Junior Colleges / Pre-Universities

Upon completion of the GCE 'O' Level examination, students may apply for entry to a junior college for a two-year pre-university course or a centralised institute for a three-year pre-university course. Junior colleges and centralised institues prepare students for their entry to the university and lay the foundation for tertiary education. The curriculum comprises two compulsory subjects, namely General Paper and the Mother Tongue, and a maximum of four Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education 'Advanced' GCE 'A' Level subjects from the Arts, Science or Commerce Courses.  At the end of the pre-university course, students sit for the GCE 'A' Level examination.

Foreign students are accepted at Junior Colleges and Pre-Universities subject to the availability of vacancies.
