ITE-EAE FAQ
How many choices can I apply for ITE EAE?
You can apply for a maximum of 3 courses.
Please note that the same course offered at different ITE Colleges are considered separate choices
Do my exam results matter after I have accepted the ITE EAE offer?
Students with conditional ITE EAE offers need to meet the subject specific minimum entry requirements (MERs) for ITE courses in order for their offers to be confirmed.
Students who do not meet the MERs will have their conditional offers revoked. They can still apply for ITE courses that their results are eligible for during JIE.
Can I change course or withdraw from ITE after I accept my ITE EAE offer?
Applicants who have accepted the ITE EAE offer and have not withdrawn by the deadline will have their conditional offer automatically confirmed if they meet the MER of the offered course once their 'N' results are released.
Will I receive more than one offer if I did well for all the interviews in EAE?
No. If the ITE EAE application is successful, the applicant will receive a conditional offer for admission to one of your course choices.
