Total tuition fees for engineering and medicine/dentistry is S$33,570 and S$109,510 respectively current year.

That's before tution grant which will cover about three quarter of the fees.
Think doesn't matter for engineering but for medicine need to serve in MOH for 5 years to pay back the grant. Can leave earlier if you can pay back in cash. For dentistry if there is no shortage of dentist at a particular time, can leave the service earlier without paying back the grant.

nybrdad, you are correct! Tuition grants for engineering and medicine/dentistry are $26,400 and $89,000 respectively. For medicine, needs to serve MOH for 5yrs and for dentistry is 4 years.

[quote=\"hipomum\"]Newbie here, have been reading the threads & am glad to find so many helpful moms out there, willing to share their experiences :xedfingers: I saw many posts regarding RGS & NYGH, but did not hear much bat NJC. Anybody whose child sat for NJC's GAT care to share? Heard the English paper was tough..... :frustrated: btw does anyone also know when notification will be out for the camp n interview? Hope to hear some input :thankyou:

Hi hipomum, my DD went for the NJC HAST. Yes...she also commented that the reading comprehension was super tough...her exact words \"dun noe wat the passages r talking abt\"...the other 2 papers, Maths Reasoning & Abstract Reasoning was easy though. The Phase 2A Activity & Phase 2B interview will be tentatively held on 20th & 27 Aug respectively....so my guess is they will notify shortlisted candidates a week before 20th Aug....so tat's another 2 weeks of waiting..

Guess they may need to do some rearrangement if 27/8 becomes a public holiday for the presidential election.[/quote]Admin from NJC informed that as they need to send HAST to Australia for marking, results and notification for next round will take some time. I think can expect to hear from NJC only after National Day hols. So, stay cool and sit tight!

Oh cestmoi, that's good news!

My ds applied using Grade 8 piano but have not received any news yet
He is keen to do MEP but there are not that co-ed/boy schools that offer MEP.
His grades are usually in the 70+ to 80+ range....
*Sigh*

Thks Edureach. So how much would it costs for ivy leag universities?

You dam ambitious! I do not know much about fees for ivy league as my kids unlikely to make the academic cut base on their current standards. Think for medicine is a post-grad degree whereas for engineering, max is a few made it from Singapore each year. Unable to provide further information.[/quote] no like that la ..... Is ok to have dream right .... :rotflmao:

FYI, especially undergrad programmes in Havard, even among our top scholars, a handful made it there. Maybe yours could do it? A realistic chance is to pursue post-grad in Havard, it’s relatively much easier.
