If you have received a Confirmed Offer (CO) or are on a Wait List (WL), you will submit your preferred choice of school in the MOE DSA-Sec Portal in late October. The DSA-Sec Portal will only list the schools that have given you a CO or WL, and you will have to rank your choices in order of preference.

Example 1

RI has offered you a Confirmed Offer (CO) and School X has offered you a CO

If your choice order is: 1st Choice: School X (CO) 2nd Choice: RI (CO)

Outcome: You WILL be admitted to School X.

Example 2

RI has offered you a Wait List (WL) and School X has offered you a CO.

If your choice order is: 1st Choice: RI (WL) 2nd Choice: School X (CO)

Outcome: MOE will see if any student who is offered a CO by RI rejects the offer. If there are, students on WL will then be considered.

Note that your CO to School X is protected. Should you not be offered the WL to RI, you will still get your CO to School X.

Example 3

RI has offered you a Wait List (WL) and School X has offered you a CO.

If your choice order is: 1st Choice: School X (CO) 2nd Choice: RI (WL)

Outcome: You will get admitted to School X. You will not be considered for the WL to RI (even if places open up) as you have already placed School X (with a CO) as your first choice.
