The 3 ECG Questions
What’s PFP? • A diploma-specific foundation programme conducted over two academic semesters • Practice-oriented curriculum • Given provisional places in diploma programmes, subject to them passing all modules in the one-year PFP • Offered by 5 Polys • About 1,200 PFP places • Spanning 80% of diploma course offerings
Eligibility • Obtain an ELMAB3 aggregate not exceeding 11 points prior to deducting CCA bonus points; and • Meet the subject-specific requirements of the courses they are applying for. • Eligibility does not guarantee placement in a PFP course.
Eligibility • More information on eligibility requirements for the PFP can be found at the following URL: https://pfp.polytechnic.edu.sg/PFP/pfp_eligib ility.html.

Direct-Entry-Scheme to Polytechnic Program (DPP)
What is DPP?
• A two-year Higher Nitec course at ITE. DPP
students who successfully complete their
Higher Nitec courses and
• attain the required minimum qualifying Higher
Nitec Grade Point Average (GPA) scores are
guaranteed a place in one of the
polytechnic diploma courses that are
mapped to their Higher Nitec course.
15Why consider DPP?
• Module-based GPA grading system
– Tailored for students who prefer varied learning
modes across the academic year.
– Bite-sized assessments contribute to final GPA
grade, as compared to one seating of National
examinations.
– Industry-specific so you can pursue your
passions immediately.Direct-Entry-Scheme to Polytechnic Program (DPP)
Who can apply for DPP?
• Obtained an ELMAB3 aggregate of 19
points or better (excluding CCA bonus
points); and
• Met the course-specific requirements

EAE (ITE) for Sec 4NA Students
The Early Admission Exercise (EAE) is an
aptitude and interest-based exercise that
allows your child to apply and receive
conditional offers from ITEs prior to receiving
the final N-level results, i.e. before the JIE
exercise with everyone else.
20It’s for those who have aptitudes and
1 interests in specific fields of study
• Focus on course-specific aptitudes and interests
• But, non-course-specific achievements, e.g. sports,
performing arts, leadership, are also considered
2 You’ll be assessed through different
modes
• E.g. interviews, aptitude tests, showcasing your
portfolio, depending on the course you apply for
3 All this will take place before your N-
Level exams
• If your application is successful, ITE will give
you a conditional offer before you take the N-
Level exams
21You’ll still have to meet the minimum
4 entry requirements
• Most Nitec courses have subject-specific minimum entry
requirements
(…or your offer will be
revoked)
But you won’t have to compete for
5 admission to ITE strictly on the basis of
how well you do academically compared to
everyone else
