Funding support provided to NYP students for overseas programmes could be either specific to the type of overseas trips or targeted at needy students:

• Programme-specific funding. Internships and immersion trips primarily to ASEAN, China and India are supported via external funding of Enterprise Singapore’s Global Ready Talent (GRT) Programme; as well as National Youth Council’s (NYC) Asia-Ready Exposure Programme (AEP).
• Neediness-based funding. 
  • The Financial Assistance Scheme for Overseas Programme (FASOP) utilises MOE’s Opportunity Fund and NYP’s internal funding to make available subsidies to all NYP students. 
  • The Global Entrepreneurship Award (GEA) encourages students to participate in Innovation & Enterprise-related internships in developed countries. The amount of funding is dependent on the student’s family financial status as well as the student’s nationality and overseas programme type.
