New incoming undergraduate students will have modules pre-allocated in the first trimester. Please check your class schedule via SIT IN4SIT two weeks before the class starts.
Before you arrive for the start of classes, it’s a good idea to make a checklist of any remaining tasks to complete and supplies to obtain. By coming prepared on day one, you’ll give yourself the best opportunity to succeed in your freshman year and beyond.
The resources below will help organize your preparation for the academic year, and Student Life and Advising is available to answer any other questions you have. Contact us by sending a message to studentlife.sg@digipen.edu.
SIT Day Zero and DigiPen (Singapore) T-Shirts
All incoming students are required to attend student orientation at SIT Day Zero before the start of the trimester. Join other incoming students to learn more about academic policies at DigiPen (Singapore), get to know your faculty, and receive a DigiPen (Singapore) t-shirt.
Credits Exemption and Transfer of Credits
Students who have completed relevant modules during their postsecondary education, which are comparable in scope, content, and academic quality to modules offered at DigiPen (Singapore), may apply for a one-time credit exemption through IN4SIT. For more information, please refer to the Singapore Institute of Technology website.
Online Bridging Courses on Math and Physics for Incoming Design and Computer Science Students
You are strongly encouraged to complete the Math Quest and Physics Quest online courses offered by SIT to help you revise and refresh your pre-university fundamentals before starting the first trimester. Look out for an email in June 2026 from SIT Quests that will be sent to your SIT email address with instructions on how you can take the courses.
DigiPen (Singapore) Account Set-up
In addition to SIT accounts, all undergraduate students are required to activate their DigiPen user ID to access the DigiPen (Singapore) platform before the orientation. This account allows access to the Student Records System (SRS), Distance (Moodle), DigiPen WebMail, and Microsoft Office 365. Instructions to create your DigiPen user ID will be sent to your personal email in August. Account creation should be completed before orientation. If you have any questions or issues setting up your DigiPen user ID, please contact helpdesk.sg@digipen.edu.
