Maynooth University will take part in College Awareness Week from 21-26 November 2016. The Maynooth University Access Programme (MAP) has planned variety of events in educational and community settings to raise college awareness and to spread the message of the benefits of a university education. We will also be profiling mature students and their experiences of returning to study. We will have 5 student stories over the course of #CAW16.

We are College Aware at Maynooth University and we are looking forward to working with partners in this national initiative to raise expectations and create a college going culture across Ireland. ​For details of events in your area check out www.collegeaware.ie.​ #CAW16
