Who is eligible for Tertiary Selections?

According to DHERST, Students with GPA of 2.4 are eligible for Tertiary studies ( see how to calculate GPA) . However, the increase in number of students getting higher GPA makes those students with the cutoff GPA of 2.4 miss out on tertiary selections. 

Grade 12 Examination Results
​The Grade 12 National Examinations results are provided to the students prior to the National Tertiary Selections. This makes easier for the students to make the right choices in their School Leavers Forms online using the DHERST's NOAS platform. The Grade 12 Examination Results are provided by the Education Department through the Measurement Services Division. (See how to access Grade 12 Examination Results using the MY PNG Exam Results platform).  Students view the results prior to making changes to their choices in the NOAS. 

Grace Period 
The Grace Period is the time given to all the school leavers (Grade 12s) by the DHERST  for them to finalize  their choices in the NOAS platform. Those students who fail to fill in the school leaver form in the NOAS miss out on tertiary selections.
