This Code of Practice For Quality Assurance of the Open Entry Admission System, referred to as The Code of Practice is aimed at providing good practices for admitting mature students into higher education programmes and to safeguard the integrity of the programmes.

The Code of Practice sets out general principles that are of interest to a range of stakeholders. It is not an instruction manual and does not provide a detailed account of approaches and procedures.

The Code of Practice recognises that approaches and mechanisms in quality assurance of higher education are often evolving. Hence, a developmental, non-prescriptive and non-exhaustive approach is adopted in this Code of Practice.
