Irish Requirement

greydiamond

A qualifying grade in two languages, one of which must be English or Irish, as follows:

English: a grade not lower that D3 at Ordinary Level,

Irish : a grade not lower than C3 at Foundation Level or D3 at another level,

Other language : a grade not lower than D3 at Ordinary Level


As regards the Irish requirement, if you have failed Irish at leaving cert, but have still passed English and another language, are you still elligable to apply?

A friend of mine is thinking of applying, but has failed Irish. Someone told him a few years ago you had to have Irish. Has that changed?? From whats on the website, it appears you dont need it. Does anyone know for sure?

You DONT need to have passed irish, but you do need to have passed english & another language. However if you get into templemore you will still have to study irish there.
