I applied to NTU English (GPA 10th percentile: 3.34) with a GPA of 3.09 through NAA. Under achievements, I listed winning a martial arts competition, an international creative competition (advertising category), and also indicated that I am an active volunteer at my constituency's weekly meet-the-people session. Additionally, a lecturer and my MP (who I'm volunteering with) wrote my appraisals.

Can anyone comment on my odds of securing an interview at the very least?

Ah... miss the days when I was busy reading HWZ for admission and interview tips too.

2 cents worth... if anyone is interested in IT but not too technically inclined, SMU ISM is the way to go. Sure, awesome programmers are still likely to score way better but the job prospects upon graduation are really quite good.

NUS portal has changed from application processing to application processed. Does that mean my application outcome will be out very soon ?

Thanks but dunno whether the application years make a different. I finished ns le haha so will start this year but still no news from ntu/nus

No la that won't affect. Maybe the lack of A maths that's all. I'm sure still can one la.

Your GPA is pretty far. But I think you might have a small chance. NTU english seems to be the easiest HSS course to get into at the moment. But due to the small sizes of HSS cohorts, the IGP fluctuation can be pretty high. All it takes is just 10 more students with good grades to apply for English for the IGP to shoot up. So it really is up to luck.

Hi seniors, may I know what are the things that I have to do after I accept the offer? I am thinking if I should accept the offer early and get all the things done.

I'm probably not a senior, but I would say at least wait till you have the acceptance and scholarship offers/rejections from every uni you applied to, so that you can make a better informed choice.

Got my offer from NUS FASS today. However, they offered me acad year 2017-2018 when I ORD/disrupt next year.

My offer from SMU last year was for 2016-2017.

Did NUS made a mistake, or I can actually still disrupt and go for NUS in 2016? :s11:

Congrats! You should contact them to change the offer to 16-17 if you want to enrol next year.
