Dear Mr Goh,
Your request was received on 1 October 2018 and I am dealing with it under the terms of the Freedom
of Information Act 2000 (‘the Act’).
You asked:
May I know the A-Level/IB grades of Singapore applicants for Computer Science, and the H3
grade (if any)?
May I also receive the CSAT or other entry test score of Singapore applicants and the interview
score, along with whether they got offered/pooled/rejected into which college, and if the entry
test is not the CSAT, may I receive a sample of the test.
The requested information, insofar as it is held, is attached. Only a small number of the Singapore-
domiciled applicants took the CSAT. We do not hold interview scores. We have not supplied College
names as to do so would render individuals identifiable and so the information is exempt under section
40(3A)(a) of the Act because its release would breach the first data protection principle (the fair, lawful
and transparent processing of personal data) as set out in the General Data Protection Regulation.
This part of section 40 confers absolute exemption under the Act. Please note that the attached
document should not be copied, reproduced or used except in accordance with the law of copyright.
If you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your request and wish to make a
complaint or request an internal review of this decision, you should contact us quoting the reference
number above. The University would normally expect to receive your request for an internal review
within 40 working days of the date of this letter and reserves the right not to review a decision where
there has been undue delay in raising a complaint. If you are not content with the outcome of your
review, you may apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally, the
Information Commissioner cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the complaints
procedure provided by the University. The Information Commissioner may be contacted at: The
