Applicants over 21 years of age on the calendar year of entry can apply for any undergraduate programme. Those under 21 must have a Leaving Certificate with certain grades achieved (further details available from undergrad@ipa.ie). Module Exemptions Students with recognized and specifically relevant prior qualifications may apply for an exemption for a particular module or from an entire stage. Exemptions are not awarded for the award (final) stage of a programme. An application form for exemptions can be obtained from undergrad@ipa.ie. It must be returned, along with transcripts of results from each year of previous studies, no later than October. Subject Accumulation Students may enrol for just one or more modules each year until they complete the programme. This is called subject accumulation mode.
