Application Process and Outcome
EARLY ADMISSIONS EXERCISE (EAE)
Selection Process & Criteria
The polytechnics will call up shortlisted applicants for further assessment, such as interviews and / or aptitude tests from 1 Jul 2024 to 27 Aug 2024.
Selection Process
EAE(ITE) focuses on students who have strong aptitude and interest in a field related to the diploma course they are applying for.
Polytechnics will have the discretion to determine their modes of assessment, such as portfolios, interviews and aptitude tests, where relevant and appropriate. Polytechnics may also consider participation in activities such as work attachments and sustained involvement in projects that are related to the course students are applying for, as well as relevant co-curricular activities.
Admissions Criteria
- While interest and aptitude in a field of study is important, having the requisite academic foundation helps to ensure you will be able to cope with the rigour of a polytechnic education and benefit from it. It is for this reason that ITE students seeking admission to the polytechnics are required to graduate from ITE and meet the minimum GPA requirement for their respective diploma courses. The minimum GPA requirements for each polytechnic course are:
- Final net GPA 3.5 for Nitec holders (including CCA bonus points); and
- Final net GPA 2.0 for Higher Nitec holders (including CCA bonus points).
