Jason Enrolled Into Singapore Polytechnic

Finally, Jason is now officially enrolled into Singapore Polytechnic (SP) to do a 3 years course in Diploma in Human Resources Management (HRM) with Psychology.

I went with Jas to SP to collect his Student Card and to buy a notebook at the PC Roadshow specially held for the year's freshmen.

I am impressed with the whole admission process which was highly automated.

Upon accepted by SP, he received an envelope with forms and instructions to follow for the admission process.

Jas had to send some info on forms through 2 different colour envelopes; one for general info and the other for financial info.

He also has to go online to update his personal particulars and applied for his email ID, etc....

He went to one of the recommended clinics to have his medical check-up and X-ray and the results were sent to SP directly by the clinic.

And finally, the last step was going to SP to submit a few photocopy of documents and collect his Student Card.

The whole processing this afternoon was very smooth and no long queue or crowd. Everything was automated and the Student Card was readily available for collection without any fuss. This step was the fastest, in fact.

Then we just walked down the hall and went through some booths manned by students and collected door gifts like SP T-shirt and a notebook case with some brochures...

As we have done our homework on the notebooks being offered at the road show, we chose the one we wanted, paid and collected it in good time. Service was good too!

Then we were directed to the next building to do a full configuration of the notebook as it was pre-installed with the SP required software ( eg Office 2007 + settings for connecting to the school wireless network ). We were guided by a technician in an air-con and spacious classroom. This step took about 30 minutes but time past by quite fast and it is over.

Jason is ready to start school at SP now......Congratulations..!
