Thanks for treating our staff with respect
ACER staff aim to treat everyone with courtesy, respect and integrity and to be sensitive to the diverse needs of all our stakeholders. In turn, we expect everyone contacting ACER to offer our staff the same consideration – as workers and as human beings.
Close this messageWe will do our best to help you in every case, but our staff will not tolerate any rude or aggressive behaviour, including:
If any caller to ACER engages in such behaviour, staff will warn them clearly that the conversation may be terminated. If the caller continues that behaviour regardless, the call may be transferred to a recorded message indicating they have breached ACER’s protocols.
ACER will respond firmly to any similar emails or social media messages, and we will notify police if anyone visiting ACER offices displays the same behaviour.
Application Process
The process of applying for admission to the graduate-entry programs is separate from the process of registering to sit GAMSAT.
The CAO (Central Applications Office - www.cao.ie) processes applications for admission to graduate-entry medicine and veterinary medicine in Ireland for the following institutions
RCSI University of Medicine & Health Sciences | RC101 | Medicine |
University College Cork | CK791 | Medicine |
University College Dublin | DN401 | Medicine |
University College Dublin | DN301 | Veterinary Medicine |
University of Limerick | LM101 | Medicine |
Applicants should consult the CAO website (www.cao.ie) and/or the institutions’ websites for the relevant eligibility criteria for admissions. If you have any questions in regard to your eligibility, please contact the Admissions Office of one of the institutions listed above well in advance of the application closing date.
If you indicated that you are an applicant to a program in Ireland, the Central Application Office (CAO) will be provided with your GAMSAT results and will pass these onto the institutions to which you have applied.
Test takers are responsible for determining their eligibility to apply for admission to the graduate- entry programs.
In order for your results to be forwarded to the CAO, you must indicate on any of your current registrations (September 2022, March 2023, September 2023, and March 2024) that you are an applicant to an Irish program. You must complete this step by 28 April 2024 by logging into your account and ensuring that ‘Ireland’ has been ticked in the course application section. Your results with your best Overall Score will then be forwarded to the CAO for inclusion in your application.
You must also provide your CAO application number to the GAMSAT Office when you register for the test. If you do not have a CAO application number at the time of registering for GAMSAT, you should add it to your GAMSAT online account by 28 April 2024.
If you do not provide your CAO application number, or if you give an incorrect number, this may affect the delivery of your GAMSAT results to the CAO and the institutions.
