Multiple Categories Consideration

When you apply to more than one category i.e. Degree, Diploma, Craft Certificate, Artisan Certificate, you can opt into having the two categories considered at the same time during processing.

For example: If you apply for Diploma and Craft Certificate you will be considered for your Craft Certificate Application in case you miss out on your Diploma Application.

If you opt out of this option only your Diploma application will be considered.

NOTE: If you are placed in the second category of your application you will not be recalled for subsequence
