How do I apply for a bursary?
The University awards the NUS Bursary as a component of the financial aid package to eligible applicants who have been assessed to be needy. Singapore Citizen needy applicants may also be offered the MOE Bursary as an alternative to the NUS Bursary. As these bursaries are tenable for one year, re-application is necessary every year if such aid is required.
Eligible applicants who apply online for financial aid via the NUS financial aid system will automatically be considered for such awards if assessed to be needy. Click here to apply.
