Offers online feedback/confirmation of

the application process.

Application is easy and takes only five

minutes.

STEP ONE (1) Locate your candidate #.

Your candidate # is on your CXC

Timetable and is listed on all your exam

receipts.

STEP TWO (2)

Verify that you qualify for sixth form.

Look carefully at the subject choices offered in sixth form.

Look carefully at the subject combinations that are not possible.

STEP TWO (2)

document will be emailed to you. Make sure you

are reviewing the most up-to-date version of this

Important Points

Select subjects in order of

importance: This is very important.

Students must select their subjects placing

the most important subject first and so on.

Note: Even though you are asked to choose

four subjects, the fourth one is only given if the

system cannot give the student one of the first

three. It is therefore important that students

do not have their most important subject listed

as subject 4.

Important Points Ideal subject choices: Ensure that this

section is completed. The selectors will use this area to get a sense of what the student really wants to do in the event that we are unable to offer a specific subject.

Note: This allows us to add the human element to the process. Sometimes students were not given a subject choice because something went wrong in the exam. It allows a teacher to see what was requested and then what the student was able to apply for. Adjustments have been made in the past based on this information.

Important Points

Career: Do not underestimate how

important this information is. It helps us to

give students advice about subject requests.

Note: Very often the subjects that some

students choose will not allow them to complete

their chosen career field. When we know what

the career choice is we are able to advise

accordingly.

Important Points

Email: Ensure that you enter the correct

email address into the system. The system

sends a confirmation email. If the incorrect

email address is given then the

confirmation email will not be received.

Note: Check your bulk or spam mail if the

email is not seen in your inbox. Verify that the

confirmation email lists correctly the subjects

you applied for as your ideal subjects.

Important Points

Consider me for 4 subjects: This check

box located below the picture is only

shown if the student has a minimum of 8

ones.

Note: A student who asks to do four subjects

is only given the fourth after all other students

have been assigned their third subject.

Therefore, ensure that your subjects are listed

in order of priority as you may not receive the

fourth subject even with exceptional results.

Important Points

Students with particularly

exceptional results may opt to do

more than four CAPE subjects. This

request should be made to the Dean

of Studies after acceptance into Sixth

Form.

STEP FIVE (5)

Click the submit button.

Check your email for confirmation

message. Confirmation message will show

subjects applied for and ideal subject

choices. Ensure that this is correct.
