Why Study in Singapore?


Singapore is an ideal destination for international students wishing to pursue higher education. The island country proudly boasts of housing high, state-of-the-art standards for education. With a solid focus on the research base, and the proclivity of the Singaporean universities to encourage talent without discrimination as well as the exceptionally nice standard of living accords to the country an attraction that few international students can resist.

The country uses the Singapore Dollar or the SGD as its official currency (SGD 1= 50.91 INR).

The well-built educational system and open job market makes studying in Singapore an obvious choice, both the former and the latter being a matter of priority to the government. Further, the journey is easier for a prospective Indian student as the island country of Singapore has a large student base of Indian students. Also, the English language is widely spoken and is even one of the four primary languages such that international students would not find communication gap to be a difficulty. While it would be stating the obvious it must be said that Singapore’s climate—though warm all year round—is pleasant and beautiful. One must not be put off by the size of the country as the development within its borders more than makes up for it.

Education System in Singapore


The PISA assessment tool from the OECD helps to compare the standard of education in Singapore to that in your home country. While India has not been added to the list to compare its education system to that of Singapore’s an inspection of comparison with other countries would reveal that Singapore is an ideal education destination. You can apply for higher studies in Singapore after your secondary/post-secondary education. This may include Bachelor’s, Master’s or Doctorate.

Singapore’s basic education system comprises of the primary, secondary and the post-secondary stages. Singaporean education falls under the ambit of the Ministry of Education or the MoE which commands a strong education policy.

The Singaporean education system is largely operated in the English language, it being one of the four languages most widely spoken in the country.

The higher education in Singapore would include prestigious and some of the oldest universities offering excellent courses, scholarships and subsidies for those in need (international students), truly amazing quality of life, among others.

Cost of Studying in Singapore


Singapore is an expensive nation by anyone’s standards. However, the small island nation prides itself on providing exemplary education to the students that manage to get admission into their system—both local and international. High end facilities and an ever practical syllabus make for an ideal atmosphere for education.

The question would arise regarding the cost of such facilities. A report published by HSBC—which is a British multinational financial services company—sometime in 2014 suggests that Singapore follows Australia in being among the topmost countries in the world in terms of expensive higher education for international students. Among the top Universities in Singapore which also have the honour of being recognized as being among the best in Asia are the National University of Singapore (NUS), Singapore Management University (SMU) and the Nanyang Technological University (NTU).

On an average, the cost of studying in Singapore has been found to be around SGD 25,000 and S$40,00 or approximately 20 lakh INR. The cost of studying; tuition fees, living expenses, other expenses, etc. would depend upon the programme you have chosen, the duration of your academic pursuits, the University you have enrolled in, etc. As an example, the National University of Singapore which is considered to be among the top tier Universities in Asia, not to mention the world, and which offers various courses in fields such as Medicine, Music, Business, Dentistry, etc. charges a sum of SGD 27,050 or nearly 14 lakh INR for international students wishing to pursue law at an undergraduate level. A breakup of the tuition charges for the various courses offered by the NUS can be found here. The University also charges a separate amount for facilities which is not covered by the tuition fees for academics—as is the practice among the majority of Universities—and this amount is covered under what is called the ‘Miscellaneous Student Fees’ which includes healthcare services, cultural programmes, maintaining the in-campus network and other related services within the campus premises. Information about the miscellaneous fees for NUS may be found here. This largely varies from university to university so it would be best if the individual websites of the universities are visited for information.

There is also the option of applying for scholarships for the in-need students. Find more information regarding the same here. Furthermore, there are several other roads open to Indian students for financial aid.

Coming to the point, however, Singapore is an ideal destination for Indian students, often frequented by them in pursuit of higher education if the statistics by organizations such as the Observatory on Borderless Higher Education or OEBD are to be believed. The primary reason behind this is undoubtedly the closeness the country shares with India making it a much preferable to-travel option for prospective Indian students as compared to the United Kingdom, the USA or Australia. Moreover, the country’s education system is rife with opportunities and state-of-art facilities. Hence, there will hardly be complaints about the quality of education.

Courses such as Medicine, Dentistry, Business and Law would naturally demand a higher cost for tuition by their very nature. The tuition fees for these courses for an academic year ranges in between S$37,000 - S$154,000.

An admired step taken by the government of Singapore for the benefit of international students can be recognized in the Tuition Grant Scheme or the TGS. The scheme requires you to contract to work in Singapore for at least 3 years post-graduation in exchange for which you would be beneficiary to a subsidized tuition fee.

The cost of studying in Singapore would also primarily include the living expenses which would include food, accommodation, healthcare and travel expenses. The secondary expenses would include luxury and entertainment spending.

While compared to its Western counterparts which are also education hubs for international students Singapore is cheaper as far as tuition fees go, but the city demands a higher cost of living than most due to its cosmopolitan nature, ever-increasing economy and steady development. For instance, the accommodation rent for a public room in Singapore would round off to a figure of about 800 to 1000 SGD which is equivalent to 35,000 INR at an average. Bigger apartments or private rooms would demand a much higher rent.

As far as transportation in Singapore is concerned, it is relatively cheap and affordable. A sound piece of advice would be to avoid splurging on private modes of transportation and avail the services of the public transports—like the rail and the bus system—which are comfortable as well as extensive in their reach.

Food costs for students in Singapore come up to be around 500 SGD or and the healthcare/insurance policies for students depend on the University they have enrolled in. For example, you can refer the medical insurance policy of the SMU here. For international students it is ideal to pick a private health insurance policy which will enable them to access the medical services in the country. On an average such schemes would come at a cost of SGD 50,000 or 25 lakh INR.

Life in Singapore, Health and Safety


Singapore is one of the best places to live in among its Asian counterparts. The 2018 World Happiness Report has named Singapore as the “Happiest Country in South-east Asia”. The global human resource consultancy firm, Mercer has also ranked Singapore as the top city in the Asian continent as far as quality of living is concerned. This means that the political & social, economic, socio-cultural, and natural environment, health and sanitation facilities, education, transportation and other public services, rest and recreation, housing, etc. are well ranked.

Like many other things in Singapore, the health care facilities are exceptionally well developed so as to be declared world-class. In fact, Singaporean health care was ranked as the best in all of Asia in 2000. Singapore has government healthcare facilities which are specially made to subsidize the healthcare services. Private healthcare facilities in Singapore are not much behind, either. International students should not be bothered about the price difference between public and private facilities as both compete with each other for supremacy which helps neutralise the excess costs and it ends up in both services costing the same. For a breakup of the healthcare facilities in Singapore refer here.

The safety index of Singapore is 90% making it about the 6th safest country worldwide and the safest in Asia.

Singapore Application Process


The application process in Singaporean Universities differs according to the level one wishes to gain admission into. Primarily there are three levels international students are interested in after schooling: the Bachelor’s, Master's and Doctorate.

In Singapore the educational institutions are divided into six public institutions, five polytechnic institutions, about two art Universities and more than a dozen private Universities. These institutions accept applications from local students as well as international students.

Visit the official university website:

First and foremost, the primary step that must be taken to begin the application process in a University of your choice is to visit the official website of the university (mostly the application process is available in an online format). The online application process for a University is clearly given with easy instructions to follow. This is advisable when you are sure of your goals and are aware in which University you want to be in. Most online application processes will ask you to select your degree of choice and have ready all the documents that would be required for verification and administration purposes.

Note-worthy: Mostly government Universities in Singapore accept online applications. Private institutions are known to require offline applications as well from international students.

Language Proficiency tests required to study in Singapore:

If you are not a native speaker then it’s best to begin with brushing up on those English learning lessons. On the same not, remember to check if the University of your choice has an English proficiency test requirement, in which case you must also have the results of your TOEFL/IELTS tests handy (make sure you have the latest scores; usually six months after the taking of the test is considered to be the margin). This depends upon your University of choice. The Universities in Singapore are known to accept the results of the C1 Advanced exam also.

Added to that, the official languages of Singapore include Malay and Tamil languages besides English. Make sure to check if the University you are interested in has a policy which requires you to be proficient in any of the above mentioned languages other than English, or with combination with it. 

Academic Profile/ GPA:

On a separate note, the results of your school or pre-University college also matter significantly in your application process. Have a strong GPA base ready by the time you are ready to apply. 

Documents required to apply to Singaporean Universities:

It is essential that you double-check the required documents when you are applying at an international University. The documents that you will be required to submit might include-

  • Personal contact information
  • Academic qualifications reports
  • Certificates showing your extracurricular and co-curricular achievements

Other documents which would be asked for may include-

  • Identification documents
  • Academic transcripts/statement of learning/record of achievement. Acquiring the latter often takes time, especially if the office of your institution is closed. Be sure to possess them—duly stamped by your previous University on their letterhead—well within time.
  • SOP
  • LOR

University Application Process for Singapore:

Be aware that the actual application process for University begins much later than the preparation for it does.

The online application process would look something like this:

  1. Visit the official website of the University and look for the ‘Apply’ tab
  2. Fill in your login/sign-up details as may be
  3. Fill up the form with authentic and correct information
  4. Have the required documents ready in the prescribed format
  5. Upload the required documents

The offline application process for universities in Singapore:

In case you are applying offline, you would have to print out the application form and then deal with the hassle of couriering your documents with the application to the admission offices of the University of your choice. More often than not the Singapore University would have a concerned office in India or consultant offices; this is where your offline applications would go to. While some prefer the offline application procedure more it is always better to opt for the online application process when given a choice as that is largely error-free and can be dispensed with in one sitting within the comfort of your home.

University Application fee:

The application process is accompanied by a fee. It may differ according from University to University. For example, the latest rates for applying to the National University of Singapore lies between SGD 10.45 to SGD 20.91 (532.27 INR to 1065.65 INR).

After paying the fee, get a receipt if available. Keep checking the status of your application. It could be found online on the website of the University you have applied in. Keep an eye out for the deadlines. If you are not careful you might miss out on the University of your dreams. As long as we are on that point, you must ensure that you apply to more than one University. There is no certainty that you will get into the first University you apply in, unless your GPA is exceptional and so are your extracurricular credentials.

Remember, your SOP, LOR, Admission Essay, CV, Singapore Student Visa and education loans are an integral part of your application process. Prepare for the same multiple times, see the examples of previously submitted SOPs, etc. to understand the game.

Finally, double-check everything before you submit it online.
