The Irish Second Level Students Union (ISSU) is also calling on ministers to ensure that first years’ are not squeezed out of the accommodation market because of the delayed results. And the ISSU is seeking certainty that students who have applied to EU universities will not lose out on places because of the delayed release of results. ISSU President Reuban Murray said was “completely in the power of the individual colleges to move back their start date for students and change the accommodation arrangements for incoming first years. The ISSU is also concerned for students who have applied to the UK and EU. There is real worry - and we need to give these students clarity as soon as possible”.
