Students hoping to live on campus at UCD for the next academic year will have to pay up to €14,000 for their accommodation, it has been announced. The college has released details of its on-site accommodation for the 2021/22 academic year, with options ranging from €8,059 to €14,465 for returning students looking to rent for the standard two semesters. Broken down, the students would pay €203 per week at the campus’s two cheapest halls. At University College Cork on-campus renters will be charged €6,364 for two terms. UCD student union President Ruairí Power said he believes the university is deliberately developing expensive accommodation to target affluent international students.
