<h3>Two Killarney students are celebrating after being awarded scholarships at Mary Immaculate College (MIC).</h3>
Claire Stagg received an Undergraduate Entrance Scholarship to the Bachelor of Education (Primary Teaching) programme at MIC. The scholarship, valued at &euro;2,000, was awarded on the basis of high-level CAO points obtained in the Leaving Certificate Examination. Claire, who attended St Brigid&rsquo;s Presentation Secondary School in town, received the maximum 625 points in her LC exams.
 Darragh Doolan from Woodlawn, received an Undergraduate Entrance Scholarship to the BA in Education, Mathematics and Gaeilge programme at MIC Thurles.
 His scholarship is also valued at &euro;2,000, and was also awarded on the basis of high-level CAO points in the Leaving Certificate Exam. Darragh, who attended St Brendan&rsquo;s College, Killarney, received the maximum 625 points in his LC exams.
 &#8220;We were very impressed with the calibre of candidates this year and we saw 15 students exceeding 600 points, 11 of whom achieved the maximum 625 points. I want to wish the students the very best as they continue their studies with MIC,&#8221; MIC&rsquo;s Student Recruitment Officer, Dr Patrick Cosgrove, said. &#8220;Incoming students are also eligible to apply for our popular Elite Sports Scholarships and the CAO Concession Scheme. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s not possible to hold on-campus Open Days at present due to COVID-19 but those who are considering studying at MIC can find out everything you need to know about our 13 undergraduate programmes, including our newly launched Bachelor of Science in Psychology, at www.mic.ie/CAO.&rdquo;
