Terms & Conditions
All offers of a place are subject to UCD's Terms and Conditions of Offer.
You must apply via CAO no later than 1 February of proposed year of entry.
In addition, you will have to submit supporting documents to show your eligibility for DARE by 15 March.
Please see the (opens in a new window)Access College website for details of the required documents.
If you are deemed DARE eligible you will be considered for a DARE place in UCD if you meet the following minimum admissions requirements.
Not necessarily. We have a target number of places to offer to eligible DARE applicants in most courses. This means that, admission is competitive if there are more eligible DARE/HEAR applicants, who meet the minimum admission requirements, than places available. For some courses, the lowest DARE offer has been close to the standard cut-off. As an indication, the average minimum score at which offers were made previously are shown below.
Note: as with all cut-off points the minimum can vary significantly from year-to-year
Priority Groups: As stated in the handbook on the (opens in a new window)Access College website, priority is given to DARE eligible applicants with physical and sensory disabilities and those who are both DARE and HEAR eligible who meet the minimum requirements outlined above. Any places remaining are assigned eligible DARE and HEAR on points ranking.
In the table below # no eligible applicants in the category or the quota was filled with applicants from the priority groups. Points for those admitted from the priority groups may be lower than the average shown below as they are not included in the averages.
