The CAO Round 1 offers were made today (Wednesday, 27 August) and Mary Immaculate College (MIC) is looking forward to welcoming over a thousand new students to our campuses in Limerick and Thurles in the next few weeks. The whole process of receiving your CAO points, accepting your place and preparing to begin your third level journey may seem daunting, so we have prepared this handy guide to help you through the next steps.
CAO offers – what next?
CAO Round 1 offers were released on Wednesday afternoon. The offers made to applicants in Round 1 will be available online and applicants will also be alerted to offers via both email and text message. Those who are offered a place in Round 1 have until 3pm on Tuesday 2 September to accept their place.
If you’ve missed out on your preferred programme in Round 1, you may be offered a place in Round 2. These offers will be made at 2pm on 8 September and the deadline for accepting Round 2 offers is 3pm on 10 September.
If you are accepting an offer under either Round 1 or Round 2, you will get an enrolment letter by email from Enrolment@mic.ul.ie. You can also decide to defer your place at MIC. If you wish to do this, you need to email Admissions@mic.ul.ie at least two days before the ‘reply date’ on your CAO offer.

Orientation
Orientation is an important and exciting first step in your college experience. During orientation, you will be set up with all the things you will need your student email login details. You’ll also be given a tour of the campus to help familiarise yourself with the classrooms, lecture halls and student amenities. Remember, orientation is also a great chance to meet new people and make life-long friends! It can be daunting to strike up a conversation with a stranger but don’t forget that you are all going through the same new experience, so don’t be shy!
