All students interested in taking a language module must attend the UCD Applied Language Centre (ALC) for language consultation. This is to ensure that you are registered to the correct module for your language level. Registration to your chosen module will be provisional until language consultation has taken place. The ALC is located on the first floor of the Daedalus Building. Semester 1 language consultation will be available from the week before start of term (11 September).
