CORU Appeal or CORU aptitude test?

CORU Appeal or CORU aptitude test?

What should I do if I have received negative CORU Decision Letter?

Let us elaborate on these two options:

1. CORU Appeal Process

Appealing a decision made by CORU can be a complex and time-consuming procedure. If you have recently received a rejection letter from CORU's Registration Department, your first step should be a thorough analysis of the reasons behind the denial. In cases where CORU assessors have identified shortcomings in your clinical experience, it becomes essential to gain the necessary experience as outlined in the CORU Decision Letter. Sometimes, the rejection letter may highlight non-compliance with various proficiency standards. At this point, it's crucial to familiarize yourself with these standards and evaluate whether you have been adhering to them in your clinical practice. If not, completing relevant courses and practical sessions can be beneficial in understanding and effectively implementing these standards. When faced with a CORU Registrar's refusal, you have two options:


  1. Appealing the CORU Decision: This option should only be pursued if you have substantial grounds to contest CORU's verdict. Monroe Medical and our legal team can provide assistance throughout the appeals process.

  2. Initiating a Fresh CORU Registration Application: If your rejection is primarily due to a lack of experience, it may be more appropriate to address these clinical deficiencies and submit a new CORU application.


It's important to note that candidates who have relevant experience but fail to complete the CORU REGISTRATION FORMS accurately, including standards and case studies, may receive negative decision letters from CORU assessors. Therefore, it is crucial to complete the CORU registration forms as comprehensively as possible, providing as many details as you can. If you believe that the CORU Decision is unjust, filing an appeal is the recommended course of action. However, if the decision is based on a lack of clinical experience, it is advisable to address these shortcomings and submit a fresh CORU application. Monroe Medical offers support to candidates in the following ways:


  • Assisting with the appeal process.

  • Guiding you through the submission of a new application.


Please be aware that if you intend to appeal a Registration Board's decision to reject your registration or restoration application, you must do so within 30 days of receiving the decision.




2. CORU Aptitude Test and Test of Competence

Understanding the CORU Aptitude Test (CORU Test of Competence) The CORU Aptitude Test is specifically designed to assess an applicant's proficiency in professional knowledge and their comprehension of the specific regulations governing their profession in Ireland.

  1. Fresh CORU Application: Candidates can choose to submit a new CORU application form.

  2. Appeal: If candidates find the Aptitude Test Examination overly stressful, they have the option to appeal. Please reach out to us for further details on this process.


To summarise, if you feel you know the standards of proficiency used in Ireland and you know the system used in Ireland, you can certainly make an attempt for CORU Aptitude Test.


If you, however, feel that there are grounds for an appeal, you should use this option and then move to the CORU Aptitude Test.
