I hope you receive a scholarship+stipend this year but if you do defer too, you could spend the time admission till next year applying for external scholarships. I see. Hope to see you around the campus anyway, in the future! And thank you! I emailed them on Friday but haven't yet heard back from them, so I'll decide after they respond. Deferring will definitely allow more time to build up finances too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaedubs Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 2 hours ago, cee123 said: did they guys give you deadlines to confirm? 9 April. Perhaps they send out offers in batches I'm thinking. It's such a short timeline to think about the offer , less than 2 weeks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they send the fin award in a separate letter or it should’ve been mentioned in the offer of admission ? All the best to all waiting out ?? Hi, did you accept the offer?

Thanks Yes, and I'd recommend calling to ensure that your message has been received, especially if the deadline is coming up soon for you. Call the number of the admissions officer that has been assigned to you if possible (google search). On 4/6/2020 at 11:47 AM, kaedubs said: I see.

kaedubs Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Good news for Singapore students, as per the website: "NUS will freeze tuition fee increases for Singapore Citizens enrolled in government-subsidised postgraduate programmes in AY2020. This will help mitigate the impact of costs to Singaporean households during these challenging times. Postgraduate tuition fees follow a fee schedule that is set at the year of admission, with pre-planned annual increases over the course duration. With the freeze in tuition fee increases, Singaporean postgraduate students from the AY2020/21 intake will pay the AY2019 fees in their first year of study. The fee schedule for the remaining course duration will be reviewed before the start of AY2021." cee123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamy Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) 3 hours ago, Dewy96 said: Any update on MIA applications, anyone? Until now, there's no reply from admissions. Even I am waiting for the result as I am a prospective student of MPP. You should expect the outcome during the last week of April 2020 at earliest, because Singapore is locked down, and the admissions might not have the access from home OR there are certain rules and regulations that needs to be done in the faculty or institute itself. Else, you might want to send them an email inquiring about it. Good luck!!! Edited April 10, 2020 by Jamy Dewy96 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sense8 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I know a few people who have received an offer during first batch, but none of them a scholarship. I ponder why. Coz many people with similar profiles got both offer + scholarship in previous years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same question too, so I doubt that the scholarship policy may have changed this year or even been cancelled due to the virus impact. sense8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
