necessary to obtain a third level place but have the academic ability and
motivation to study at third level.

Students must prepare for the Diploma

Holy Trinity College Law School is such an Institution.

Prospective students must:
• be 18 years of age on the first of September next.
• submit a detailed application form.

CONTENT OF COURSE
