James O’Donoghue, who applied to study medicine, is one of about 1,500 Irish students to receive conditional offers in UK colleges

On making further inquiries to the University of Bristol, Mr O’Donoghue was told that applicants with delayed results will be examined on a case-by-case basis.

Mr O’Donoghue, 19, said he is now fearful of losing his place this year and has been told by Irish authorities that it is not possible to get his exam results any earlier than September 2nd. “Given this is not the first year with delayed results I think it unacceptable of the Department of Education not to have matters such as this ironed out.”
