Work out your points and this page will show where your total sits against this course.
Year by year
Round one is the figure most people mean by the points. Round two is what was left after the first offers went out, so it is usually lower and it is not a cut off for the year.
| Year | Round one | Round two | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | 308 | – | |
| 2021 | 308 | – | |
| 2022 | 318 | – | |
| 2023 | 304 | – | |
| 2024 | 307 | – | |

A dash means no comparable figure is shown for that round. It does not mean the course did not run or that no later offer is possible. Figures are read from the CAO’s published points charts. AQA means all qualified applicants were offered places. * means not all applicants on that score were offered places in that round. # marks a test, interview, portfolio or audition; v marks a new competition for available places.
How it moved
Each row is one year against the year before. Left is a fall, which is the year the course took fewer points than the last one.

It has stayed inside 19 points across the years held here, where the middle course of the 1,175 with figures in four years or more spans 47. Only 12% of them move less, so this is one of the steadiest figures on the list.
No comparable numeric Round 1 and Round 2 pair is held here. Blank figures, AQA and marked new competitions are not treated as unchanged points.
Entry requirements
Points are only half of an offer. The subject requirements for this course are set by University College Cork (NUI) and are not published in the CAO’s points charts, so they are not on this page and nothing here should be read as saying you qualify. Check them on the institution’s own course page, and on cao.ie (opens in a new tab), before you put this on your form.
