Residency SchemeThis Scheme is administered by the Irish Language Office and Coiste na Gaeilge (the university's Irish Language Committee) in assocation with the Registrar of Chambers to promote the use of Irish in university life by offering Irish language accommodation to a limited number of students who fulfill the Scheme's conditions. Fulltime undergraduate second, third and fourth year students with fluency in Irish are sought. Students must be willing to speak the language in the apartment on a daily basis as well as to support and attend Irish language events and fulfill other requirements. Each student is required to cover his/her/their accommodation costs but a grant payment of €1,000 per student is made over the course of the academic year to assist in covering these costs. One half of the grant is paid after Michaelmas Term and the remaining half at the end of the academic year. A separate application, outside of that for the Irish Residency Scheme, should be submitted to the Accommodation Office if you wish to live on campus or in Trinity Hall. In this way, if you do not receive an offer for a place on the Irish Residency Scheme, you will still be considered for a space in Trinity accommodation. See further details on the Accommodation Office's website here. Undergraduate students who have already been on the Residency Scheme (in the 2021-22 academic year or in previous years) can apply for a space once again. Please note that up to seven places will be made available for students who have been on the Scheme previously. A student can only complete the Scheme twice. Accommodationa) Botany Bay, Trinity campus
b) Trinity Hall, Dartry, Dublin 6
