The following pages are intended to provide guidance and assistance with the drafting, amendment and revision of admission and enrolment regulations.

The drafting, amendment or revision of an admissions or enrolment regulation follows an annual process plan, which sets out the relevant timeline as well as the bodies involved and the ‘stages’ to be completed.

The current process plan is sent to the Schools by the Department for Study Affairs in the summer; the actual process begins in November, so that proposed amendments and revisions to the admission and enrolment regulations can come into force in time for the application procedure for the winter semester of the following year.

The process plan for amendments to the regulations governing the application procedure for the winter semester 2027/28 can be viewed here .
