Application for the PFP

1. Students who are interested in applying to the PFP should first progress to Secondary 5. Upon the release of the GCE 'O'-Level results in January, eligible N(A) students will receive a copy of Form P through their schools, inviting them to apply for the Polytechnic Diploma courses of their choice under the PFP. Applications for the PFP will commence after the release of the GCE 'O'-Level results. A successful applicant will be posted to the corresponding PFP for the Diploma course that he/she has been offered a place in. Application results will be released by end-January. Students should only withdraw from Secondary 5 at the end of January, after they have accepted a PFP offer. Refer to FAQ for more details.
