• Valued at $3,000 each, the SIT Bursary is applicable to all financially disadvantaged students (both undergraduate and postgraduate students at SIT) with a monthly household Per Capita Income (PCI) of no more than $850.
• 1 in 2 of our student intake are first in their family to attend university.
• Many of our students come from households with a monthly PCI of no more than $1,000 and qualify for financial aid. Many also need to work part-time to support themselves, or they need to help support their family’s household expenses, or both.

Forward SITizen Initiative

• This year, the SIT Bursary will come under SIT’s Forward SITizen Initiative (FSI), which aims to make possible full tuition-fee support for the most financially needy of our undergraduate students.
• FSI will help top up existing Government-funded Public Bursaries to fully cover tuition fees for eligible students. An eligible student is defined as someone who :
  • is an incoming Singaporean undergraduate student
  • is enrolled in any undergraduate degree programme offered at SIT in or after AY 2023/24
  • lives in an HDB flat that is no larger than a 4-room type HDB flat
  • has a monthly per capita household income (PCI) not exceeding $690
  • does not, and whose immediate family members living in the same household do not own any private property in or outside of Singapore; and
  • does not already possess a Bachelor’s degree
