Study FAQ

What is supervised study?

We provide an area where students can come to study in a comfortable environment. While study is in session, there is complete silence to allow for students to get all necessary work done. There is also breaks, which allow for students to socialise.

Where is it on?

In the Ormonde Hotel Kilkenny.

Who can attend?

Any student who wants to study, from 1st to 6th year.

  • If we are in any doubt we will take the phone for the session – NO ARGUMENTS.
