NUI Maynooth Info

The National University of Ireland, Maynooth is located in Maynooth, Ireland in the County Kildare, approximately 30 minutes outside of Dublin. It holds about 8,500 students, including postgraduates. The university expanded from St. Patrick's College, which was founded in 1795, making NUIM the second-oldest college in Ireland (after Trinity College in Dublin, which was founded in 1592).

NUIM is divided into two campuses: north and south. The southern campus holds St. Patrick's College and contains the original 18th century buildings. The northern campus is much more modern and contains most of the student residences and class buildings. It had several places to eat such as the Phoenix Restaurant, the Chill Cafe and the Student Union Bar. At the edge of the northern campus is the River Apartments, which is where I live.
