1. How do I join the club?

3. Do I need to pay any membership fees in order to join?
Nope you need not, we are a non-profit organization. Collection of funds are only for a few major events like camps, chalets etc (we'll state when you need to pay). The amount is also kept low as we believe money shouldn't an issue to gain the necessary fun and experience.

Yes indeed we are part of the BB. However, the Primers programme is a special one catered for both young men and young ladies.

5. I am not a Singapore Polytechnic student, can I join?
It is a little tough as most of the subsidy are meant for SP students and it is difficult to track the admin aspect of the programs. However if you are from either NP or NYP, you can consider joining in your own school.


CCA POINTS


6. Do I get CCA points for all the events I join?
Most formal events e.g. Beach Day, Amazing Race have CCA points tagged along with them while informal events e.g. steamboat sessions, movie outings does not have any.

7. I was told that I can get points for attending this particular event but I've yet to receive any after a few days. How and who do I verify this with?
Points normally take a month to be reflected in the SAS. However if this issue is really bothering you, do talk to our EXCO Admin or the President's Office.
