Academics

Apart from the regular academic requirements, entry into the diploma programme also requires students to fulfil their artistic and design potential aspect through portfolio submission, admission test or audition. The intakes especially for the furniture design major from the 3D Design course are deliberately kept small so that each student gets focused attention. Selection is competitive and is subject to the availability of places too.

Diploma students can advance into any Singaporean Universities strictly depending on the diploma major the student graduated with, for example the National University of Singapore (NUS) or the Singapore Management University. In 2020 with the opening of the new Bachelor of Landscape Architecture course by the National University of Singapore , prospective students that graduated from NAFA’s Diploma in Design (Landscape and Architecture) programme will be eligible for up to 28 Advanced Placement Credits (APCs) without any placement tests, into the Bachelor of Landscape Architecture course.

Many students also opted for overseas universities upon graduation with the diploma, mostly in a related areas as their diploma studies such as – Fine Arts, Architecture, Interior Design, Landscape, Graphic Design, Fashion, Music, Theatre and more. Other than Singapore’s polytechnic-level diploma, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts also collaborates with University of the Arts London to offer a government subsidised 2-years Bachelor’s degree-level education for their diploma graduates, or 3-years Bachelor’s degree-level for Singapore’s GCE A level or other non-relevant Singapore’s Polytechnic Diploma graduates.

Since 2006, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) students are granted accelerated bachelor’s degree programmes with Nanyang Technological University (NTU), meaning NAFA diploma holders will have the option to pursue a direct honours degree at NTU over a shorter span of three years or less. NAFA students can also apply for places in any faculty freely in NTU with advanced placement through the signing ceremony for the Memorandum of Understanding.

Apart from regular diplomas, there is also a special 4-years diploma course where students will study for the first 3 years at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) and the final year at the National Institute of Education (NIE), from which students will graduate with a Diploma in Art (Teaching) or a Diploma in Music (Teaching)  from NAFA and a Diploma in Art Education or Diploma in Music Education from the NIE. Graduates from this scheme will be deployed to teach Art or Music in Primary schools.
