At a glance
Current SIT ASEAN Undergraduate Scholarship guide covering citizenship, funding, CAP renewal, admission-based consideration, repayment, and the separate MOE Tuition Grant work obligation.
Q: What does the SIT ASEAN Undergraduate Scholarship currently provide?
A: SIT lists subsidised tuition fees, a S$5,800 annual living allowance, a S$3,000 annual accommodation allowance, and a one-time S$1,750 laptop allowance.
Last reviewed: 19 July 2026. SIT's current page does not publish a new application deadline. It says eligible admission applicants are considered for the scholarship and shortlisted candidates are informed of outcomes by mid-July. Confirm the next cycle with SIT before relying on that timing.
Quick answer
The SIT ASEAN Undergraduate Scholarship supports outstanding freshmen who are citizens of ASEAN member countries other than Singapore and are applying to a full-time SIT undergraduate degree. Consideration happens through the undergraduate admission application.
The scholarship itself has no service bond, but recipients must take up the MOE Tuition Grant. That grant carries a separate three-year work obligation for Singapore Permanent Residents and international students.
Current public status
SIT does not publish a separate scholarship opening or closing date on the current award page. It says:
- all eligible students applying for undergraduate admission to SIT are considered
- suitability is assessed as part of the admissions process
- shortlisted candidates are informed of scholarship outcomes by mid-July
At the review date, mid-July had passed. The page does not say whether a later intake is open, closed, or not yet announced. Use the live admissions route and ask SIT if the scholarship status is unclear.
The bottom of SIT's page also contains a generic How To Apply section saying that public bursary, donated bursary, and scholarship applications would commence in July 2022 for matriculated students. That legacy instruction is not the current freshman AUS process described above and should not be reused for a new applicant.
Who is eligible
SIT publishes five requirements. Candidates must:
- be citizens of an ASEAN member country other than Singapore
- have strong leadership qualities and potential
- present good co-curricular activity records
- possess outstanding high school results
- be applying for admission to a full-time undergraduate degree at SIT
SIT's current country list includes Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste, and Vietnam, with Singapore excluded for this scholarship.
The award page does not publish qualification-specific grade cutoffs, a minimum admissions score, an income test, a service record, or a separate community-service requirement. It states citizenship, not a rule that can be inferred solely from an applicant's permanent-residence status.
