Q: Can my daughter who has average grades get into a local university like the Singapore University of Social Sciences ? She is interested in social work and is involved in charity work. To be safe, should she also apply for other courses so that she can get into university?It is admirable that young people such as your daughter aspire to work to bring about positive changes in people's lives.
SUSS uses a four-stage selection process for its full-time programmes, which comprises a 30-minute essay, a 12-minute cognitive test, a group discussion and an individual or cluster interview. Students usually go through the PowerPoint slides, the study guide and the chunked lecture recordings before class. The classes, usually with about 40 students, are meant for students to clarify what they could not understand from the materials.
Social work students are also required to complete 1,000 hours of supervised social work in organisations, take up an overseas experience and have community engagement. The university aims to produce graduates who are professionally competent, social-minded and self-directed learners. At SUSS, WSDegs are open to individuals who have been accepted as full-time undergraduates by the university and by a host organisation offering on-the-job training.
