Maynooth University Entrance Scholarships 2023

Entrance Scholarships were awarded in September 2023 to over seventy new MU students pursuing twenty-four degree courses including the Maynooth Bachelor of Arts, Psychology, Primary Education and more. The breakdown of degrees chosen by our scholars in 2023 is listed on the scholarships webpage along with the CAO Round 1 points for these courses.

The €1,000 Entrance Scholarship is automatically awarded to incoming first year students, via the CAO, who have obtained 575 points or more in the Leaving Certificate (from six subjects in one sitting - the sitting of the Leaving Certificate doesn't have to be in the actual year of entry to the University). For students presenting GCE A Levels the awards are based on achieving points from three/four subjects in GCE A levels.

Two Bachelor of Electronic Engineering students were awarded the new W.A Barrett Scholarship in Engineering.
