It’s for those who have aptitudes and interests
1 in specific fields of study
• Focus on course-specific aptitudes and interests
• But, non-course-specific achievements, e.g. sports,
leadership, also considered
Applicants be assessed through different
2 modes
• E.g. interviews, aptitude tests, showcasing your portfolio,
depending on the course they apply for
3 All this will take place before N Level exams
(June – Aug)
• If application is successful, the ITE will give
applicant a conditional offer before the N-Level
exams
33For example, if a student applies for
Business Services at College Central…
If student has been selected, his place will be confirmed when his N level
results meet the Minimum Entry Requirements.
He need not score an aggregate point of ‘8’.Remind Your Child
Not to choose a subject combination
because
• it sounds prestigious
– What’s the good of doing a subject which your child
dreads it daily?
• many perceive it will lead to good pay
– What might pay well today might not when you
graduate in the future.
– Money is not everything; satisfaction comes from
purpose and passion.
• of a friend/teacher/parent/guardian
– Unless your child enjoys the subject too!
