Yes, whether it is NUS, NTU or DUKE - studying Medicine is a costly course. There are bursary and scholarship available to help those students who required financial support. These financial aids only cover 80 percent of your fees, you have to fork out another 20 percent of the cost to cover for your 4 or 5 years of pocket money for foods, hall lodging, medical accessories, attires, laptop, transportation etc... These are extra cost you have to consider. That's why some parents have to downgrade their house, sort out their financial standing to help support their children through their education. Parents and child have to plan beforehand if really medicine is what they want to pursue or take up other health alliance courses instead.

Bursary can only probably support 10% of the entire fees for Duke-NUS medical school, not forgetting daily expenses. Getting Scholarship is easier said than done. The remaining 90% of the school fees will depend on yourself to pay. This is the more realistic situation.

What’s wrong with the student getting a tuition/bank loan? We used to do that when we were undergrads ourselves. Since when are parents oblige to pay for varsity tuition fees?

We have parents and kids herein that had gone through the experiences of coping with the university tuition fees. Regardless of medicine or other courses, one has to start planning ahead and discuss it together.

It's good if parent and child have worked out a financial plan earlier of how to cope with paying for the university tuition fees. There are no fix rules as to who should be responsible for it. The benefits of parental support is that it helps lessen the child from financial burden and the load off from him to concentrate on studying well. Each family has their own financial standing. Some can provide the child with full support whereas others have to obtain a scholarship, bursary or loan together with their parent partial financial support.

Completing a medical degree program at Duke NUS can be an expensive endeavor, but there are several strategies you can use to cope with the tuition fees:

Seek Financial Aid: Duke NUS offers a range of financial aid options such as scholarships, loans, and grants for students who demonstrate financial need. You can check with the school's financial aid office to determine your eligibility and apply for financial assistance.

Apply for External Scholarships: There are many external scholarship programs available for medical students that can help you offset the cost of tuition. Do some research and apply for relevant scholarships to help reduce your expenses.

Consider Working While Studying: Many students work part-time while studying to help cover their expenses. You could explore part-time job opportunities or paid internships that align with your interests and schedule.

Create a Budget: Create a budget that outlines your income and expenses, including tuition, living expenses, and other necessary costs. This can help you manage your finances more effectively and ensure that you have enough money to cover your expenses.

Look for Opportunities to Save Money. Small savings can add up over time and help you manage your expenses more effectively.

Remember that coping with tuition fees is a challenge that many students face, and there are resources and strategies available to help you manage your expenses and complete your degree program.

I can understand that the costly tuition fees can be a major concern, no one should be disadvantaged from reaching their dreams or goals because of financial reasons.

I would suggest that any potential applicants speak to the school and I am sure they would be more than happy to work something out with you.

The financial aid options are diverse so you can be assured that you will be able to afford the course no matter your financial standing. Hence, don’t be afraid to take the leap of faith and pursue your passion!
