Just wondering: any other high school students who have applied to TCD through the Atlantic Bridge Program? I am a high school student from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada who applied to UCD, RCSI and TCD. Looking at this year's threads (and past years') I have not seen any high school students applying to TCD even though they do offer a direct entry program straight.

I do not believe that TCD even offers a program for students who have not received a university degree yet. Check out the FAQs on the ABP website. I found this for you, it may be of some interest since the only schools that offer the 6-yr direct entry program for high school students include UCD, NUIG, and RCSI.

"University College Dublin, The National University of Ireland, Galway, and The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland also offer a six-year medical degree course for students entering directly from high school and for high school graduates who have also taken college / university-level courses but will not have earned a bachelor's degree by September 1st of the proposed year of entry."

I went on Trinity's website and they do offer a direct entry medicine programme to high school leavers. Added to that is the fact that one of my cousins applied many years ago straight from high school to Trinity via ABP and he got in.

Did your cousin have full IB? The undergraduate program at TCD is a 5 year program. I'm not sure how could you get admitted from high school unless you have studied the elements of the foundation year. I guess your best option would be to call admission at TCD Tuesday morning and ask them. They are closed tomorrow for St. Patrick's day.

All/most UK programs are 5yr and they are right out of high school.

Always refer to the ABP website when dealing with Irish medical schools. I do not know about what happened in the past, but the current website does not offer this option.
