Dear JC parents,


Mid-year started already … we will be staring at Choices for undergraduate programs at local university in 18 month time. For parents of ARTs stream(With H2 maths) students , followings are choices

1) NTU/NUS/SMU - Accountancy & Business Administratation corses
2) NTU/NUS/SMU- FASS( Faculty of Arts & Soc Science courses)
3) NUS/SMU/SIM( Coomunity law) - Law courses
4) Yale-NUS

Seems like very limited choice , is there any undergraduate program available at local university, i have forgotten?

FASS coveres a very wide range of courses, so the list would be more than it looks.

Ok .. Understand. Do you apply to FASS or individual courses.My Niece says , she was accepted by NUS FASS, but i dare not ask above!

Sorry, no idea whether the application requires you to indicate course or whether it's for the whole FASS. It's so wide a range that I guess there should be some indication of course, but I don't actually know. Someone else who knows, please?

Dadofgirl, you apply to FASS first. Then if successful, select your majors upon admission.

Oh, so even if you get into FASS, it's not a done deal that you get into the major that you want? But some majors are so much more popular than others, so wouldn't the cut-offs be very different? Does NUS release info about the cut-offs for each major? Seems a bit hit and miss, then.

Yes, it's more competitive for some majors. There's a bidding system involved in allocating majors. Details here: http://www.fas.nus.edu.sg/prospective/u ... q.html#six
