Course and Entry Requirements For Direct Entry Scheme to Polytechnic Programme (DPP) Graduates

Transcription

1 and Entry Requirements To be guaranteed a place in one of the polytechnic courses offered under the Direct Entry Scheme to Polytechnic Programme (DPP), you must achieve, in your Higher Nitec course under the DPP, the qualifying Grade Point Average (GPA) or the minimum RAW GPA (excluding CCA bonus points) for the different course durations (in Years) as shown in Table 1 below. For Higher Nitec DPP courses in Applied Sciences, Engineering and Info-Communications Technology, in addition to the minimum qualifying GPAs, students are required to offer and pass a Math elective at ITE to be eligible for progression into polytechnic Diploma courses under the DPP. N(A) students with at least Grade C6 in GCE O Level Mathematics will be exempted from this requirement. You may also consider applying for polytechnic courses other than those offered under the DPP, provided you achieve, in your Higher Nitec course, the minimum NET Grade Point Average (GPA) (including CCA bonus points) for the different polytechnic course durations as shown in Table 2 below. Some polytechnic courses also have additional prerequisites, in addition to the course entry requirements. You must fulfil the additional prerequisites to be considered for the relevant courses. Please refer to the s, if any, for the additional prerequisites. The JPAE in the table(s) below shows the GPA band in which the average (for the last 3 consecutive years) NET GPA of the lowest ranked students who was posted to these courses falls in. These bands are meant as a reference for applicants applying to these courses, and do not constitute the admission GPA for subsequent admission exercises. If a polytechnic course is newly offered under JPAE or a polytechnic course has no ITE intake for the last 3 consecutive years, the JPAE is denoted as -. Admission into the courses of your choice is based on merit and subject to the availability of vacancies.
