you shouldn't loose the "old oak", one of the biggest and tipical pub in Tralee. Everynight is special. Moreover you can travel around the island with the (not so good, but reliable) bus service and you mustn't miss the "cliffs of moher2, an exciting place in the west of the Ireland.

It was a very little town, but students can live in a large range of student apartments and houses. The town is growing and all these places are improving all their amenities.

Academic
Course recommendations
One has to be really organized to get a hold of all the notes and handouts that go through. But the course itself is not that hard.

There are not many places to choose in the city to go out or to do sports. At university is very easy to find out the main spots. Travelling is amazing in Ireland, but a car is essential, because train and buses dont work very good there.

Work opportunities:

Personal spending habits
Mostly because of the differency of prices, even if difference was not very big, and also because when you see that is the only year you will live that way you profit to do more things, to travel more, to party a little bit more, etc.

This university seems like very confortable. You can find lots of commodities and even if it's pretty far from the city center it's well linked with the city.
Teachers are very friendly and they try to make things more simple.
