Notes:

  • The bursary for part-time diploma students is disbursed on a semester basis.
  • Successful applicants must have a PayNow account (link to student’s NRIC) in order to receive the bursary disbursement.
  • Bursary is tenable for one academic year only. Students need to apply only once in an academic year (AY). Students are encouraged to apply bursary in first semester of AY (ie semester starts in Apr) as successful applicants in first semester of AY will continue to get the same quantum of bursary in second semester of AY (ie semester starts in Oct) if he/she still meets the criteria then.
