4. Singapore Service Obligation Scheme

Most of the scholarship programs provided by both NTU and NUS are highly competitive and challenging to obtain. However, the Singapore government offers an outstanding scheme that significantly reduces tuition fees, known as the Service Obligation Scheme. 

Under this program, the government decreases your tuition fees by almost 50% if you agree to work in Singapore for three years after graduation.

The best part is that anyone who applies for the scheme is typically awarded it. To take advantage of this opportunity, simply inform the university of your interest, and you will likely be granted the scheme. An overwhelming majority of undergraduate students in Singapore are enrolled in this program!
