College Students Distracted From Their Education In The Search For Accommodation
Many students are still trying to find somewhere to live for this academic year.
Students staying at University College Cork accommodation face hikes of up to 11.5% this year, with a room costing 6,068 euro, compared to 5,439 euro last year.
A spokesperson for UCC told RedFM News that the increase is due to the ongoing maintenance and security of the accommodation.
UCD's Roebuck Castle meanwhile is the most expensive on-campus accommodation in Ireland, costing more than 11,500 euro for the term.
The university's student's union entertainments officer, Tom Monaghan, says finding a place can be very stressful:
