Cool, cosmopolitan, and right in our backyard - these are only some of the reasons you should consider studying in Singapore.

World Class Institutes

Singapore's institutes including the National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, and Singapore Management University feature amongst the top hundred worldwide, for popular fields of study like business and technology. Along with the above mentioned three universities, Singapore also has private institutes and polytechnics, and has long been known for the cutting-edge qualities of its technical degrees.

Proximity to Home

Of all major global education destinations, Singapore is closest to home - a flight from Mumbai to Singapore is under 5 hours long! This means you can actually plan to be back for festivals, family occasions, or maybe even a long weekend, instead of the US or Australia, from where flights to the motherland can take up to 18 hours, and are much more expensive than those from Singapore.

A Large Indian Community

And the distance is not just geographical; living in the midst of all those Indians - who make up the third largest ethnic group in Singapore - will make you feel right at home, as will the city's cosmopolitan vibe, culture and restaurants. For a true taste of home, head to the Little India district, and you'll think like you never left!

Hyper-City

Living in Singapore, with its fast-paced lifestyle, buzzing clubs and Western shopping districts, is a pleasure. The city offers plentiful opportunities for people of all tastes - world-class theatres, museums, concerts and an emerging art scene for cultural aficionados; seemingly unlimited retail outlets, restaurants and slick clubs for those that enjoy the urban life; and scuba diving, rock climbing, windsurfing, biking, and dragon boat racing for the outdoorsy. And because the national language is English, you'll have no trouble communicating!

Cost

Studying in Singapore is significantly less expensive than other educational destinations. Tuition costs can vary based on the type of institutes, but the popular universities charge between $6,620 - $18,000 per year. Living expenses for students in Singapore are about $800 a month.

Scholarships & Financial Aid

It's relatively easy to get aid, scholarships and loans from both government, and private sources in Singapore. The Ministry of Education Tuition Grant, for instance, which is offered to all full-time undergraduate and polytech students, can cut tuition down by up to 80%
