The CAO process applications for undergraduate, and some postgraduate, courses on behalf of the Higher Education Institutions. Decisions on admissions are made by the HEIs who then instruct the CAO to make offers to successful candidates. Neither I nor my Department have a role in the operation of the CAO.

I understand that the current process for queries to the CAO is via the general enquiry function on the CAO website. If the Deputy sees the need for a further process, I would be happy to engage on the matter.
