What Scholarships Are Available for International Students?
- MOE Tuition Grant - technically a subsidy rather than a scholarship, but the most widely used cost reduction tool for international students, in exchange for a 3 year work bond
- NUS and NTU merit scholarships - offered directly by the universities for strong academic applicants, sometimes covering full tuition and a living allowance
- Singapore International Graduate Award (SINGA) - for PhD candidates, covering tuition, a monthly stipend, and airfare, jointly run by A*STAR and partner universities
- ASEAN scholarships - available to students from Southeast Asian countries, often covering full tuition and living costs at the undergraduate level
Exact scholarship coverage amounts vary by program and year. Always check the specific scholarship's current terms directly with the awarding university rather than relying on a fixed figure, since these are reviewed and adjusted periodically.
