Notes on fees

 

There is no application fee for research programmes.

Nevertheless, there are eligibility guidelines and various types of fees that you need to know:

1.) Eligibility Guidelines for Ministry of Education (MOE) Subsidy

The substantial tuition subsidy from the Government of Singapore comes in the form of a MOE Subsidy which is administered by the Ministry of Education (MOE) and is offered to all admitted students up to the maximum programme duration. Students need not apply for the MOE Subsidy if they are eligible. 

(1.1) Students with a Higher Degree Qualification
Students who have previously enjoyed MOE subsidy in a graduate programme will not be eligible for MOE subsidy in another graduate programme at the same or lower level. Instead, such students will be liable to pay “Full Fees” for the graduate programme that they now wish to undertake. For example, students who had previously enjoyed MOE subsidy in a Masters programme and had attained the Masters degree will not be eligible for subsidy in another programme at Masters degree or lower level. In addition, if they wish to upgrade in another discipline area where the programme has a combination of Masters and PhD candidature, they will not be eligible to enjoy MOE subsidy during the Masters candidature.

(1.2) Transferred or Re-admitted Students
Students who are transferred or re-admitted within NTU or across Autonomous Universities* will be eligible to receive MOE subsidy up to the maximum programme duration for the new programme less number of semesters of MOE subsidy received for the previous programme.

* Autonomous Universities refer to NTU, National University of Singapore (NUS) and Singapore Management University (SMU)

2.) Tuition Fees (Research)

Service Obligation
From AY 2008-2009 onward, individual international student who chooses to pay at a lesser subsidized fees will need to take up a 3-year service obligation. As part of the service obligation, the foreign student is required to work in Singapore-based companies upon graduation. Singapore-based companies refer to local companies and international companies that have a base in Singapore which is registered with the Accounting & Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA).

For further information or enquiries about service obligation, please click here. For those under scholarships, the terms for the Nanyang President's Graduate Scholarship, NTU Research scholarship, and Singapore International Graduate Award (SINGA) are being reviewed. Revised terms of the scholarships will be implemented from the January 2013 intake onwards.

Notes on payment of fees

1. Every year, fees are reviewed and subject to revision. As and when fees are revised, the new fees will be applicable to all existing and new students.

2. GIRO is the preferred mode of payment. Students can opt for GIRO payment after they have a Singapore account. You can download the GIRO form from this website that is maintained by the Office of Finance. Please hand in the completed form to Office of Finance and Finance will obtain bank’s endorsement on student’s behalf. Upon approval from the bank, GIRO can be activated. If payment is deducted via GIRO, this information will be reflected in the student bill. Besides GIRO, the University acept cash/Nets/cheque.

3. Fees can be paid via S$ Demand Draft with a clearing bank in Singapore. If demand draft is drawn on a bank located outside Singapore, clearing may take up to 6 weeks and there are bank charges. Therefore, we do not encourage receiving such foreign bank’s demand draft . This demand draft should be made payable to Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the amount is meant for payment of NTU fees only.

4. Billing takes place at the commencement of each semester, and payment due date is 2 weeks after billing date.

5. Fees for each academic year must be paid in advance and within the stipulated periods.

6. Tuition Fees are to be paid only upon receipt of the bill from the Office of Finance. The bill will be sent to successful candidates by the Office of Finance AFTER they have matriculated formally with the University. The fees must be settled within the deadline stated in the bill.

7. Persons who fail to pay fees within the stipulated periods will have their names removed from the register of higher degree students. A person whose name has been thus removed but who is otherwise eligible to continue his candidature will be reinstated only after he has settled all outstanding fees and paid a re-registration fee of S$53.50.

8. A student who withdraws or leaves the University two or more weeks after the commencement of his candidature or the commencement of the semester is liable to pay the fees due for the semester.

9. The University's Board of Trustees reserves the right to alter fees at any time without notice.
