Almost 56,000 students are due to receive their Leaving Cert results tomorrow morning.
A helpline has been set up ahead of the results tomorrow, the number is 1800 265 165.
The Central Applications Office has stated that 79,000 students applied for undergraduate courses this year, an increase of 300 over last year.
President of the Union of Students in Ireland Kevin Donoghue has said that it’s important to keep the Leaving Cert results in context.
“The important thing is to keep in mind that while it will be an exciting morning for some people, there are options available there if things don’t work out your way.
“It is important to remember, no matter how good or bad it is tomorrow, the Leaving Cert isn’t a measure of who you are as a person or how capable you are as an individual.
“It’s a big day for a lot of people, but it is one day and there are options available and there is support available there if you need them tomorrow morning or indeed the week ahead.”
