2. Choose a school
When considering DSA-JC option, think about:
Programmes and activities
Selection processes and schedules
Schools have different selection processes, criteria and schedules. Visit the schools’ websites to learn more.
Academics
Think about whether a JC education is what you want, and choose schools that best suit your learning pace, ability and strengths.
If you are a Singapore Citizen, financial assistance and scholarships are available to help you attend the school of your choice.
Students accepted through DSA-JC still need to qualify for JC admission based on their O-Level examination results.
Location and transportation
Think about transportation options for how you will get to school.
Note: If you do not wish to apply for a JC through DSA-JC, you can still participate in the Joint Admissions Exercise (JAE), in which you will be posted based on your O-Level examination results.
