    Hi,

    Im just wondering if anyone knows about the eligibilty criteria for Fas. I have seen a course I would like to do (am currently unemployed) but it says on the course details Educational QualificationsEducated to Leaving Certificate STANDARD

    I dont have my leaving cert so is it pointless to even apply?

    I would advise you apply anyway. I just started a Fas course and was told it was full originally and would have to go elsewhere to do it. I applied telling them I had a preference for the first location. Then I got it, started this week, half the people who accepted didn't turn up and the tutor was telling us to tell people there are places available. So though you may not fulfil all the criteria if there are places left you might get one, nothing to lose anyway by applying.

    thanks for reply.
    im going to call them tomorrow to ask and see what they say, nothing ventured nothing gained!
    theres probably other criteria like having to be unemployed for a certain amount of time or whatever but sure will see how it goes.
    i just wasnt sure if they were strict on the leaving cert
