Incoming third level students across the Shannonside Region will be under pressure to secure college accommodation according to a local student representative.

The Minister for Education today announced that Leaving Cert students will now receive their results on the 25th of August.

That's more than a week earlier than last year, which left many students scrambling for accommodation just days before their college course began.
