The PFP is a one-year diploma-specific programme that offers eligible 鈥楴鈥� Level (Academic) students a practice-based preparatory pathway to a polytechnic education. From the Academic Year (AY) 2026 intake onwards, the PFP will be restructured to a cluster-based programme. Instead of entering PFP for a specific diploma, you will gain admission to the PFP in 3 broad clusters:
After PFP, students will be posted to a specific diploma course within the cluster based on their choices and PFP results.
You need a raw ELMAB3 aggregate score of 12 points or better in the GCE N-Levels. This includes English Language, Mathematics, and your best three subjects. Specific subject requirements are listed below.
The following combinations of results can be used to compute the aggregate score:

The "Net ELMAB3 Range for PFP 2026" in the table below shows the net ELMAB3 aggregate of the highest to lowest ranked students who were admitted to these clusters in the 2026 PFP Admissions Exercise. This will be updated once the posting results have been released. These aggregate scores are meant as a reference for applicants applying to these clusters, and do not constitute the admission scores for subsequent admission exercises.
