Dear students, parents & colleagues,


The Disability Access Route to Education (DARE )scheme is a third level alternative admissions scheme for school leavers whose disabilities have had a negative impact on their second level education. DARE offers reduced points places to school leavers who, as a result of having a disability, have experienced additional educational challenges in second level education.

A student applying to the DARE scheme needs to provide evidence of:

  • their disability/learning difficulty/significant ongoing illness and
  • how their condition has impacted negatively on their education.

Please email any DARE queries to dare@ucc.ie
