    I'm unsure what you are asking. The college will let you know what they require. However usually colleges may look at past qualifications and if a mature student, life experiences. Maybe talk with the college again and get a clear picture as what is needed for whatever you intend to do..

    A level 6 is higher than a level 5. The college is seeking a minimum of a Full FETAC Level 5 Award, so if you have a full FETAC Level 6 Award in the same field, that will suffice, or even be better depending on the colleges entrance criteria.

    Be careful in assuming that a level 6 is acceptable - the college may seek cerain modules at Level 5 so check with the admissions team in the college you wish to progress to.
