repeating exam + portfolio assessment

jujumushu

repeating chemistry in june not for points,just for subject. does anyone know if this has to be filled in on the online cao application form?
also,what's the story with portfolio assessments,i've made my applications already but do the colleges ring with an appointment? and are you supposed to bring the portfolio/send it? and if you hae to send it does that mean you have to make colour photocopies of everything? not repeadting in school so i haven't been given the information:(

Portfolio depends where it's going.
For IADT/DIT/NCAD you have to bring it in, the college wont contact you, it's up to you to find out about it. The NCAD deadline is past (was last Friday), the other two are in March I think. For NCAD, you hand it in and you can come and pick it up a couple weeks later, same for DIT (only I think you only have to wait a day or two, not sure), for IADT you hand it in and get it back on the same day iirc.
If you send it, you have to send the originals, I believe. My sister sent her portfolio to a university in England, we had to get a special box made to transport it over.
For the senior colleges, I think the case tends to be that you bring the portfolio to the interview with you, but don't quote me on that, you need to find out the details for the course you want to do.

I think the CAO might have an option somewhere for putting in details of past LC results, not sure. I advise reading ye olde CAO handbook/website.

see that's the thing,im applying to cit and dit and loads more colleges in and around dublin.the portfolio ass. for those colleges are all 6th/7th of march i think,does that mean i have to bring it to all of them over two days?

as for the cao its going completely over my head,and i cant edit anything until march i think....thanks for the reply though

Hm. I would have thought the colleges time it so your portfolio doesn't need to be in two places at once.. I guess if they're clashing, ring them up and see what you can do, maybe send in your portfolio a bit later/earlier if it's possible.

chemistry would only need to be included on your cao if you are doing it as a subject requirement for a particular college course.
