NTU website fail

Disclaimer: This column is created for the purpose of humour. If you do not have a sense of it, please email us, and we'll mail it to you at S$103 per gram (UP 3% since last year, since NTU is raising the school fees by 3% for Academic year 2011, after a 5% hike in the previous year). So get it fast before we raise it again the next academic year.

This NTU website fail was spotted by one of our students:

Boy: Mom ah, i want to go NTU!

Mom: but NTU and NUS just annouced a tuition fee hike leh. how?

Boy: Don't worry mom, in today's papers, NTU said even though the school fees have increased, they have set aside more money for financial aids for poor students? Lets visit the school website! And see? under prospective students, that's me! Lets check on their financing options for prospective students!

Boy: and wow, the website says NTU stands by giving every student the opportunity of a university education! And there are various financial assistance schemes for us! And these assistance schemes cover living fees and emergency fees as well!

Okay, there's a link for 'Explore NTU's financing option' lets click it and see what financial aid we can apply for!

Boy: .......

Follow the given links and what do you see? Irony at it's best.

And of course, we are displeased with the new tuition fee hike again.
