Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

4. The CAO
Organisation founded in 1976 by the
higher education institutes (HEIs) in the
Republic of Ireland.
Purpose is to process applications
centrally and to deal with them in an
efficient and fair manner.
It is the applicant’s own responsibility to
ensure that the application is submitted
accurately and in time.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 4
6. Core Subjects - MATHS
Fewer than 20% of Leaving Certificate students take this
subject at higher level (nationally)
If you are capable of studying this subject at higher level,
there are tremendous career opportunities
Higher Level Maths (C3) is a requirement for Level 8
Engineering Degree Courses and Mathematical Science.
2012: BONUS points (25 pts for achieving D3 in HL maths or
higher) where students have an honour (C3) in higher level
maths – now awarded in all the NUI’s, TCD, UL, DIT,
teacher training colleges etc
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 6
7. Accompanying conditions:
The six best results, in recognised subjects, in
one Leaving Certificate Examination will be
counted for points computation.
One sitting only of the Leaving Certificate
Examination will be counted for points purposes.
In the case of Foundation Level Mathematics or
Foundation Level Irish, some HEIs may not award
the points shown above. If in any doubt, check
with the Admissions Office of the appropriate
HEIs.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 7
10. The Application Process

your course choices then now is the time to
rectify your error.

05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 24
25. Communicating With CAO
The easiest and most efficient way to

certificate of posting at the post office. This is a
free service and it offers you peace of mind.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 25

error or omission, amend the Statement and
return it to CAO.

05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 26

communication to all applicants.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 29
30. The Offer Process
Ifyou are entitled to an offer, you will be sent an
offer notice. You should check that all of the
details on the offer notice are correct and that
there are no omissions.
Offers will also be available on the CAO website.
You may check for and accept offers on the
website. In fact, most applicants now record
acceptances online.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 30
31. The Offer Process
Your offer notice may contain an offer
◦ for a Level 8 course
◦ or a Level 7/6 course
◦ or both
If you receive two offers at the same time you
may only accept one of them.

carry out the instructions on the offer notice
before 5.15pm on the closing date for acceptance
printed on the offer notice.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 31
32. The Offer Process
There can be no delays at the
offer/acceptance stage. (one week to
accept or reject once offer has been made)
Any offer not accepted by the closing date
for receipt of acceptance of offers in CAO
will be offered to another applicant in the
next round of offers.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 32
33. How Places are Allocated
We will look just at Level 8 courses, but
exactly the same process will take place
with Level 7/6 courses, and at the same
time.
The importance of you, the applicant,
placing courses in genuine order of
preference will become apparent in
the following slides.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 33
34. How Places are Allocated
When examination results are released in
August they are entered into the CAO
computer.
The computer checks each applicant’s
results. For each course the applicant has
applied for, the computer first determines
if the applicant has the minimum entry
requirements for the course.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 34
35. How Places are Allocated
Ifthe applicant meets the minimum entry requirements for
the course, the applicant’s points are calculated for this
course choice.
Some courses have a specific requirement i.e. B3 minimum
in HL English to do journalism in DCU. If I do not achieve
this grade then I do not get offered this course
irrespective of the number of points I obtain in the Leaving
Certificate.
Alleligible applicants are then placed in a list, in order of
academic merit, for each course that they applied for.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 35
36. How Places are Allocated
The admissions officers of the Higher
Education Institutions tell CAO how many
places are to be offered on each course
CAO then makes offers to the required
number of applicants on each course starting
with the applicant with the highest points and
working down until enough places have been
offered.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 36
37. How Places are Allocated
Should some applicants decline to accept their
offers these places become available in the next
round of offers. They will be offered to the next
applicants on the order of merit list.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 37
38. These are the applicants for CK101 Arts in UCC.
The examination results have not yet been released, so
these applicants are in no particular order.
We are going to trace the progress of the applicant
marked in red.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 38
39. Applicants are placed in a queue for each course they
applied for, their position in the queue is determined by
their points. The applicant with the highest points is placed
at the top of the queue. The points achieved by the
applicant in red determines his/her position in the queue
for each course he/she applied to.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 39
40. The applicants marked in green have enough points to be
offered places.
The applicant marked in red has enough points for his/her
second preference.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 40
41. The applicant in red is offered his/her second preference,
the highest preference course that he/she has enough
points for, and he/she will now disappear from the queue
in all his lower choices. Placing DN201 as his second
preference meant that he/she would prefer to receive an
offer on DN201 than on any other course except CK101 -
which is his/her first preference.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 41
42. Having been offered his second preference he/she must
now decide to accept it or to do nothing. If he/she does not
accept the offer the place will be offered to another
applicant in the next round of offers.
Regardless of whether he/she accepts or not he will still be
considered for an offer on his/her first preference if a place
becomes available. In the second round, one more offer was
made on CK101 and our applicant is now at the top of the
queue.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 42
43. In the third round of offers two more offers are made on
CK101 and our applicant, who was at the top of the queue,
now receives an offer.
He/She may do nothing and remain in DN201 or he/she may
accept the offer and begin in CK101.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 43
44. Genuine Order of Preference
• You do not need to guess what the points are
going to be for the courses you are interested
in.
• Simply list your courses in genuine order of
preference from the highest preference 1, to
the lowest preference 10.
• If you are entitled to an offer, you will be
offered the highest preference that you are
entitled to.
05/11/12 Mr. Frank Farrell 44
