Orientation for students arriving in January 2024 will take place from 15-19 January, with a small number of events scheduled for the week of 22 January. You'll find your timetable and other important pre-arrival information on the Timetable page.

Module enrolment

Module Enrolment is what we call the process you follow to sign up to your classes.

You should already have completed Online Module Enrolment. However, there will be an amendment period in January to fix any issues with your module choices. Both the Module Enrolment and Module Removal form will reopen and be available on the Module Enrolment page from Monday January 15th at 12pm until Monday January 22nd at 5pm. Students will be sent a reminder email closer to the time, and Module Enrolment sessions held during Orientation week will provide further guidance on the process.

As well as checking the Timetable page for your Orientation Timetable, make sure to check the Module Enrolment page to learn more about the Module Enrolment process and amendment period.

Am I an Erasmus student or a Visiting student?

Certain Orientation Week sessions are held specifically for Erasmus or Visiting students. This will be indicated on the Orientation Timetable page.

Erasmus students are students who are enrolled at higher-education institutions within the European Union who visit Trinity for either a semester or a full academic year. Their study at Trinity is subject to an Erasmus Agreement.*

*Students from a select number of institutions outside the EU may also visit Trinity on an Erasmus Agreement, and thus be considered Erasmus students.

Visiting students are students who are enrolled at higher-education institutions outside of the European Union, whose one-semester or one-year visit to Trinity is not subject to an Erasmus Agreement. Visiting students might also be referred to as 'Study Abroad' or 'Exchange' students.
