These are the applicants for CK 101 Arts in UCC. The examination results have not yet been released, so these applicants are in no particular order.

Applicants are placed in a queue for each course they applied for, their position in the queue is determined by their points. The applicant with the highest points is placed at the top of the queue. The points achieved by the applicant in red determines her position in the queue for each course she applied to.
How places are allocated • The admissions officers of the Higher Education Institutions tell CAO how many places are to be offered on each course. • CAO then makes offers to the required number of applicants on each course starting with the applicant with the highest points and working down until enough places have been offered.
The applicants marked in green have enough points to be offered places. The applicant marked in red has enough points for her second preference.
• Should some applicants decline to accept their offers these places become available in the next round of offers. They will be offered to the next applicants on the order of merit list. • This process continues until all the places on the course are filled or until all the eligible applicants on the order of merit list have been offered places. • Applicants can only be offered courses higher up on their CAO Course List
The applicant in red is offered her second preference, the highest preference course that she has enough points for, and she will now disappear from the queue in all her lower choices. Placing DN 201 as her second preference meant that she would prefer to receive an offer on DN 201 than on any other course except CK 101 - which is her first preference.
Having been offered her second preference she must now decide to accept it or to do nothing. If she does not accept the offer the place will be offered to another applicant in the next round of offers. Regardless of whether she accepts or not she will still be considered for an offer on her first preference if a place becomes available. In the second round, one more offer was made on CK 101 and our applicant is now at the top of the queue.
In the third round of offers two more offers are made on CK 101 and our applicant, who was at the top of the queue, now receives an offer. She may do nothing and remain in DN 201 or she may accept the offer and begin in CK 101.
GENUINE ORDER Students do not need to guess what the points are going to be for the courses they are interested in. Simply list courses in Genuine Order of Preference from the highest preference 1, to the lowest preference 10. If students are entitled to an offer, they will be offered the highest preference that you are entitled to.
RESTRICTIONS Applications must be made by February 1 st. Consult CAO Handbook for full details.
