AY2024-25 Grade Profiles, Polytechnic GPAs and Programme Places for ‘A’ level and

Polytechnic Applicants

Applicants need to be aware that the admission criteria may vary from programme to programme.
For the popular programmes with small intake, competition is expected to be keener with more
stringent grade requirements. In order to help prospective applicants make an informed choice, our
University has put together the information in a tabular format for easy reference.

In using the tables below, please note the following:

a. The grade profiles, GPAs and programme places may vary from year to year, depending
on the number and performance of applicants, and the number of places available.

b. The grade profiles take into account offers that were made under Aptitude-based
Admissions (ABA).

c. Meeting the previous year’s grade/GPA scores of a programme does not guarantee
admission to that programme for the current year.

d. Certain programmes may have specific subject requirements. The programmes marked
with asterisk (*) are those where additional assessments such as interviews, selection
tests, and/or portfolios are required. Please refer to the minimum subject requirements
for more details.

e. Double Major Programmes offered by the College of Humanities, Arts & Social Sciences
include 12 programmes from School of Humanities (SOH): Chinese and English, Chinese
and Linguistics & Multilingual Studies, English Literature and Art History, English and
History, English and Philosophy, History and Chinese, History and Linguistics &
Multilingual Studies, Linguistics & Multilingual Studies and English, Linguistics &
Multilingual Studies and Philosophy, Philosophy and Chinese, Philosophy and History,
Psychology and Linguistics & Multilingual Studies; and 4 programmes from School of
Social Sciences (SSS): Economics and Media Analytics, Economics and Psychology,
Economics and Public Policy & Global Affairs, Psychology and Media Analytics.

Double Major Programmes offered by the College of Science include Biological Sciences
and Psychology, Biomedical Sciences and BioBusiness, Environmental Earth Systems
Science and Public Policy and Global Affairs, Mathematical and Computer Sciences,
Mathematical Sciences and Economics, and Physics and Mathematical Sciences.

The grade profiles and polytechnic GPAs are to be used as a guide only.
Table 1: Grade Profiles of the 10th and 90th percentiles of ‘A’-Level Applicants offered places for
programmes at NTU in UAE 2024

Representative grade profiles 1 of the 10th and 90th percentiles of applicants offered places in
AY2024-25 for applicants holding Singapore-Cambridge GCE ‘A’-Level qualifications. This
includes offers that were made under the Aptitude-based Admissions framework. The grade
profiles refer to the grades scored by ‘A’-level applicants in their 3 H2 and 1 H1 subjects. For the
purpose of this exercise, Grade “C” is assumed for both General Paper (GP) and Project Work (PW)
in determining the grade profiles. Please note that certain programmes may require grades higher
than “C” for GP.

1These provide an indication of the grade profiles for most of the applicants admitted in AY2024-25.
There could be other “equivalent” profiles for each programme. For example, a grade profile of
ABC/C could be considered to be broadly equivalent to BBB/C, unless there are pre-requisites.
