Short answer

Yes. Singapore universities accept IGCSE as part of entry requirements. You typically need IGCSE plus A-Level, IB, or equivalent for undergraduate admission. IGCSE alone is not enough for degree entry.

What you need

• IGCSE: Usually expected for entry to pre-university courses and as part of your academic record
• A-Level, IB, or equivalent: Required for direct undergraduate admission
• Subject-specific requirements: Some subjects (e.g. Medicine) may require specific IGCSE and A-Level subjects

NUS, NTU, SMU

• NUS, NTU, SMU and other Singapore universities accept IGCSE and A-Level (or equivalent) from Cambridge and Pearson.
• Check each institution’s admissions pages for exact requirements and any subject stipulations.

Practical takeaway

IGCSE is a solid qualification for Singapore university entry. Pair it with strong A-Level or IB results for competitive courses.
