LAST UPDATE | 8 Sep 2022
LEAVING CERT 2022 students are finding out today what third-level offers will come from the grades and subsequent ‘points’ they received for this year’s exams.
The Round One offers have now been released, and you can check them all on The Journal at the button below.
It’s a huge day for thousands of households – from students waiting to see if they got their first preference course, to parents wondering whether they need to start a hunt for accommodation.
In total, there were 57,296 CAO applicants, the Central Applications Office said.
Round One offers must be accepted by 3pm on Wednesday, 14 September.
Round Two offers will then be released at 10am on 19 September – and we’ll have all the points right here on The Journal later that afternoon.

“Infected prisoners “- Carrie Lam thinks they are infected with the democracy virus
An outbreak = 7 prisoners tested positive. Is this for real? Or have I misunderstood?
@Brendan Harlowe: the is what a zero covid policy looks like .madness
@Brendan Harlowe: Yes just 7 prisoners, but 4,285 people tested positive in past 24 hours, and they all will be housed in government isolation centres.
@Alan Byrne: So then that means there are 4,285 prisoners
According to a news outlet earlier today, Hong Kong is taking even non-symptomatic cases into hospital.
Then treating patients outside where cameras and media can see them.
Looks like Hong King’s pro-Beijing govt is just using covid restrictions to really just clamp down on the freedoms of its population if you ask me.
These prisoners are lucky they haven’t been chosen for ” organ donation “. Id recommend people to watch ” Human Harvest ” an eye opener if anybody still needs one
Good
have your say
