Tuition Grant
The substantial tuition subsidy from the Government of Singapore comes in the form of a Tuition Grant (TG) which is administered by the Ministry of Education (MOE) and offered to students who are Singapore Citizens or Singapore Permanent Residents only. Students who apply for and are approved for the tuition grants need only pay subsidised fees (also referred to as the "Subsidised Tuition Fee" portion of fees). While the tuition grant is not repayable, and Singapore Citizens in receipt of it will not be required to take a service bond, the following accountability measures will apply:
- Singapore Citizens on Public Service Commission (PSC) scholarships or bursaries will be required to undertake a service bond under the terms of such scholarships or bursaries.
- All Singapore Permanent Residents (except those already in receipt of a service bond from the PSC or the Ministry of Health) will be required to undertake a service bond under the terms of the tuition grant to work with a Singapore-registered company for three years upon completion of their degrees so as to discharge some of their obligations to the Singapore public for the high subsidy of their education.
Students who do not sign the tuition grant agreement or who are not eligible for the tuition grant will have to pay non-subsidised tuition fees.
The MOE Tuition Grant stated on the Ministry of Education (MOE) website is applicable for AY2011/12 for all subsidised undergraduates.
Full-time undergraduate students (Singaporean or Singapore PRs) who gain admission to SIT on a subsidised fee basis for AY2011/12 are eligible for TG up to the normal programme duration of a 2 year programme.International students are not eligible to apply for TG.
Students with a Bachelor's Degree or Higher Qualification
Students who already hold a bachelor's degree or higher qualification will be eligible for Tuition Grant if they wish to pursue a second programme of the same or lower level in SIT, as long as they did not attain their bachelor's or higher degree through any subsidy by the MOE or sponsorship by the Singapore Government (this includes the receipt of a government scholarship such as those offered by the Ministries, Public Service Commission and Statutory Boards for local or overseas study).
Transfer/Re-admitted Students
Students who have already received TG in their previous programmes at any Autonomous University* will be eligible for TG up to the normal programme duration less the number of semesters of TG they have already received. (i.e. Number of semesters of TG eligible for the new programme = Number of semesters required to complete the normal programme – Number of semesters TG has been received for the previous programmes).
*Autonomous University refers to either National University of Singapore (NUS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Singapore Management University (SMU).
Special Cases
For special cases where students who transfer with full credits are also given special credit exemptions such that they are promoted beyond the next level of study in the new programme, for e.g. from year 1 to year 3, the number of semesters of Tuition Grant that such students are eligible for is then based on normal programme duration for the new programme less the number of semesters of Tuition Grant received for the previous programme(s), less the number of semester(s) waived based on special credit exemptions.
