The points requirements for college courses are up on last year because of grade inflation in this year's calculated Leaving Cert.
This year's college offers will go live at two o'clock today.
78,000 have applied to the Central Applications Office (CAO) for a college place this year, around 60% of whom are students who received calculated grades as part of the 2020 Leaving Certificate process.
Around 3,600 extra college places have been added this year, to ease some of the pressure for high-demand courses.
