DSA Portfolio Preparation Course

Our Programme

Direct School Admission, often known as DSA, is a school admission process which gives pupils the chance to showcase a variety of accomplishments and talents in order to apply for admission to institutions. Here at HiArt our DSA Preparation Art Course is designed to assist students in putting together a portfolio of artwork for applications to Secondary schools. Students in Primary 4-6 who have an interest in the visual arts may apply to secondary schools prior to the PSLE. This course aims to help students with the portfolio-building process to enable them to apply to their preferred schools of choice.
