MORE than 1,300 additional college places have been filled by the Central Applications Office in the latest phase of offers for this year’s highly competitive race for third level entry.

CAO fills additional 1,300 college places

After last week’s second round offers were made, almost 19,900 applicants were still without a place and little more than 1,000 of these can expect to be offered entry to a college course between now and the closure of the CAO process next month, based on patterns in previous years.

The CAO said 2,233 offers were accepted since last week’s second round, but many of these may have been by applicants who took up an offer from one of the two level 8 or level 7/6 course lists and later accepted one from the other list.
