it and I haven’t seen many videos on CZcams to do with the course, and I would loveeee to do it. Thank you :)
I want to study medicine in trinity college Dublin but I am not sure about the application first, do we have a foundation year? second, do we have to do the HPAT? and in the last do we have to do UCAT?
Hiya, where are you guys from? Since I don’t do medicine I’m not entirely sure of requirements for international students. What I do know is that there is no Pre-med, if that’s what you mean by foundation year, unlike UCD. I’d imagine you have to do the HPAT instead of the UCAT, or one or the other. I’d suggest contacting someone through this link www.tcd.ie/medicine/prospective-students/how-to-apply.php
It really depends on the course you are applying for to be honest! There are different points assigned to each course in the CAO system so see how the points translate to your equivalent grading system and see how it is. It does take work to get in but it’s for sure not impossible ☺️
I hope you find the video helpful! Stay tuned for the future videos in the series!

Is it really very hard to get into trinity college dublin for masters in computer science
Great video. How come there's no one from Africa or South America BTW. Are they that scarce?
That’s only because I happen to not have friends from those continents. There are plenty of students from there at trinity!
