CAO Courses That Only Require 150 Points Or Below
While level 8 courses might mean acquiring 350 and above points, level six and seven courses are ideal entry routes for anyone who did not receive the points they'd hoped for during their Leaving Cert. Once you finish a level six or seven course, your Leaving Cert points are no longer valid and your entry into a third level university is dependant on the course your complete.
