Can I apply?

To be eligible, you must:

  • Be a secondary 4N(A) student
  • Obtain a raw (before CCA) aggregate of 12 points, or lower, from English, Mathematics and your best three subjects (ELMAB3) at your N Levels. Subjects taken at O-Levels can be combined with your N-Level results to compute your PFP eligibility

Eligible students will receive an invitation to apply on the O-Level Results Release Day.

Please note that eligibility to apply for PFP does not guarantee placement in the course of your choice.

  • To be eligible for the course of your choice, you must meet the minimum ELMAB3 requirements of that specific course. Some courses also have medical requirements that you must meet.
  • Students placed on the PFP may or may not eventually posted to the course programme of his/her choice, as admission to a course is based on merit and is subject to the availability of vacancies.
  • You may refer to the past year's ELMAB3 score range to gauge the competitiveness of admission.

Are you a Sec 3N(A) student? Starting from the 2026 intake, students will be admitted to the PFP in 3 broad clusters instead of a specific diploma programme. Find out how our curriculum at NYP is designed to support this new structure.
