GALWAY-MAYO INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY


Direct Applications


Direct application is used for Ordinary and Honours add-on degrees, transfers, modules in the ACCM mode and programmes for which work experience is an entry requirement.


Application


Applications for entry to add-on ordinary bachelor degree or honours bachelor degree programmes, or for transfer to the second or subsequent years of programmes, should be made directly to:


Admissions Office, Office of Academic Affairs, Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, Dublin Road, Galway.


Closing date: 1 May. Late applications will be considered for vacant places.


One of the unique features of most GMIT programmes is the ‘ladder system’ of progression, whereby students can progress from a higher certificate to a bachelor degree and/or an honours bachelor degree.


GMIT Progression Policy


Students who achieve a pass in the Higher Certificate (Level 6) or Ordinary Bachelor Degree (Level 7) examinations are eligible to progress to a related higher level award subject to the availability of places.


Recognition and Accreditation of Prior Learning


When you register for a programme in GMIT, we may be able to give you credit for any subjects you have already passed on another programme in another institute or university.


If you did not complete a programme in another institute, but you passed all or some of the subjects at first year, we can give you credit by exempting you from having to do the subjects you passed - for example, if you passed all the subjects in first year you may be allowed to progress to year two directly. This is called Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). For further information on RPL in GMIT visit www.myexperience.ie


After the results of the summer examination session are published, the following criteria will apply to applicants for places on all add-on programmes:


(i) GMIT applicants will be offered places, in decreasing order of performance, until the number of available places is exhausted. (Applicants for the honours degrees in Fine Art and Design in Textiles will be ranked on a combination of academic performance and interview /assessment)


(ii) If places remain unfilled, external candidates will be offered places, in decreasing order of performance, until the number of available places is exhausted.


(iii) After the results of the autumn examination session are published, any remaining unfilled places will be offered to those candidates who have obtained GMIT awards, in that session, in decreasing order of performance, until the number of available places is exhausted.


(iv) Subsequently, where places remain unfilled, they will be offered to all remaining qualified candidates, including late applicants, in decreasing order of performance.


Accumulation of Credits and Certification of Modules (ACCM)


ACCM is an innovative scheme whereby modules may be studied on a single module basis. Module certificates are awarded to successful participants and credits may be accumulated towards a full award. The Institute also offers some evening programmes through this scheme.


Most full-time programmes at GMIT are available on an ACCM basis.


Selection


Only applications received by the due date will be considered valid for the summer offer session. Late applications may be considered after the autumn re-sit examination session, subject to the availability of places.
