Leaving Cert will play a role but will be different to someone coming straight out of school and your experiences etc while travelling are taken into account.
Yes you will have to go through the CAO. Contact them for how you go about it. Don't know about a grant but B2E is possibility(??) again contact a guidance counsellor/CAO/college you would like to go to for answers
