NO MATTER WHERE you went to college, or even if you skipped it altogether, you’ll be familiar with student stereotypes. If you went to college up in the big smoke, then these stereotypes* will be even more familiar.
(*Fair warning – we know not everyone conforms to these generalisations. But you have to admit, there’s a grain of truth in there somewhere…)
UCD straddles two stereotypes – the typical South Dublin socialite and the Agricultural Studies student up from beyond the Pale. How these two stereotypes rub along together is anyone’s guess.
It’s probably a good thing there’s a lot of space on campus to avoid turf wars. (No pun intended.)

Trinity has the reputation for being elitist. As Samuel Beckett put it, Trinity is for “the cream of Ireland – rich and thick”.

DIT, with its spread-out campuses and relaxed vibe, is like the happy family of Dublin colleges. They don’t need to see each other all the time, but when they do it’s a big session. Known for their partying.

Art college is considered the preserve of the free-spirited, who might often forget to brush their hair or clean the paint off their Aran jumpers. Don’t even bother enrolling if you haven’t got a cool, artfully distressed bike yet.
