Want to become a teacher or education officer in PNG? The best pathway is through one of PNG's Teachers' Colleges, but you must have a GPA above the required threshold.
In this article, PNG insight provides brief information about the 16 teachers' colleges in PNG and how to apply as a school leaver and non-school leaver (NSL).
Update: From 2024, the Higher Education Department, Education Department and Teachers Service Commission have agreed to a HIGHER GPA than 2.4, click here to get the full information.
What is the GPA for Teachers' Colleges in PNG?
The GPA for teachers' colleges in PNG complies with the DHERST (Department of Higher Education, Research, Science and Technology). The threshold was 2.0, but the Department of Education (which employs and registers teachers) has raised it to 2.4, see the news article.
Also, there are two important factors that can affect your selection to a teachers' college in PNG.
Firstly, a threshold GPA is like the borderline - as an applicant you want to have a GPA that is higher than the threshold to increase your chance of being selected.
Secondly, your grades should indicate consistency. For example, your selection may be placed in a pool or disregarded if you achieve great marks in most subjects - which are likely to give you a good GPA - but your English and Literature mark is terrible.
There is more to being selected than GPA. A good GPA increases your chance of being selected, but it is not the only determining factor. There is more decision-making involved in the selection process.
Government scholarship TESAS
Note that the government scholarship TESAS(Tertiary Education School Assistance Scheme) recommends a GPA of 2.0 or higher.
You can be on TESAS when entering a teachers' college with a GPA above the threshold, yet if you do not maintain it in your first year, you'll have to go by as a self-sponsored student.
So, it is important to get a GPA above 2.0 and perform consistently across all your subjects in Grade 12 if you want to study at a teachers' college in PNG.
How to apply to a teacher's college as a school leaver?
Applying to a teacher's college as a Grade 12 school leaver is easy. You'll have to do that at your school with the help of your teacher through the http://apply.dherst.gov.pg login portal.

Non-school leavers are the Grade 12 students who completed school in the last five years or those who upgraded their marks at FODE and want to study at a college in PNG.
If you are an NSL, you'll have to apply directly to the college you wish to study. It will have the latest application form, school fee info and other admission details you need to know before applying.
How to check your name in Teachers' College Selection 2024?

Several readers have contacted us regarding the 2024 Acceptance Lists for PNG Universities, particularly the PDF lists for Non-School Leavers, School Leavers, and Continuing Students. This article aims to answer some of the most frequently asked questions, giving you a clearer picture of what to expect between now and early February 2024.
So, whether you're a non-school leaver, school leaver, or continuing student, read on and prepare yourself!
We've also included recommended blue links throughout this article, providing detailed information on pressing questions currently on the minds of many students and parents.
Important:
The 2024 Acceptance Lists for Non-School Leavers, Re-enrolled Students and Continuing Students will first appear on the university's website or in the newspapers before being shared through social media channels and other websites. This also includes Online Students. Therefore, checking the official university website or the newspapers remains crucial for Non-School Leavers, Re-enrolled Students Continuing Students and students enrolled for online studies.
Grade 12 School Leavers Selection Lists will appear on the DHERST website. DHERST has scheduled the launching of the 2024 School Leaver Acceptance on the 21 of December 2023. Students can check their NOAS accounts to verify their selection status. At actual publication of the Acceptance and Admission Lists will take place on the 23 of December 2023.
Non-school Leavers Acceptance List
The Non-School Leavers' Acceptance List (NSL) for 2024 features students who did not graduate from Grade 12 in the last five years. This list also includes foreign students and PNG students applying from overseas schools such as those in the US, NZ, Australia, and Singapore.
Important Note: DHERST does not publish the NSL. Instead, each university you applied to will release its own NSL PDF before the academic year begins. So, check the websites of the universities you applied to for the latest updates.
Top Tip: Check the university websites for past year's NSL selection lists. This will give you a good idea of when to expect the 2024 NSL to be released.
If you are a continuing student, your university will put out the continuing students' acceptance lists at the end of the academic year or over the 2023/2024 Christmas holiday. It is your responsibility to find out your GPA and possible TESAS Status for the academic year 2024.
The best thing to do is to contact the Student Admin or the university or college Registrar and find out if they've released the Continuing Students Acceptance List. And importantly, check to see that your name is on the list.
The University of Goroka (UoG) did well last year by informing its continuing students about their status before they went home for the Christmas holiday. We hope UoG does the same this year because it helps massively with the registration and orientation of its NEW students.
In fact, the other universities and colleges in PNG should do the same by informing the Continuing Students to avoid the long queues and unnecessary delays during the registration week.
2024 School Leavers Selections Lists - DHERST
The Grade 12 School Leavers Selections is solely done by DHERST (Department of Higher Education, Research, Science and Technology) through its National Online Application System (NOAS) and National Online Selection System (NOSS).
If you are a 2023 Grade 12 student, your selections and the announcement of your TESAS status will be formally done by DHERST.
When is DHERST Acceptance List PDF coming out?
By now the Grade 12 Schools Leavers should know whether they are selected to a University or College, or not.
In fact, the higher education department launched the Grade 12 National Online Selection on the 21st of December 2023.
But the non-school leavers and continuing students will have to wait until ALL the names (quotas from each university and college) have been confirmed, compiled and released to the general public.
Only then, the students should be able to know their confirmed SELECTION STATUS, as well as their final TESAS STATUS.
Check out this video info we provided last year - it is still relevant to this year's selections and release of the Acceptance List PDF
Are you on TESAS?
DHERST used different statuses to indicate the TESAS Awards for selected students.
The awards are based on the PNG government’s yearly sponsorship for students under the AES and HECAS categories, excluding the self-sponsored or corporate and overseas-sponsored students.
So how will the NSLs, Grade 12 SLs and Continuing Students know if you are on TESAS or not? You can CONFIRM your scholarship status (whether you are on TESAS or self-sponsored) through the final (official) Acceptance List released by DHERST.
What to do as a Self-sponsored student?
Perhaps the important thing is to confirm your PNG GOVT SCHOLARSHIP (TESAS) status on the 2024 Tertiary Institution's Acceptance List.
As the name implies, if you are a self-sponsored student you'll have to pay your own fees before the registration and orientation.
If you do not pay the required fees, your place will be forfeited - another student in the admission pool who has the money will take your place.
Check with your university or college to confirm how much you MUST pay to register. In addition, this information will be contained in the Acceptance Letter your institution sends to you. Make sure you read and understand what you must do before admission.
The best tip is to pay only the required amount, register and apply for the PNG govt's HELP program - read how to apply below.
Secure HELP - PNG Govt Scholarship
DHERST will facilitate the Student Loan Scheme (HELP or Higher Education Loan Program).
If you are a self-sponsored student, you'll have to pay your fee for the first semester of 2024 and apply for the HELP loan.
The Continuing students and School Leavers can apply for the HELP loan program through their university or college. This also includes those who are doing their masters or doctorate studies.
Check with your institution and ask for a HELP student loan application form. Also, find out about the due date and what to do so that your application is successful.
What to do if you are on DHERST's Admission Pool?
If you are a student on DHERST's admission pool, you'll have to log in to your National Online Selection Account between now and before the academic year 2024 starts to see if you have been offered a placement at a university or college in PNG.
To give you an idea, the 2021/2022 selection had:
31, 817 students were nominated to sit the exams;
26,544 students certified;
16,171 total HEI quota for 2021; and
10,373 Grade 12 students will NOT be selected for 2022 HEI studies.
The good news is that there are 6,319 spaces (formally called quotas) to be filled via the Admission Pool.
So, keep checking to see if you are one of the lucky ones from the admission pool admitted to a university or college. Here is a video on PNG Insight YouTube Channel that explains how the QUOTA works.
When are you likely to see your name on the DHERST selection list?
When is the 2024 REGISTRATION and ORIENTATION WEEK?
Should you inform your institution that you've accepted that offer?
At least, try to find out the answer to the 5 questions as you prepare to go to your new school.
Here is an article that can help you prepare for registration and orientation week. It gives details on documents you need to present at registration, fees and what to do to get yourself prepared for the new academic year.
