What is the Admission Criteria?

The EAE offer is conditional. To ensure that you are able to meet the rigours of polytechnic education, you must meet these requirements in the GCE O-Level exams to confirm your place in the polytechnic course:

  • Obtain a net ELR2B2 aggregate score of 26 points or better; and

  • Meet the Minimum Entry Requirements (MER) for the selected course. The MER for RP courses can be found at the respective diploma pages.

Why choose RP?

Joining RP via EAE was the best decision ever. RP offers the PBL system and I think this is what differentiates us from students of other polytechnics. It allowed me to pursue my passion and I am having hte time of my life every day!
