Those applying after the closing date are not given an interview, but will be placed on a waiting list in order of receipt of the application
Following interview, the offer of a place at Notre Dame is made on the basis of the following information:
(i) The completed application form
(ii) The reference from the applicant’s previous school / institution
(iii) The report of the interviewer as expressed on the Interview Sheet
And in addition, for Category 4b
(iv) If the application is received after the deadline:

ii) the number of places available on the courses provisionally applied for.
Every effort will be made to meet individual needs, but, although a place at Notre Dame is offered, there is no guarantee that a course in a subject will run if demand is small or a course cannot be staffed. Nor can a place be guaranteed on an oversubscribed course. Similarly, no guarantee can be made that all combinations of subjects will be possible.
