Cao Handbook Form PDF Details

Navigating the pathway to higher education in Ireland is made considerably more straightforward with the comprehensive guide provided by the CAO Handbook. This essential tool serves as a beacon for prospective students, guiding them through the intricate process of applying to universities and colleges. With listings of participating Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) - complete with their contact information, codes, and vital links, the handbook is the first step towards securing a place in higher education. Moreover, the CAO Handbook outlines a detailed timetable of events, including application opening dates, change of course choices, and submission deadlines, ensuring applicants can manage their applications effectively and within the required time frames. Beyond simply listing deadlines, the handbook presents a wealth of information on categories of qualifications and assessments, offering valuable insights into the requirements of different institutions and courses. Importantly, it also encompasses provisions for diverse applicant categories, such as mature students, and outlines the procedures for applying for HEAR and DARE schemes, designed to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds or those with disabilities. By exploring the frequently overlooked aspects of the application process, such as sending supporting documents and applying for maintenance fee grants, the handbook empowers applicants with the knowledge to navigate the application process confidently. The inclusion of advice on accepting offers, deferring places, and the crucial stages of the offer rounds means that applicants are well-prepared to proceed once they receive their course offers, ensuring a smoother transition into their chosen field of study.

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of the Central Applications Office (CAO) is to process centrally applications for undergraduate courses in Irish Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), and to deal with them in an efficient and fair manner. The HEIs retain the function of making decisions on admissions.

This handbook has been prepared to provide information about the CAO application process. By reading this handbook carefully you will find out the information that you need to assist you with your application.

There are many avenues to be explored when you decide to make the journey into higher education. For the majority, that journey will involve a CAO application. It is important to note, however, that there are alternative access routes to higher education, other institutions offering further and higher education, and situations where you may have to apply to an institution directly.

You should allow ample time to research your course choices carefully, and check for matriculation and minimum entry requirements - you will not receive an offer of a place on your chosen course if you do not meet the minimum entry requirements. You can find out more information from the prospectuses and websites of the institutions, at Open Days, and from your Guidance Counsellor.

For some institutions, fees or a student contribution may be payable you should refer to the HEI website for fees information and go to www.studentfinance.ie or www.susi.ie for information about finance and grants.

If you have questions for CAO that are not answered in CAO literature or on the CAO website, or if you do not understand any instruction you receive from CAO, please contact us using the Contact form on the website

www.cao.ie.

APPL)CANT S RESPONS)BILITY

Before applying to CAO it is important that you note the following information:

You, the applicant, are responsible for ensuring that an application is submitted complete, correct and on time.

In any one year, you may not present more than one application.

You must examine the contents of this handbook carefully.

CAO and HEIs may assume that anyone who is able to quote your CAO application number is authorised to make changes to your application or act on your behalf.

Certain minimum computing facilities are required for online applications (e.g. the latest version of Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome) and we advise applicants to avoid the use of smartphones or tablets when submitting an online application to prevent errors or issues of device compatibility.

RESTRICTIONS

As a CAO applicant you may experience one or more of the following restrictions based on your course choices, your category of application, or restrictions imposed by the HEIs that you wish to apply to. Please read the following sections carefully:

General Restrictions

1.Submitting a Late Application – individual HEIs may have restrictions on Late Applications, for example, some HEIs may not consider Late Applications from certain categories of applicant. In particular, mature applicants and those presenting qualifications other than recently taken EU school- leaving examinations should check the relevant HEI website or make enquiries with the relevant Admissions Office before submitting a Late Application.

2.Making changes to your course choices – there are a number of intervals when you can make changes

to your CAO application. However, if you are applying for a restricted course or if you are a restricted- category applicant, you may not be able to use the free Change of Mind facility which opens in May and closes on the 1st July at 5:15pm. For more information about making changes to your application go to pages 14 and 15.

Exception: If a restricted course shares the exact same assessment procedures with a course you had

applied for by st February

Restricted-category Applicants

4.Mature applicants – most HEIs will require mature applicants, who wish to be assessed on mature grounds, to have applied to CAO by 1st February 2016 at 5:15pm. (This restriction does not apply if the applicant wishes to be considered on the basis of school leaving qualifications only.)
