Absolute best university I originally went to UCD but dropped out after a year and went to DCU, when comparing the two I found DCU had more to offer both academically and socially. It has a sort of family atmosphere where everyone plays an important role. Classes are smaller and more personal so lecturers go to a special effort to teach everyone at all levels, individually. The facilities for students are exemplary with only a short walk between all. In my previous college experience I had a long walking trip between facilities like gym and library, even basic lecture halls. Overall I’d really recommend DCU if you’re looking for a thriving college life and do well academically. 10/10

Excellent college with channels into any area of knowledge, would recommend
I really love DCU because of the relations students have with their lecturers. Everyone is treated individually, everyone can ask for help if needed and I feel like every lecturer really tries their best to make every student feel and do their best
A great college , it’s a really nice relaxed atmosphere where everyone feels accepted

DCU is community, people look after eachother and we are one big family. The uni is small but not too small it’s perfect!
