Magee university-How many Leaving cert points is this?

Question

http://prospectus.ulster.ac.uk/course/?id=4932

It doesn't give me any details on the leaving cert points, it says 240 LC tariff points does that mean it's only 240 leaving cert points?

Answer 1

No, it doesn't mean you need 240 leaving cert points because Magee University is in Northern Ireland it is part of the UK system - UCAS is the British equivalent of the CAO/CAS in the Republic.  This is a link to how they work out the points:

And where it says this on the prospectus:

"Irish Leaving Certificate

240 UCAS Tariff Points to include BBCCC"

They expect you to get 2 Bs & 3 Cs in your Leaving Cert subjects, which would make up the minimum number of points they would expect you to get.
