A place must be available on the programme to which the transfer is sought,
Applicants must have achieved the minimum entry requirements and have attained at least the minimum of the cut off points for the programme which they wish to transfer onto,
Applications for transfer during the CAO season will normally only be permitted for the programmes listed on CAO AvailablePlaces, however, if wait lists are exhausted, a transfer can be considered.
