CAO Hub

CAO 2026

Our CAO 1st round offers were issued on 26th August 2026.  Here is a list of the CAO Points for 2026.

If you receive an offer from us, the first step is to log into your CAO account and follow the instructions to accept your place. Accept your offer by the deadline, even if you are hoping to receive another offer in a later CAO round. Accepting your current offer will not prevent you from receiving a higher-preference offer in a subsequent round. Once you accept your offer, we will send you an email within 24 hours with details of what steps to take to start your studies. 

We have compiled a comprehensive list of frequently asked questions to provide helpful guidance to everyone who applied through the CAO in 2026. View the FAQs
