Can a Pre-Enlistee who already has a first education bar qualification be granted deferment or disruption to pursue another study?
Pre-enlistees can be granted deferment from full-time NS to pursue full-time studies for higher academic qualifications, up to GCE 'A' Level, polytechnic diploma, or their equivalent pre-university qualification. If you have already attained these qualifications locally or overseas, you will not be granted deferment to pursue another equivalent or below qualification.
