DPA Info (and more)!

HELLO THERE ALL YOU MORTALS! As Fanning mentioned earlier, there's going to be a feature show on the upcoming DPA soon.

The Direct Polytechnic Admission Exercise will last from 3 - 11 July 2008, and its a chance for students to confirm a spot in a course that you want even before you take your O level examinations. Here're some details regarding DPA (taken from TP's DPA website) -

What is the DPA?

• It’s an admission exercise which allows students who have the passion and aptitude for applied learning to secure a place in a polytechnic course before you sit for your ‘O’ Level examinations.
• It’s an avenue for students whose passion and talent in a specific field are not fully reflected in their examination results.
  

Why should I apply for DPA?

• It gives us greater flexibility to select you based on a wider range of your talents other than your examination results.
• You get to enjoy special preparatory programmes which let you chalk up poly credits counting towards your graduation before your friends even enrol.

For more information, you can check out our DPA website and the DPA blog that we've linked at the side (dunno why Fanning so "mysterious" about it).

Oh yah. Fanning managed to "catch" some "Star Sports Students" for interviews which we'll be putting up next week also, together with all the fun stuff we'll be doing for the DPA. So busy! Pffft... that slavedriver.
