Anyways, I have now officially applied for an Early Start Semester in Irish Archaeology at University College Cork for this coming fall. If you want to learn more about the program and get as excited as I am for it check out this link: http://www.ucc.ie/en/media/visit-us-early-start-irish-archaeology.pdf.
I really hope that I get the modules (I love how much fancier this sounds than classes) that I put on the application:
- Introduction to Irish History for Visiting Students
- East and West Origins of European Identity
- Aspects of Irish Folklore
- Introduction to Modern Irish
- Archaeology of Early Medieval Ireland
- The Archaeology of the Viking Age: Scandinavia and the North Atlantic
While this may seem like a lot of courses, Swat will only count each as 2/3 of a credit, assuming they all get approved for credit (good thing I have 7 AP credits as a cushion just in case).
Well that's all for now. Oh and bonus points to whoever figures out the reason my blog is titled "Where Finbarr Taught, let Holly learn." Super bonus points if you know it without using a search engine.
