Students awaiting a further CAO offer will be able to check for Round 4 offers from 10am on Tuesday, September 22, 2026. Applicants will also receive an offer notification by email and SMS text from the Central Applications Office (CAO).
Applicants should log in to their CAO account from 10am to check whether they have received an offer. Students who receive an offer should carefully check the course details and the deadline for accepting their place.
Students who receive a new offer after previously accepting a place should review the new course before deciding whether to accept it. CAO applicants can accept a new offer if they wish to take up the new place, while those who do not want the new offer can take no action.
Students who do not receive an offer in Round 4 should continue to check the CAO timetable for further updates. The Available Places facility may also provide options for applicants looking for courses that still have vacancies.
With another round of offers being released, students should check their CAO account, email and text messages and make sure they are aware of any relevant acceptance deadline.
