More nursing diploma holders are entering NUS Medicine. Ngee Ann Polytechnic had a record five in 2026.
NUS said nursing diploma holders are still a small part of each cohort. In 2026, 17 of 286 NUS students came from polytechnics. NTU admitted four polytechnic graduates out of 190, but none had a nursing diploma.
Students said nursing gave them clinical skills, teamwork and a patient focus. Polytechnics said their courses offer strong training.

学生们表示，护理专业培养了他们的临床技能、团队合作精神和以患者为中心的理念。理工学院则表示，他们的课程提供了扎实的培训。
