Amharc ar fhreagraThe Disability Access Route to Education (DARE) offers places at reduced points to school leavers with disabilities. Admissions under the DARE scheme is regulated by the institutions themselves and not by my Department. Each higher institution determines its own admission policy in relation to DARE, the number of places they reserve for DARE and the allocation of those places.
Any requests for more detailed information about DARE and this particular application should be directed to the Irish Universities Association (IUA) (www.iua.ie) who coordinate the DARE scheme for participating institutions.
