3. Accommodation Fees

Singapore has a small land area and a large population, so only public universities such as the National Singapore University and Nanyang Technological University provide student dormitories. On-campus dormitories are cost-effective, so apply if you can. Dormitory quotas are generally for undergraduates, so it is relatively easy for undergraduates to apply. Graduate students find it difficult to get a school dormitory, so they can only find an off-campus apartment to live in.

Dormitories in Singapore are divided into three categories: student dormitories, HDB flats and facility apartments.

Student apartments cost 500 SGD per month, HDB flats also cost around 500 SGD and serviced apartments cost 750 SGD.

When you are looking for an apartment in Singapore, you can check and book an apartment on Yixianghaoju, Singapore Apartment Network, or Singapore Student Apartment Network.

4. Food and travel expenses

Diet:

The prices in Singapore are similar to those in China, and are equivalent to those in China's new first-tier cities. A fast food meal costs about 20-50 RMB, and a good meal in a restaurant in a shopping mall costs about 50-150 RMB. Personally, I usually spend 7 SGD on a meal outside, which is enough for food and drinks, and the food is quite good. My food expenses can be controlled within 2,000 RMB a month.

The most distinctive food culture in Singapore is the food court, which is actually a bit similar to Shanghai's Food Republic, but with affordable prices and the magical existence of one Michelin star. The average price of a meal is between 3 and 7 Singapore dollars, and the overall taste is heavy.

Each stall in the food court will be marked with A/B/C hygiene rating. Singaporeans generally do not cook at home and often eat out, so there are quite a lot of varieties. Compared with China, the key is to rest assured.

Transportation:

International students in Singapore generally use the subway or bus as their main means of transportation. Singapore's public transportation is very convenient, and you can basically take the bus to almost every large residential area and shopping mall. The starting price of the bus and subway is about 4 yuan, and the monthly travel cost is 50 Singapore dollars, which is about 250 yuan.

5. Visa application + entry medical examination fees

Before entering Singapore, international students need to spend 150 RMB to apply for an IPA from the Singapore Immigration Department. After entering Singapore with the IPA, they need to go to the Singapore Immigration Department to apply for a student pass, which costs 450 RMB, so the total cost is 600 RMB.

You are required to undergo a physical examination in Singapore before registering for admission. The fee for the physical examination at the NTU school hospital is approximately RMB 300.

2. Language requirements for studying in Singapore at different stages

1. Education below high school

Generally, you need to study in a language school for 3 months first, and after 3 months, you can continue to choose a language or go to a third year. Because those who graduate from the third year of junior high school in China basically have to downgrade their studies.

Secondary schools in Singapore last for 4 years. By the time of SEC4, you have to prepare for the O-Level exam. This exam is very important.

Government secondary schools in Singapore charge very low fees, but they need to pay sponsorship fees ranging from 1,000 to 2,000. If the student is under the age of 16, parents can also apply to accompany them.

2. High school degree or college degree

There are two situations here. One is that students whose college entrance examination scores exceed the local undergraduate admission threshold by more than 20 points, TOEFL scores of 550 or higher, or students who have taken the Singapore-Cambridge Education Examination and have reached A-level can directly apply to government universities.

If English is not very satisfactory, just like graduating from junior high school, you must first take a 3-month intensive language course.

3. Bachelor’s degree

Singapore's public institutions have relatively high requirements for college entrance examination results, not to mention the requirements for English proficiency. Private schools in Singapore have relatively loose language requirements, and you can take language courses in Singapore to make up for your IELTS score without IELTS scores.

Public universities: IELTS (IELTS) 6.0 or above (single score no less than 5.5) / TOEFL (IBT) 80 / SAT1 reading 600 and writing 600.

Private universities: IELTS (IELTS) around 5.5 is enough, or you can take language courses without IELTS scores.

4. Master’s degree

The language requirements for graduate students are also relatively high. For example, Nanyang Technological University requires graduates from regular universities with a bachelor's degree officially recognized by the state, and a TOEFL score of 580 or above.

If the English proficiency is not up to the requirements, you can first read the English intensive course of the Singapore language school.

Public universities: IELTS score above 6.5.

Private universities: IELTS score of 6 or above, can also be replaced by language courses.

3. Things to bring when studying in Singapore

1. Clothing

Singapore is near the equator and the temperature rarely drops below 20℃, so there is no need to prepare thick coats. Just bring some practical short-sleeved and long-sleeved shirts, shorts and long pants, short skirts and long skirts (for girls), and close-fitting clothes.

In addition, if you want to attend formal occasions, you need to prepare suits or formal wear, which are not restricted by temperature. You need a complete set of suits and trousers, plus leather shoes. Girls also need to prepare extra formal wear, usually a long skirt or a short skirt, plus high heels.

2. Cash

Unlike Europe, the United States and other countries, due to its close distance to my country, frequent economic exchanges, and a large number of tourists visiting Singapore every year, the popularity of mobile payment here is similar to that in China, so you don’t need to prepare too much cash.

However, you still need to prepare some money. The common currency here is the Singapore dollar, which is very convenient to exchange in China. You don’t need to prepare a lot. About three or four thousand is enough. Of course, you can also bring RMB directly. The exchange rate is relatively stable and it is convenient to exchange currency.

3. Medicines

Also due to the difference in climate, Singapore is relatively hot all year round, and it is relatively humid as it is surrounded by the sea, and there are also many mosquitoes, so it is easy for people to suffer from acclimatization or be bitten by mosquitoes, so it is necessary for everyone to bring common medicines with them.

However, you can't just bring any medicine. When choosing, you should also consider the ingredients. Those that are prohibited from entering the country or have regulations should be eliminated, and those that can enter the country unconditionally should be chosen. You can also prepare a home medicine box, which will be equipped with various medicines.

IV. Documents

The main things are your proof of identity, including your passport and visa, ID card and boarding pass, as well as your school's admission offer. These are the things you need to be inspected when entering or leaving the country, so you should always carry these documents with you.

As for the other things, mainly when you apply for admission, you need to show the original documents submitted when you applied. These are the materials that will be inspected, and you need to pack them together and bring them with you, and then keep them after you have completed the admission process.
