The first of this years CAO offers will be made later this afternoon.

They'll be available from 2 o'clock, with the deadline for students to accept their college offer set at 3 o'clock next Wednesday afternoon.

Grade inflation in the Leaving Cert is expected to impact the process again this year.

Education Editor with the Irish Times, Carl O'Brien says points requirements are likely to remain quite high across the board, but reductions can also be expected in some areas:

"Especially health related courses like nursing, maybe even medicine. And that's for two reasons. One is the fact that there has been a slight fall off in demand in those types of areas. And also, the Government has created several 100 new places, which will certainly boost the supply and affect the demand."
