Understand that there is also a rejection list that will be send out.

Yes. LKC told me there are offered, unsuccessful and candidates on waitlist. So got 3 categories. So not all applicants attended MMI are placed on waitlist

Did they mentioned how many is on the rejection list? With that we can know the number on wait list.


According to LKC, ard 50% of the shortlistee will get offer from both Uni, that would mean ard 200 will get double offers.

But I think what we are interested is based on past batches, how many of the wait listers will eventually got an offer. (% of success rate)

LKC just sent out wait list letter to my son.

Chances of getting your LKC waitlist converted to an offer are very high. Reason being most with offers from both unis will choose YLL over LKC.

I hope so. Do u have any idea from your knowledge what is the success rate of those LKC waitlist candidates?

Heard the conversion rate from wait list to confirm offer is pretty high. But do not have the estimate figure. Maybe can check with LKC admission on the past data.

Hi there,


Can anyone advise on the process? How would NTU LKC waitlist move fast if results for NUS YLL will be out only in early May and the students will be given about a month to decide, which brings it to early June. Also, those who get accepted by both unis and decide to choose NUS are not required to reject NTU, which means NTU can only provide confirmation to those on waitlist after the acceptance dateline. Does this mean those on NTU LKC waitlist will only get the confirmation by June/July? In addition, I know of students who applies for Med as 1st choice, then Law/Dentistry. Will students of such be offered both Med and Law/Dentistry at the same time? Many thanks.

Acceptance for uni courses are on a shared central platform. So if a student selects NUS, all the other schools that have made him an offer will know that they have been rejected. You are correct that only after the acceptance deadline will NTU be able to make an offer to those on the waitlist, when they know exactly how many spots are available.

Students will only be offered ONE course per university. So you will not be offered a choice of med/law/dentistry etc. Just your first successful chocie.
