You are here Trinity Pathways > Online Module Enrolment

Online Module Enrolment is the process of choosing your classes for the coming academic year. Undergraduate students to whom Online Module Enrolment applies must choose modules worth 60 ECTS credits for the academic year.

Junior Fresh (first year) students whose modules are entirely compulsory will not need to participate in the module enrolment process. Junior Fresh students that are participating will be selecting optional modules only.

For the full list of Trinity Elective codes please click here.

Note: Not all courses require Online Module Enrolment. If you do not receive an invitation via your my.tcd.ie in-tray, then then it does not apply to you and your school or course office will enrol you in your modules.

Only invited undergraduate students take part in Online Module Enrolment. Students do not have to be registered or have their fees paid in order to enrol in their modules.

Postgraduate students do not take part in Online Module Enrolment. They will be enrolled in their modules by their school. 

We recommend that you choose your modules on a desktop computer rather than on a phone, as the options appear clearer.  

Students

If you are a continuing undergraduate student, you will receive a message in your in-tray as well as an email to let you know that Online Module Enrolment is open. Once you receive the email, you can begin enrolling in your modules.

Click on the 'Online Module Enrolment Walkthrough' tab to see how to enrol in your modules.
