I’m currently an undergrad at NTU under HSS but i’m doing a course which i have 0 interest in. I am currently in my second semester. I’m thinking of dropping out of NTU and taking part in the 2017/18 intake. My rp is 68.75, will doing the SAT help me in my application to SMU again? (after i’ve failed last year)

If my SMU application is not successful, should i stay in a local uni (NTU) doing something i’m not interested in or go to SIM global?

Go sim global and do what?

Banking and finance stuff ah?

If you want to go into banking, your degree and where it comes from is more important

do note that if you withdraw and join SIM, you still have to pay the school fees for NTU sem1 and 2 (which is a lot without tuition grants)

Guys! You are right. SMU seems to emphasize / promote applications for their scholarships than about admission. Having bundled the scholarship with admission as a package, they appear to put 'the carriage before the horse'. Strange but will they goof (accidently) one day by awarding their scholarship but failed to follow-up with an admission offer. (ha Ha). However, I am sure they do have an administrative process in place to prevent this joke.

But then there's Murphy's Law. Have a good day to each and everyone, a Buddha to be.

Anyone received offer letter from SMU-IS under EASE?

I assume EASE stands for something like early admission. Don't mean to discourage you but if I'm not wrong, there's a ceremony for those that have been accepted by EASE tomorrow. I have some friends whom have already been accepted and are heading their way there tomorrow, though they are from business. So if you haven't received the letter it probably means that you weren't accepted (once again don't take my word for it!!)

EASE = Early Admission Scholarship Exercise.

Accountancy applicants are getting offers / attention.

Others: coming soon.

Normal, cause handled by two different office/department

They will tell you the scholarship is contingent on you actually getting the admission offer

But it’s not an issue la.. scholarship is far more selective. If can get then admission sure no problem

Hi can I know that if I have received EASE acceptance letter, will they still be concerned about the Sem 6 GPA? If I screw up by 6 Sem GPA, will they reject me for admission?

Actually universities were clear that their offer is subject to your graduating with grades acceptable for admission. So 6th Semester result must not tank. They call it a provisional offer.
