Tution Grant question

apoolbahari88 SG

Hello peeps. I'm a Singaporean and applied for Tution Grant and the rest of the fees are paid through CPF. I'm starting 3rd year soon and I would like to withdraw as I cannot cope with my course's stress anymore. So I wanna withdraw to move on to NS. I have huge aquestions about Tution Gran. Do you have to pay back them to MOE? Is it like the bond? Please help. Thanks Sad

Singaporeans no need pay back the tuition grant, but you need to pay back the money you withdrew from your parent/relative/sibling’s CPF account.

A great relief to hear that you don't have to pay back the grant, or else die liao.

you need to pay back the money you withdrew from your parent/relative/sibling's CPF account

Through what means do I have to pay my mother?

Anyways, anyone from RP? Man my FYP is going down the drains. Everyone has started on their lab while our team is really demoralizing. For all the meetings during the hols, only me and my friend had been attending them. Luckily, it's an independent aspect that each of us have to research on. My friend's doing fine, whereas for me I have no prior knowledge of operating the machine. Seriously, I have doubts about this learning yourself stuff. Everytime a semester ends, all of the stuff we learn on that semester will be fading away from my thoughts. The revisions are only for the purpose of UTs. And I am losing faith in my ability to carry on with this course.

Ha! Me is RP student.

Pay back in cash to your mother's CPF account. At least $100 per month, and has to be paid back fully in 10 years.

If you are going to NS, I'm not sure how are you going to do that. Because CPF Board stipulates that you have to start paying back one year after you quit school. NS is 2 years.

Some NS guys will have to help you on this issue.

Thanks for thips guys. But I don't think there's any regrets in this. My mum asked me to feel not stressed up with FYP, failing altogether.

One question though, Tution grant has limitations of 10 semesters. If you continue poly education after NS, you will have like 5 semesters of Tution Grant. Is this true?
