GY501 Medicine at University of Galway: CAO points 2026
GY501 is a level 8 honours degree at University of Galway in Galway, and the CAO files it under health. Its published figure is a combined score, which adds a portfolio, audition or test to the points and runs on a scale of its own, so there is no points figure to compare against a Leaving Certificate total.
Its published figure includes a portfolio, audition or test as well as points, so it runs on its own scale and cannot be compared against a points total.
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.

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.
Entry requirements
Points are only half of an offer. The subject requirements for this course are set by University of Galway 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.
