Steps to Enrollment
Welcome and Congratulations!
Applicants who are admitted to the Dual BA Program between Trinity College Dublin and Columbia University will have access to their acceptance materials via their Admitted Student Portal. This portal contains important, time-sensitive information about housing, student visas, Admitted Students Day, and the steps necessary to begin enrollment in the Dual BA Program between Trinity College Dublin and Columbia University. Students must confirm their intent to enroll in the Fall 2024 entering class no later than May 1, 2024, after which they will be sent additional information from Trinity College Dublin to help them prepare for their transition to the Dual BA Program in the fall.
If you have specific questions or concerns about enrollment in the Dual BA Program, we encourage you to make an appointment to speak with an admissions representative directly.
Submit Acceptance Reply Form and Trinity Deposit
In order to secure a place in the Fall 2024 entering class, you must send in the Acceptance Reply Form and a $555 USD deposit by May 1, 2024. To complete the form and submit your tuition deposit online, please log in to your application profile. You must reply by May 1 to secure a place in the program for the fall semester.
*Please note that non-EU students will also be required to submit a €2,000-€4,000 tuition deposit to Trinity College Dublin to secure their place in the incoming Fall 2024 class. More information will be sent shortly from Trinity describing the necessary steps for this tuition deposit process.

Submit Housing Application
Student housing is available for all Dual BA Program students. Because of high demand for housing in Dublin, the timely submission of a housing application is strongly encouraged.

Submit Final Transcripts
In order to finalize admissions to the Dual BA Program, students must submit official copies of all final transcripts and test scores to the Columbia School of General Studies Office of Admissions once the academic year is complete. Official high school transcripts should show the date of graduation. Students must also submit all applicable graduation exam results (e.g., French Baccalauréat, International Baccalaureate (IB), Irish Leaving Certificate, A- Levels, German Abitur, etc), as well as all Advanced Placement (AP) Exam scores and college or university transcripts so that we may evaluate these documents for transfer credits.
