In DBS, we currently offer 12 programmes across the Schools of Arts and Law which will not require that a student pass maths. The content of each programme has been analysed and due to the fact that each programme contains little or no mathematical content, the Leaving Certificate maths requirement is not in place.

(Applicants are still required to present 2HC3's and 4OD3's in other subjects for level 8's or 5OD3's in other subjects for level 6/7 awards). 

But remember, it is vital to ensure that when you are applying for a programme, you have enough interest in the area and you should not be applying for a course that you have no interest in just in case you fail maths but for applicants who have an interest in Law, Journalism, Media Studies or Arts degrees, it is important to be aware that your maths grade may not impact your application to college. And don't forget to check the entry requirements for all programmes that you are applying to!
