If you do not have GCE O-Level English or its equivalent, you may take the International English Language Testing System (IELTS Academic) test at any of the local test providers.

Applicants are required to fulfil this requirement before application closing in mid-March.

1. Do I need to offer a contrasting subject? Will the contrasting subject be considered in the UAS?

Yes, as there will be no change to the contrasting subject requirement at the GCE A-Level examinations. Students will be required to offer four content-based A-Level subjects of which at least three must be H2 subjects, and at least one must be a contrasting subject from outside their area of specialisation (i.e., subject from the Mathematics & Science domain for students in the Arts stream, and subject from the Humanities & Arts domain for students in the Science stream) that may be offered at either H1 or H2. 

From AY2026, the fourth H1/H2 content-based subject (which may be a contrasting subject) will only be included in the UAS computation if it improves the score for students who sat for the GCE A-Level examinations in 2025 and after.

2. Will I be eligible for admission if I fail Project Work (PW)?

From AY2026, all applicants presenting local GCE A-Level qualifications will need to present a Pass grade in PW to be eligible for admission.

3. I am a private candidate/I have been exempted from PW. Do I need to offer PW to gain entry into SIT?

Private candidates and students who have been exempted from PW are not subject to the requirement to have a Pass in PW.

4. Can I choose the method to compute my UAS (based on current or revised A-Level curriculum)?

The method to compute UAS will depend on the year you sat for the GCE A-Level examinations and the year you apply to SIT. Applicants will not be able to select the UAS computation method.

5. I sat for the GCE A-Level examinations in 2024 or earlier. How will my UAS be computed?

For AU admission in AY2026 and AY2027 
For applicants who sat for the GCE A-Level examination in 2024 or earlier, their PW, as well as H1 and H2 content-based subject grades will be taken into consideration for UAS computation, as per current practice. Applicants who offered H2 KI can use it in lieu of H1 GP and the H1 content-based subject in UAS computation. Their UAS will be computed on the existing 90-point scale and proportionately weighted to the revised 70-point scale. 

From AY2028 AU admissions 
Regardless of the year of GCE A-Level examination, applicants’ UAS will be computed using the revised 70-point scale. 

The PW grade will not be considered in the UAS computation from AY2028. An applicant would be considered to have met the requirement for admission if he/she presents a Pass grade in PW. If an applicant had previously offered H2 Knowledge & Inquiry (KI) in lieu of H1 General Paper (GP), the H2 KI grade will be considered as the H1 GP grade in the revised UAS computation from AY2028.

6. If I sat for the GCE A-Level examinations in 2024 or earlier, will I lose out to my peers with the revised UAS computation method?

Admission is based on open competition and merit. Your application will be assessed holistically, taking into consideration both academic and non-academic achievements.

7. I sat for the GCE A-Level examination in 2024 or earlier. Will I be allowed to use H2 Knowledge & Inquiry as one of my H2 content-based subjects in the UAS computation?

Applicants who had sat for the GCE A-Level examinations in 2024 or earlier and offered H2 Knowledge & Inquiry (KI) in lieu of H1 General Paper (GP) will not be allowed to use H2 KI as a H2 content-based subject in the UAS computation, as the H2 KI grade will be required to fulfil the H1 GP requirement under the revised UAS computation.
