Think through the different options that are available for you. Keep things in perspective. Remember that N-Level is just one part of your life journey and not the destination.

Approach a trusted adult and seek his/her help. Have aconversation with this person about what would be best for you.Make a decision based on your options and take action.

May students apply for PFP and DPP at the same time?

Yes. If a student is offered a place in both the PFP and DPP, she can only accept ONE course offer, accepting BOTH will VOID both offers.

If a student has already accepted the DPP offer, if FORM P is given during the release of the O level results, the student can still apply and accept the PFP offer in January but will need to apply to withdraw from the DPP course.

There will be a refund of DPP enrolment fees, subject to ITE’s approval.
