If your application is successful, you are required to accept the offer online via the common acceptance platform by the stipulated deadline given in the admissions package.

3)    International Baccalaureate applicants whose Application No. starts with '63XXXXXX’), and

As the online acceptance platform is common across the five local universities, namely NUS, NTU,SMU, SUTD and SIT, you may be offered a course of study in each of the five local universities if you have met the admission requirements and selection criteria of each university.
