Five polytechnics in Singapore enroll students in Sichuan and have scholarships.
The University of Singapore has gradually become a bright spot in the study abroad market. After 40 senior two students received full scholarships funded by the Singapore government, five polytechnics successively recruited students with scholarships of 80% tuition per person. Large scholarships have become a major advantage of studying in Singapore. What are the types and characteristics of scholarships offered by the University of Singapore to China students?
Full scholarships are strictly recruited.
According to reports, three national universities in Singapore (National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University and Singapore Management University) provide undergraduate education and award bachelor's degrees, and five polytechnics (Singapore Polytechnic, Aang Polytechnic, Temasek Polytechnic, Nanyang Technological University, * * and Polytechnic) award professional education diplomas (equivalent to junior colleges). Full scholarship to learn sniper rifle? 4. What's wrong with me? Scarlett? Shrug your shoulders? Shallow s xingwei? Zinc home color? What's the matter with you? Gluttony? Afraid of waking up? Ping? Did you have a good bath?
Scholarships are only for science and engineering students.
In contrast, 80% government grants provided by five polytechnics are more suitable for ordinary students. Jiang Yu said that because the Singapore government set up scholarships to attract more outstanding students to study technical majors that lack talents in the country, scholarships are only for science and engineering students, not for liberal arts students, and the majors are changing every year. The requirements of science and engineering for foreign languages are not as high as those of liberal arts, but the requirements for English, mathematics and physics are still relatively strict. Generally speaking, students with a score of 450-550 can apply for the exam.
For the convenience of students, all polytechnics are now adjusting their time to a more suitable time period. For example, Yi 'an Vocational and Technical College will change the enrollment time for next year from March to 1 1.
Why are there 85% and 80% versions on the market now? Acupuncture expert: The official statement in Singapore is 80%, but there is a slight discrepancy due to different majors, which may be higher than 80%, reaching about 82%. With this exemption, the annual tuition fee is about 10000 RMB, and the living expenses are 30000-40000 RMB.
You must stay in your new job for three years after graduation.
It is reported that China students need to sign an agreement after receiving 80% government grants, and they must stay in Singapore for three years. "That is to say, you can have a good job after graduation with a monthly salary of about 8,000 yuan. Moreover, the majors that provide scholarships are urgently needed by the Singapore government. "
Secondly, compared with other countries, as long as you are admitted to the government grant program, you don't need to provide financial guarantee, which is very beneficial to China families.
At the same time, if the results are excellent, the students before 10% (5% before) can be directly promoted to undergraduate courses. Students can also work and study. Now working in Singapore for one year, you can go to undergraduate course.
