Entry requirements

To be eligible for the programme you must:

  • Hold a bachelor degree. If you don’t hold a bachelor degree, please see the recognition of prior learning pathway outlined below.
  • Be working in the healthcare industry. Recognition of prior learning (RPL) If you do not meet the minimum academic requirements above, you may still be eligible to apply through recognition of prior learning (RPL). RPL is the assessment of knowledge, skills and competence previously acquired. Learning occurs in many contexts including work, involvement in social and community activities, or learning through life experience generally. RPL does not give credit for experience as such – rather, it considers the learning that was acquired as a result of the experience. RPL may be used to gain:
  • Admission to courses/programmes where a person may not have obtained the standard entry requirements.
  • Exemptions from course modules which duplicate the learning outcomes an individual has already demonstrably acquired through prior learning. English language requirement exceptions You must meet the English language requirements (unless exempt): IELTS score of 6.5, Duolingo 105-110, or equivalent score on another standardised test. Please see below for list of exemptions. Exemptions may apply for:
  • If you have completed your school or undergraduate studies (three or more years) through English in a country where English is the majority native language.
  • If you have completed your school or undergraduate studies (three or more years) in an English speaking institution in a country where English is not the majority native language and where an IELTS score of 5 or more was a requirement for admissions to the programme.
  • If you have been working in a country (three years or more) where English is the majority native language or for an employer where English language is the official language.
  • Graduates of an RCSI Undergraduate, Masters or Professional Diploma programme in Dublin and Bahrain. Please note: Certified proof must be uploaded as part of your application.
