• Students whose cumulative grade point average (CGPA) in their major diploma program is at least 3.00 out of 4.00 at the time of application, and who rank within the top 20% of their class in terms of academic achievement, may apply for a second major diploma program.
• Students whose CGPA in their major diploma program is at least 3.00 but who are not within the top 20% of their class may also apply for a double major program, provided that their entrance score is not lower than the base score of the program to which they are applying for that academic year.
• In order to apply for a double major diploma program, the student must have successfully completed all courses taken in the major diploma program up to the semester of application.
