    Details

    NUS runs the IB Diploma as its own applicant group with its own window. A student looking under "international qualifications" is in the right place by coincidence this year — the two windows happen to coincide for AY2027/2028 — and should still apply under the IB Diploma group.

    NUS runs the IB Diploma as its own applicant group with its own window, separate from the one for other international qualifications — although for AY2027/2028 both happen to run 16 December 2026 to 17 February 2027. It closes a month before NTU's. NUS says most applicants hear by the third week of May, and that IB applicants taking the May 2027 examination will hear by the third week of July 2027. On 23 September 2026 every AY2027/2028 window on NUS's page, including this one, was marked "[Closed]", three months before it is due to open; the status is probably left over from the previous cycle. NUS says to "check the information regularly below for the latest updates, as the details are subject to change." If you still see "[Closed]" in December 2026, write to the NUS Office of Admissions rather than assume you have missed it. One thing this page does settle for an IB candidate: the three-day final-results rule it imposes applies to Advanced Placement, Gaokao, HKDSE, Indian Standard 12 and STPM candidates and the IB is not on that list, so NUS, unlike NTU, sets no three-day turnaround on you.
