LAST UPDATE | 30 Aug 2023
LEAVING CERT 2023 students are finding out today what third-level offers will come from the grades and subsequent ‘points’ they received for this year’s exams.
Round One offers have now been released by the Central Applications Office (CAO) and you can check them all on The Journal at the button below.
It’s a huge day for thousands of households – from students waiting to see what college they might be attending next month, to parents wondering whether they need to start a hunt for accommodation.
On that note, Further and Higher Education Minister Simon Harris today said those “looking for student accommodation will be going into a college system where there is more capacity than there was last year”.
He also encouraged people to avail of the rent a room scheme and added that there were close to 2,000 available to rent on college websites across the country yesterday.
Harris added that he wants to ensure that students benefit from the rent tax credit.
The Central Applications Office said it has issued 87,075 Round One offers to 57,980 CAO applicants, comprised 52,949 Level 8 course offers and 34,126 Level 7/6 course offers.
Over 31,000 students will have received offers for their first preference course.
Round One offers must be accepted by 3pm on Tuesday, 5 September.
Round Two offers will then be released at 2pm on 11 September – and we’ll have all the points right here on The Journal later that afternoon.
