The higher education institutions have delegated to the CAO the task of processing applications to their undergraduate courses. However, the participating institutions retain the function of making decisions on admissions. Neither my Department nor the Higher Education Authority has any role in relation to the operation of the CAO or the admissions policies of third level institutions.
