The Singapore University of Technology and Design is launching a new education grant for its students.
The grant will provide each recipient up to $12,000 for a four-year degree programme, and cover more than 800 undergraduates each year.
The grant is tenable for up to eight academic terms, provided the student continues to meet the eligibility criteria.
SUTD already provides financial support for students from lower and middle-income families. Together with the enhanced Higher Education Community Bursary from the Government, these students’ tuition fees are effectively 100 per cent subsidised.
SUTD president Chong Tow Chong said his university’s efforts are “in line with the Government’s efforts to enable every Singaporean student to have the opportunity to receive a good education regardless of family circumstances”.
