Forecast or Preliminary A Level results will be considered, with the exception of Hong Kong A Levels, for all programs except Medicine and Surgery.

B=3.0, B-=2.67, C+=2.33, C=2.0, C-=1.67, D+=1.33, D=1.0, F=0. Forecast or Preliminary STPM results will be considered for all programs except Medicine and Surgery.

Malaysia UEC: Score of 20 or less or 15 or less in the best 5 subjects of the UEC – Senior Middle Section (a minimum score of B4 in each subject, not including Chinese language or Bahasa Malaysia). A1=1, A2=2, B3=3, B4=4.

Scotland: Calculated on up to five best subjects (minimum 3 Higher passes), where A=3, B=2, C=1.

Sweden: Scores based on a scale where G=10, VG=15, MVG=20. GPA is calculated by multiplying the grade by the amount of hours per subject.

USA: High School Diploma or equivalent with an ACT composite score no less than 22 or SAT 1 composite score (Maths plus critical reading with no less than 400 in either) no less than 1000.
