Higher Education Fair

The Higher Education (HE) Fair, held on 1 April at the Sports Hall, saw close to 50 higher education institutions and organisations exhibit the various courses which they offer. They were met with students and parents who were eager to clarify their doubts regarding admissions requirements and information on the various courses.

Common questions raised included the decision on whether to study in a local institution or to go overseas. Each participating institution/organisation had a representative on site to help answer these burning questions by parents and students alike.

One new feature of this year’s HE fair was the presentation by The Singapore Management University (SMU) and by National University of Singapore (NUS) on their admissions process which allowed students and parents to gain a deeper understanding of the admissions expectations. Feedback from parents was positive as they were pleased with the range of both local and foreign universities available.
