    Eligibility Guidelines for MOE Subsidy

    (1) Students with a Higher Degree Qualification

    Students (all nationalities) who already hold a higher degree qualification and wish to pursue
    a second graduate programme of the same or lower level will be eligible for the MOE subsidy
    provided the fees for their first higher degree qualification attained were not subsidised by
    the Singapore government or sponsored by a Singapore government agency (such as
    scholarships offered by the Ministries, Public Service Commission and Statutory Boards for
    both their local and overseas graduate programmes).

    Students who have previously enjoyed government subsidies/scholarships in a graduate


    programme will not be eligible for MOE subsidy1 in another graduate programme at the same
    or lower level. Instead, such students will be liable to pay a higher fee without MOE subsidy
    for the graduate programme that they now wish to undertake. For example, students who
    had previously enjoyed subsidies/scholarships in a Master’s programme, and have attained
    the Master’s degree will not be eligible for subsidy in another programme at Master’s degree
    or lower level. For such students who are upgraded from Master’s to PhD, if their date of
    upgrading is after Instructional Week 2 of the semester, the subsidy will only be effective the
    following semester. In addition, if they are upgraded to a programme which has a combination
    of Master’s and PhD candidature, they will not be eligible to enjoy subsidy during the Master’s
    candidature.

    (2) Transferred or Readmitted Students

    With effect from Semester 2 AY2008/09, students (all nationalities) who did not complete an
    earlier graduate programme and are now transferred or readmitted to a programme at the
    same level within NUS or across Autonomous Universities2 will be eligible for MOE subsidy up
    to the maximum course duration for the new programme less the equivalent number of
    semester(s) 3 of government subsidies/sponsorships received for the previous programme(s).
    For readmission to programmes of different levels, please refer to (1) Students with a Higher
    Degree Qualification above.

    Note:
    International students admitted from Semester 1 of AY2015/16 are no longer eligible for MOE Subsidy and would
    be required to pay full fees unless they are on MOE PGR Scholarship or sign the MOE Service Obligation Agreement.

    1 Students who are not eligible for MOE subsidy are also not eligible for some other scholarships, such as, the
    President’s Graduate Fellowship, NUS Research Scholarship, Tuition Fee Allowance, NUS Graduate School for
    Integrative Sciences & Engineering Scholarship, etc.

    2 Autonomous Universities refer to NUS, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore Management
    University (SMU), Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT)
    and Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS).

    3 For graduate coursework programmes done on a part-time basis, the subsidy for two semesters of part-time
    studies is equivalent to one semester of full-time studies. For graduate research programmes, there is no
    differentiation in subsidy between full-time and part-time studies.
