Will it be easier to enter the overseas degrees? Why is that so?
Their overseas degrees mostly requires the applicant to have a related diploma.. therefore lesser ppl applying..

For their SIT own degree, you don't need to have a related diploma.. therefore any Tom dick and Harry who has a diploma AND NOT FORGETTING that you will also face competitions from JC students who could not make it into nus Ntu smu like us...

Therefore I won't say overseas degree is easier, but just that you will face significantly lesser competitions..

Oooh, I thought it'd be harder because more people will want to get overseas accredited degrees as compared to SIT now because it's not that popular yet

Not actually...if the overseas-accredited courses were actually open to anyone with non-related diplomas or even JC students.. I can guarantee that applicants will face more competitions for these overseas courses compared to SIT's own course..

Who wouldn't want to get a both internationally and locally regconised degree with honours in 2 years..

I applied for physiotherapy too! I really gave a lot of thoughts for occupational therapy, but it seems like the prospects salaries arent that high..

Yeah same here. I kept changing my first choice before submission. Was deciding so hard between physio and occupational therapy. But chose Physiotherapy in the end.

Hello I'm currently a NP biomedical science Y3 student thinking of applying to SIT's physiotherapy/radiation therapy. L1R4 8, GPA 3.68-3.7 (as of now), CCA gold (leadership positions etc). What are the chances of getting in? (I'm applying to the courses from SIT itself not collaborate)

You should have a fair chance of getting in.
But the interview part is very important, it will make or break you suitability for the programme. So do brush up on your interviewing skills.

And since SIT uses a holistic aptitude admission, it is also advisable that you have work or voluntary experience in healthcare to further strengthen your application.
I'm sure it is easy to find voluntary opportunities in polyclinics and hospitals.

I'm currently a student of SIT Acc. I would say that it is definitely hard to get into Accountancy every year since the course commenced. The first year (pioneer) batch was easier to get in because there are still many many people who doesn't know SIT accountancy exists. (probably never read the news or not enough marketing) So every year, the requirements will be more stringent, especially I heard from my Profs that thousands have applied but the course is only opened up to 100+ people.

Based from what i heard from my coursemates, non-relevant diploma (yes, even banking & finance are considered non-related) applicants will need to have higher grades to get in. So the people I know usually got (3.7 to 3.9). And in teh interview, 90% the interviewer will ask why you wana switch ur field to accountancy especially if your diploma is like totally not related.(science, engineering etc.) Better to come up with a convincing reason why you wana try accountancy this time and not continue your field from poly. As i recall, they open abit lesser spaces for non-dip related, but im not sure this time because they may expand the intake.

For related dip holders, the lowest gpa I've seen that got into this course is around 3.4? But if take into account of more applicants and grades inflation, I can tell you that even those people with 3.5 will have a tough competition this time.

And the interview last year I heard was tougher than the pioneer batch interview. So good luck... and to end off, this course is not easy, even if you're from accoutancy background. But if you can manage your time well in the squeezy hectic fast paced trimester, you stand a chance to get first class.
Hi, can I know what is the SIT Acc interview about?
