    Can someone give me a list of the various courses which don't require maths as a specific entry requirement.

    I know most law/legal studies courses don't require you to have passed maths but what are the others.

    They do more than religion. You can study music, english, irish and a host of other subjects there without taking a vow of celibacy. Although I imagine their freshers week isn't the best, probably have good wine though.:D

    Mater Dei is a teacher training college, with Catechetics (Religion) as the main subject and then History, Music or English as an elective. The main areas of study are Theology, Education and the elective. In terms of the teacher training element, it's very good.

    Maths is not important to any real degree in an Arts based course:confused:
    Unless it's a BA in Economics or Math's etc.

    Is maths not a pre-requisite to get into most universities, even before considering the course?

    Nope.
    Every college is different, UCD require a language other than Irish and English but not having maths is no problem if you're doing arts in most colleges.

    Trinity require it apparently but not UCD.
