How do I find employment under the Work-Study Assistance Scheme?
Students who have opted for assistance under this scheme will be sent job openings by employers who participate in this scheme via email to their NUS email account. Students under this scheme also source for jobs from a list of available on/off-campus work here. International students are not allowed to work for more than 16 hours per week during term time.

What is the difference between "Part-Time Appointment Scheme" and "Work Study Assistance Scheme"?
Part-Time Appointment Scheme is a non-needs based financial aid scheme which all full-time undergraduate and post-graduate students are eligible to apply.
