ITE to Poly to Local Uni

ITE grads entering local U

Hi guys, recently I've been offered a place in SMU studying business mgt. After graduating from SMU, I would be by then 29 yrs old. My question is - is it worth to pursue a local Uni or is it better to enter work force earlier to gain experience by going into private uni?

It is always good to have a local uni deg as it will certainly give u brighter prospects in the near future.

If your planning to work in Singapore a local uni degree would be prefered by majority of the both the public and private sector in Singapore. If your planning to work overseas it will be different but they still emphasize on having a degree or higher qualification regardless of it being a local or private uni.
