cao offers next week.

If you get offered a college course I'd take it over a PLC any day in normal circumstances.

I'm fairly relaxed, the hard work is done on all our parts, it's just the waiting now. Out of our hands, just sit back and try relax. I've just been listening to music and keeping myself occupied.

what? did you think it was today and that you got no offer r something?

Just looking at a form I got from CAO a while with my change of mind documents, Some offers will be posted out today to mature students and will arrive by post tomorrow. Offers appear on the website at 10am Thursday 7th July.
I'd presume anyone that recieved a letter from the colleges already stating that they'll be offered a place on their chosen course will recieved an offer tomorrow.
Some college's require people to go for various assessments, I know NUIM are doing a Maths Assessment course starting next week and depending on how people do in that will decide if their offered a place. So with that I'd presume if you've already been told you'll be offered a place, you'll get your offer tomorrow but if you have to do one of the assessment courses then you won't receive an offer till August.
Also if you get one of your options your aswell to accept, if a course in a higher preference choice comes up you can accept that and the other is voided. As long as your offers are moving up your preference choices on your cao form you can keep accepting but you can't turn down your 1st choice for a lower choice as once you recieve a course higher up your choices, all options below that preference are automatically voided.

Sorry for long post but hope it helps.

Milanmio

yes:)

looks like only a very limited amount of places were offered today (those who need to make visa or other arrangements;deferred applicants;mature nursing/midwifery code applicants.) so it looks like its august the 4th for the rest of us to wait...

Ashiya

It sounds like only mature nursing and midwifery applicants will get results tomorrow? =/
That's sure what it looks like...

Round A In early July, offers of places may be issued to applicants such as : deferred applicants; mature applicants; mature nursing/midwifery code applicants; those who need to make visa arrangements before taking up a place.

Round Zero In early August there may be an issue of offers of places which go to certain categories of applicant who are not competing with those awaiting 2011 examination results or who are assessed on other criteria, i.e. graduate entry medicine applicants, additional mature applicants and applicants presenting FETAC (2002-2011) for consideration for entry to courses with a quota for FETAC applicants may also be included at this stage

This is from the CAO handbook. Mature applicants should get offers tomorrow with round 2 for matures on 4th August. Panic attack over

I read that as well, but if you go to My Application, it has the round dates at the top. If you click More Information you will then get the text that I pasted above. I do hope that what's in the CAO handbook is correct, maybe they used bad phrasing? I hope I am wrong with my earlier post XD

MFPM

Hunchback

i only got my 5th choice my first 4 choices all have a science subject in the LC as a prerequisite, which i don't have, but i thought as a mature student , you could get away with this, what with being considered a 'non traditional' applicant an' all ?

The Irish Gunner
