Applicants generally need a Second Class Honours Grade 1 (H2.1) in a business‑related bachelor’s degree (NFQ Level 8 or equivalent). If you hold a 2.2 honours degree, you may still be considered, depending on seat availability and strong performance in business‑related modules. Students with non‑business degrees can apply if they've completed sufficient quantitative or business‑related modules. DCU also accepts Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) — if you lack the standard academic requirements but have relevant professional qualifications plus at least three years’ work experience, you may be considered. RPL applicants should include a cover letter with their application.
