    I'm feeling pretty depressed now tbh, I got the results and it was my only choice on the list, I only had one down, I thought I had it. Ugh :(

    you mean they told you you got nothing??

    i rang CAO who were epically unhelpful.

    they took my CAO number and said "were you hoping to get through on your FETAC results?" "nope, no offers there for you anyway, you know theres another round in a few weeks"

    is that just a fob off because results are still filtering through.

    Okay. CAO just emailed me back, I gave them my cao number and told them it was for DIT. They replied this:

    ''We were not authorised by the Institution to issue
    you an offer.
    I can only suggest that you contact the Admissions
    Office of the Institution concerned to enquire as
    to the situation.''


    WHAT??????

  • Registered Users Posts: 155 ✭✭DonnaMarieAva


    That's what I was told as well! So are we supposed to call up and ask if we have an offer?

    Hey does anyone know if Round zero is specifically for level 5/6/Fetac etc applicants or do people who just have their leaving cert get offers today too?


  • Registered Users Posts: 155 ✭✭DonnaMarieAva


    Round 0 is for Fetac, International and applicants with no exam results this year. It's not for LC students. The 20th August is. :)

    Okay, I applied for Film and Broadcasting in DIT, I was speaking to the admin office there now and they said that there was such a huge demand for the course and because so many people had the results, it went to random selection.
    She said that I can wait until the next round and I may get something then.


  • Registered Users Posts: 401 ✭✭BrianG23


    Oh really? I did my LC 2 years ago I wonder where I went wrong, i'm sure I have the results for the course


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33 imjayr


    Quick question,

    If I accept my Level 8 offer now which was my 9th choice, can i still get offers on the next round of offers?

    Or if i accepted an offer I wont get any more offers?

    I heard people still getting offers even though they have already accepted an offer?

    can anyone answer this pls :D!


  • Registered Users Posts: 155 ✭✭DonnaMarieAva


    At least you're not fully ruled out and you still have a chance :)

    If you get an offer and accept, that's it, you take what you accepted.

    I was a FETAC mature student last year.

    I have been offered and accepted my top choice which is PPES at Trinity College. :D

    Well chuffed with that.

    Good luck to everyone else.

    On our course last year we were told that if you accept a lower offer then you can still be offered a higher offer.

    Im not sure if you would receive a higher offer from the same university or not.

    However, if you accept a higher offer then you will not be offered anything lower.

    Some people on my course have accepted numerous offers but are still holding out for offers higher up their list of choices.

    You would be best off calling the CAO to be sure.

    Regards

    So confused..rang DIT up and they said people who have their Leaving cert already still have to wait until 20th? Is anyone else in my boat or does everyone here have a Fetac or higher education etc?
