Frequently asked questions
If my tuition fees are fully covered by a scholarship, can I apply for living allowance only under the Study Loan (SL)?
Yes, you may apply for a living allowance under the SL if your scholarship does not provide any allowance.
Do Tuition Fee Loan (TFL) and Study Loan (SL) cover Compulsory Miscellaneous Fees (CMF) and hostel fees?
TFL and SL do not cover CMF and hostel fees. However, students may consider applying for a living allowance under the SL which can provide up to S$3,600 per year.
Do Tuition Fee Loan (TFL) and Study Loan (SL) cover full tuition fees for Singapore Permanent Residents (SPR) and International Students (IS)?
No. TFL and SL will not cover the tuition fees of SPR and IS in full as the loan amount is capped at the subsidised tuition fees for Singapore Citizens (SC).
