Ive applied in jan through the cao on a course( Music and Instrument Technology )However through discussions with friends and advice with a guy who does the course that this may not suit my abilities after all.

There are certain dates when you can use the change of mind option. All information on this is available on the CAO website. Changes can be made up until July 1st. Hope that helps. Good luck.

Just checked the CAO website myself and it is a bit confusing. There are restrictions on chnage of mind options - new courses, cetain nursing courses. Might be best to contact CAO direct and explain situation. Contact details are available on website.

Quote from CAO
Change of Mind - 5th May (12:00) to 1st July (17:15)
At the beginning of May, applicants will be able to register on-line a change of course choices, free of charge.
Change of Mind Forms may NOT be submitted by FAX.
If you change online, and have supplied an email address, an acknowledgement will also be sent to that email address.
There is no fee for using the Change of Mind facility.
Subject to the exceptions and restrictions mentioned below, you may change course choices (without fee) as often as you wish, up to 17:15 on the 1st July.
If you submit a Change of Mind, it cancels and supersedes all the previous course choices in any category in which changes are made. However, choices in the two categories ( Level 8 and Level 7/6 ) are considered to be completely separate from each other for this purpose. e.g. a change of Level 8 course choices will not affect Level 7/6 choices.
Restricted-Application Courses which are added for the first time via a Change of Mind are invalid choices and will not be considered.
You may NOT enter on a Change of Mind any Mature Applicant Course Codes for nursing, unless at least one such Code appeared on the original application and you have taken the test/interview in the current year.
In addition, individual admitting HEIs may impose restrictions on Change of Mind by certain categories of applicant. These are generally the same as for Late Applications. In particular, mature applicants, transfer applicants and those presenting entry qualifications other than recent EU school-leaving examinations should make enquiries from individual Admissions Offices before introducing new course choices after 1st February.
If you make a change of mind, you will receive a revised Statement of Course Choices to confirm that your new course choices have been entered into your computer record.
The revised statement will NOT be issued BEFORE 1st June.
If it does not arrive by 7th July, you MUST contact us immediately, and provide proof of the submission of the Change of Mind.
It is very important that your course choices should be absolutely correct. Therefore, if you are going to be absent at the time when the revised statement is due, you must arrange for someone to check that it arrives and, when it arrives, that the contents are correct and accurately reflect your wishes.
DO NOT WAIT UNTIL AUGUST TO NOTIFY US OF ERRORS OR OMISSIONS AS IT WILL BE TOO LATE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THEM AT THAT STAGE.

Restricted application courses cover certain courses which require interview or entrance exam - really depends on college criteria. Your best best bet is to contact the college admissions office and ask them
