Entry requirements for Irish students

• The institution assesses the Irish Leaving Certificate individually and does not publish a fixed Irish requirement. Contact admissions to confirm.
• Maths is mandatory: you need a pass in Mathematics on your final results. If your maths is judged insufficient you can sit the OMPT-A maths test (minimum 55%, extra cost).
• All applicants must complete the online MPT Survey (Multicultural Personality Test) within 10 working days of applying. English: IELTS 6.0 overall with no sub-score below 5.5 (or equivalent); Hanze’s exemption list includes English-taught diplomas from Ireland, so confirm with admissions.
