Golfers wishing to play in AST and or ASEAN PGA events, but desire to retain their AMATEUR STATUS can do so by only competing for ranking points and waiving their rights and claim to any prize money above US$ 950 per event - funds which they might be entitled to have won above this amount will be held in credit and applied against future golfing related costs such as entry fees, membership fee, etc.

To pass Q School and become eligible for membership of the AST / AS PGA Tour, and or the ASEAN PGA candidates will need to return a 2 day score (2 cards) which total no more than 15 over par during the Q School and or the PRO Qualifier. 

Successful candidates who have attained 50 years of age, and having paid to become members of the, Asian Seniors Tour (AST) and or the ASEAN Seniors PGA Tour (ASPGAT) may then enter and play as a professional golfer for prize money in AST tournaments

Golfers wishing to retain their AMATEUR STATUS can do so and will be eligible to play in AST and ASEAN PGA events under the auspice of their Asian Amateur Golfer (AAG) and ASEAN Amateur credentials.

In the unfortunate event that a Q School candidate(s) might fail to return the required score, they may go on to re-take Q School during any of the various ASM professional tournaments to be staged during 2024
