2025 College Awareness Week



Posted: 28 November, 2025

Last week’s launch of 2025 College Awareness Week (CAW) hosted by Perrigo was a fantastic occasion and National Tertiary Office (NTO) is delighted to support and contribute to this important initiative. We enjoyed engaging with TY students of Westland Row in Dublin City Centre and connecting with colleagues from Trinity Access Programmes (TAP), the Institute of Guidance Counsellors (IGC), National Association of Principals and Deputy Principals (NAPD) and Higher Education Authority (HEA)

The CAW campaign promotes the full range of pathways available under the National Framework of Qualifications including tertiary bachelor’s degrees, helping students discover the route that suits them best. As NTO starts to accept applications for 2026 Tertiary bachelor’s degrees, CAW continues to deliver comprehensive support and the resources needed to support and strengthen tertiary pathways messaging nationwide.

Applications for the 2026 Tertiary bachelor’s degrees are now open, and more details are available on the NTO.ie website

📚Over 30 bachelor’s degree courses already available
💡 No points barrier
💰 No college fees for first 1–2 years in an ETB

‘There are no compromises, just a different route’
