    NTU's own table for IB Diploma holders: online application 15 October 2026 to 19 March 2027, with programme choices, the application fee, the criminal records declaration and any scholarship application all due by 19 March 2027, supporting documents by 22 March 2027, and Art, Design and Media portfolio materials by 19 March 2027.

  2. 22 March 2027

    Nanyang Technological University — supporting documents due
    Hard deadline
    Details

    Three days after the application itself. NTU states that an incomplete application after the deadline will not be considered. A fourth NTU date sits a further four days out and has its own entry below: the photograph and appraisal form on 26 March 2027.

  3. 26 March 2027

    Nanyang Technological University — photograph and appraisal form due
    Hard deadline
    Details

    A week after the application closes and four days after the supporting documents, and the last of NTU's four staggered deadlines. It is easy to miss because by 26 March 2027 a student believes the application is finished. The appraisal form is completed by somebody at your school, not by you, so it has to be requested in February.

  2. 30 June 2027*

    Latest day to give NTU access to your IBO transcript (May 2027 session: end of June)
    Hard deadline
    Details

    NTU says this is mandatory and must be done before July 2027; 30 June is the last day that satisfies "before July". Without it NTU cannot release an application outcome at all. It is arranged through the IB organisation, not through NTU, and it is the step most likely to be left until it is too late.

  3. 9 July 2027*

    Nanyang Technological University — actual IB results due
    Hard deadline
    Details

    Within three days of the results release, by NTU's rule. The date here is 6 July plus three days. Plan the first fortnight of July 2027 around it.

    NTU does not publish a calendar date. It says actual IB results must be submitted within three days of the results release in July 2027, and the IB releases on 6 July 2027, so 9 July 2027 is arithmetic on those two facts rather than a date NTU has printed. It is a very tight deadline and it lands in the Danish summer holiday. NTU also makes it mandatory to grant it direct access to your official transcripts through the IBO before July 2027, which is a separate action you take months earlier.
