QQI FET Applicants

We have recently revised our QQI Minimum Entry Requirements (MERs). They have been simplified and are designed to broaden access by increasing the number of QQI pathways available to our courses.  

QQI Entry Requirements differ for each of our courses, so please refer to the relevant course page for specific details on QQI Entry Requirements for that course. QQI Entry Requirements can also be viewed on the CAO website.

Students researching QQI/FET progression routes may also find Qualifax useful. The website includes a search function that allows users to enter a module code to identify PLC/QQI courses that contain the modules needed for progression into TU Dublin courses.

The updated framework is outlined in detail in the following PDF document: QQI Minimum Entry Requirements
