Keeping Contact Information Up to Date
Applicants should ensure that the above contact information in their JUPAS accounts is complete, accurate and up to date.
Applicants are responsible for regularly checking information and messages from the JUPAS Office and the Institutions via the communication channels listed above. Failure to do so may result in applicants missing important information. The JUPAS Office will not issue separate reminders about unread messages.
Interview or Assessment Arrangements
Enquiries about interviews or assessments should be directed to the institutions and programmes concerned.
Applicants should obtain permission from their schools if interviews or assessments are scheduled during school hours. Applicants who are unable to attend should contact the institution concerned as early as possible. The institution will determine whether an alternative arrangements can be made.
Applicants who are not invited to an interview or assessment may still be considered for admission. Each institution and programme determines its own selection, interview and assessment arrangements.
■ Since important messages and correspondence from the JUPAS Office, the 9 JUPAS participating-institutions and the SSSDP institutions will be sent via applicants' mobile phone numbers and / or mailing addresses, applicants SHOULD NEVER share their mobile phone numbers or mailing addresses with other applicants in order to protect any information related to their JUPAS applications.

Should there be any discrepancies between information contained in emails and SMS and applicants' JUPAS accounts, the information contained in the JUPAS accounts will prevail.
Applicants are strongly advised to log in to their JUPAS accounts to double-check the related information.
# As email is one of the channels that the JUPAS Office, the 9 JUPAS participating-institutions and the SSSDP institutions will use to contact applicants, applicants must ensure that the setting of their personal email accounts will not filter out or place such correspondence in the trash / junk / spam folders.
