Ellen Curran - Student Spotlight 2026

The Student Recruitment Team at MU chat to current undergraduate students about applying to the CAO, transitioning to university life, life as a student in their chosen degree course, involvement in clubs and societies and their plans after graduation. In this episode we chat to Entrance Scholar Ellen Curran, currently a 2nd year student in the BA Bachelor of Arts degree (MH101). A Galway native, Ellen chose the BA degree because of the opportunity to study her favourite subjects - Music and Nua-Ghaeilge - and the flexibility of the degree. She tells us about her experiences of moving to Maynooth, making new friends, assessments and what she likes about MU.
