Academic Matters

The use of a calculator in examinations is limited to certain models that are approved by the School. Only calculators that have been registered (sealed) are allowed to be brought into the examination halls. Students are to bring the calculators they will use in an examination to the venues mentioned below to be checked and sealed by the School. Students who have registered previously will only need to register again if they have changed their calculators or if the seal on a previously registered calculator is broken.

Please note that for the approved graphic calculators, students are responsible to clear any information and/or programmes stored in the calculator before the examination.

Students must remove the cover of their calculators and place them on the floor next to their desk once they are seated.

The School has arranged the following period for students to register new calculators or re-register old calculators with broken seals. Please observe the date and time closely to avoid any inconveniences.


Date: Monday to Friday     

Time: 9 am to 12 pm, and 2 pm to 5 pm 

Venue:  Premier Scholars Programmes Office, Academic Block North, ABN-B2b-11, Singapore 637335​

The University has adopted a policy known as the Flexible Grading Option (FGO) which allows a student to convert the grades of eligible courses to Pass or No Record grades, which are excluded from the student’s cumulative GPA (CGPA).

With effect from AY2024/25, the FGO aims to empower NTU students with greater autonomy and flexibility to shape their academic journey. The new FGO supersedes the previous Satisfactory / Unsatisfactory (S/U) Option.

Several important rules that REP students need to keep in mind:

  1. FGO Option is available for a maximum of 12 AUs.
  2. FGO Option is not available for Core courses, Major PE and ICC.
  3. Courses available for FGO Option are under the BDE category and Major Prescribed Electives courses offered with an BDE option (MPE-BDE). For the latter, please approach REP Office to seek clarification.

The transcript is an official permanent academic record which contains all courses and grades obtained by a student during his or her period of study at NTU.
