How to apply

Admissions

One online application for all four programmes. It takes about 40 minutes if your documents are ready, and saves as a draft.

The application process

  1. Create your account

    Use the email address you used for your enquiry.

  2. Choose your programme and intake

    You can hold at most two live applications in the same intake. Each is charged and assessed separately.

  3. Fill in your details

    Personal details, education history and work history. The form saves as a draft, so you can finish it later on any device.

  4. Upload your documents

    Documents can be added after your first save. See the checklist below.

  5. Add two referees

    Each receives a private link by email the moment you submit.

  6. Pay SGD 100 and submit

    An acknowledgement email arrives straight away. The outcome is usually issued within four weeks of your application being complete, including references. Some candidates are invited to a 30-minute interview first.

Document checklist

  • Degree certificate, scanned
  • Academic transcripts covering every year of your bachelor degree
  • CV, no set format
  • Personal statement, 500 words
  • Passport bio page, or NRIC for Singapore citizens and permanent residents
  • English test result, or a letter from your university confirming your degree was taught and examined in English
  • Evidence of work experience where your programme requires it: employment letters or three recent payslips

Each programme asks for one extra 500-word statement. See the programme pages for the details.

English requirement

IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0, or TOEFL iBT 90 overall, for all four programmes. Results must be less than two years old on the intake start date. The requirement is waived if your bachelor degree was taught and examined in English, with a letter from your university as evidence.

Referees

Two referees for every programme. For Business Analytics, Finance and Marketing, at least one must be a current or recent line manager. For Management, both may be academic. Family members and friends are not accepted, and an official work or university email address is expected.

References are due seven days after the application deadline. Your referees get automatic reminders, and you can replace a referee at any time before then.

All deadlines close at 11:59 PM Singapore time. Late applications are not accepted, but an unsubmitted draft can be copied into the next intake.

After your offer

Accept within 21 days of the offer date and pay the SGD 5,000 deposit, which counts towards tuition. An offer that is not accepted within 21 days lapses. You can defer once, to the next intake of the same programme, up to 14 days before classes start.

Country grade equivalency

Every candidate is assessed on a 4.0 CGPA scale. Grades on other scales are converted using this table before entry requirements are checked. If your grade does not match a row, your application is held for manual conversion. It is never rejected automatically.
