Joint Polytechnic Special Admissions Exercise (JPSAE)
AY 2009/10 (Full-time Diploma Courses)
Acad Year 2009/10 starts on 20 Apr 2009.

We will have the flexibility to consider students who demonstrate a strong passion or aptitude through work attachments, sustained involvement in projects, and outstanding performance in competitions like the Maths/Science Olympiads. We will also consider candidates who possess exceptional talents in areas such as leadership, community service, entrepreneurship, sports and arts. Each polytechnic will have the discretion to determine its modes of assessing students’ talents and achievements, including portfolios and interviews, among others. |
JPSAE opens at the same time as JAE.
