Local Uni School fee

blowfish SG

Anyone know how much now?

Am planning for my kid education but wonder how much it will cost 19 years later.

ditzy SG

Yeah, what course? Medicine? 50K a year now, put into account inflation rate of 5.4% a year, so 19 years later, will definitely not be cheap.

I am currently using my parent's CPF to partially pay the school fees on top of the government grant, leaving me with around SGD$200 per semester to pay in cash. But that's Mech. Eng at NTU.

Alternative is you and family migrate to PRC. Apply for Singapore scholarship if your son eligible. Sure get it! PRC is a sure get it. Besides scholarship the sg govt will give your son allowance of $1500 every month for expenses. Good deal. May be by then it is much higher than the given allowance of $1500 now.

Dude most of the PRC and Indians who study in SG has a good GMAT/TOEFL/IELTS score and asking their Sgian classmates they were never even close.

Hard truth,live with it.
