Trinity College Dublin or University College London

Hi all,

I’ve recently been accepted into two graduate linguistics programs - the M.Phil. at Trinity College Dublin and the M.A. at University College London. I’m excited at the prospect of attending either school, but I’m wondering if anyone out there in the world has any insider information about these programs or institutions? I’m interested in joining a tight-knit community (advantage: TCD), but my research interests lie in sociophonetics (advantage: UCL).

Any thoughts?

Graduate programs tend to be tight-knit communities, and at the graduate level the specifics of the degree are the priority. I love TCD and Dublin, but I think that it sounds like UCL is the better fit for you.

Hi collegemom3717 –

Thanks for the reply! Can I ask what your experience with Trinity has been?

Did my PhD, was a research fellow, and taught there. Happy days :slight_smile:
