SAT 1190+

2026/27 entry

Maynooth's official 'The Americas' international undergraduate entry-requirements page lists a real banded SAT/ACT table for US High School Diploma applicants (four bands: SAT 1090/ACT 21 up to SAT 1350/ACT 29, each with a matching GPA floor) with programmes mapped to bands in the page's own table. BSc Economics and BSc Computer Science both sit in the second band: SAT 1190 or ACT 24, GPA 3.0/4.0 -- confirmed by reading the table's actual row-by-column structure directly, after an initial summary had incorrectly reported the top band (SAT 1350/ACT 29) for this course; that wrong figure was caught and discarded before finalizing this entry. Ireland has no CAO-points equivalent published here since, like every other Irish university, the real US-applicant pathway is this direct-entry SAT/ACT route, not CAO points. Tuition couldn't be confirmed to a specific line item in Maynooth's official 2026/27 International Undergraduate Fees PDF (the PDF's per-course table wasn't fully readable) -- left unset rather than guessed from the BA/BSc general-rate pattern (€16,500 vs €18,000) visible elsewhere on the same page.
