Filling in the CAO was a daunting process, however after weighing up all of my options St. Patrick’s College seemed like the perfect choice. By choosing St. Pats I could study the interesting and thought-provoking subject that is Theology, while also having the opportunity to pick from the wide variety of Arts subjects they offered through NUIM. As I began college in September 2012 studying Theology, English and Sociology, I soon realized I had made the right choice. St. Patrick’s College offers the unique opportunity to study in a close-knit environment, with excellent support systems in place to ensure you have the best possible experience you can, while also giving you the chance to experience the hustle and bustle of NUIM – so you truly get the best of both worlds!

I really enjoy walking into class in St. Pats where everyone knows you, especially after being in a lecture theatre in NUIM with over 400 students. It is this relaxed and inviting atmosphere which truly allows you to feel welcome from the moment you step onto the aesthetically incredible campus. From the lecturers to fellow students, everyone is a part of the caring and encouraging community that is St. Patrick’s College.
