    I'm trying to find out is there any way you can get in to college with a not so good leaving cert. I done and passed in ordinary subjects and 2 foundation subjects (Irish & maths). I don't qualify as a mature student as I am 21. Would appreciate any help or advice thanks :)

    Have you completed or looked into any plc/fetac/fás courses that you're intersted in? Completing one of these courses and applying as a mature student would be your best bet. Make sure to do the research behind your course and what options it will open up for you. I got caught thinking I could get into other courses with a 2 year course I completed as it turns out it didn't corospond module wise with the other course I wanted to do. What areas would you be interested in?
