Education in Singapore

In Singapore, you can get quality education at various levels, including undergraduate, graduate and doctoral programs, as well as certificate and diploma programs. It is the quality of Singaporean education, which is recognized worldwide, that attracts students here.

Higher education institutions

The university system of Singapore consists of four universities, five polytechnic institutes and a large number of private educational institutions. All private universities in the country accepting foreign students for study have EduTrust certification.
In addition, Singapore has branches of leading foreign universities - in particular, the French University of INSEAD and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, as well as several American business schools (for example, the School of Business of the University of Chicago).
The quality of Singaporean education in the non-state sector is monitored by the Council for Private Institutions. The Council exercises accreditation and control over educational institutions, and also ensures high educational standards.

University entrance

If you are planning to study in Singapore, you will need to start by choosing the university and the academic program of interest. Further, upon admission, the submission of student documents is carried out directly to the educational institution.
Usually, all information about the admission process and the necessary documents can be found on the official website of the university. In addition, through the Hotcourses website, you can directly contact universities and ask all your questions.

 student visa

Before moving to Singapore you will need to obtain a student visa. A visa application is filed with the Singapore Immigration Services. The specific requirements and procedures related to applying for a student visa depend on the chosen program and educational institution.

the cost of living

Singapore has a high quality of life. At the same time, prices here are lower than in Europe, especially for food and clothing.
The main expense items of any student are tuition, housing and meals. On average, the running costs of international students in Singapore are SGD750-2,000 per month. Of course, a lot depends on your lifestyle. So, housing rental, traditionally, costs more than living on the campus of the university, and eating in a restaurant is more expensive than cooking your own meals.

 Recreation and entertainment

A favorite pastime for Singaporeans is shopping. Here on Orchard Road are world-famous shopping malls and luxury boutiques. To enter them is at least out of interest, but the prices there are by no means student prices. Students mainly visit local markets: Lime Flea (open every second Saturday, you can buy vintage clothes and interesting accessories), Clark Quay (works on Sundays, sell funny trinkets) and the famous Thieves Market (open every Sunday, you can find almost everything )
And also, in Singapore they like to go to the cinema, especially since tickets are quite inexpensive, about 10 dollars. In addition to popular Hollywood films, they show good Chinese, Japanese and Korean films with English subtitles.
And, of course, Singapore loves to eat. Head to Chinatown or Little India, where you will find authentic Asian food - very tasty and inexpensive. Be sure to visit the Singapore Gastronomic Festival, which takes place in July, and you are guaranteed a new experience. Here you can taste the best of local cuisine, especially if you stock up on coupons with which you can get free refreshments. Importantly, do not forget to taste the famous chili crab!

For example, I assembled a rifle back in 2015-2016, a helmet and a gas mask - also before starting work on the film. In general, each of the members of our film crew did something with their own hands for the film and the hut, this also applies to the costume of the protagonist: for example, we made boots separately (but jointly) with our operator, having agreed about their length. He did one, and I did the second. The hut itself is located near the Strelna station and is open to visitors, you just need to write to one of us about our intention to visit it, and we will let you know where the key to it is hidden.  - Explain a little to the readers about low quality and folk topics. Have you traveled to Vologda to look at lace and wooden architecture or to Ustyug to see blackening on silver?  - I have long liked the image obtained with the help of any imperfect devices: cameras of the late mid-1990s or phones of the early 2000s. Such pictures seem to allow you to see something...

The popularity of education in the family is gaining momentum and, on the one hand, it greatly simplifies home-study processes, and on the other hand, it serves as a disservice to families taking this path. Many advisers , experts, and specialists have appeared who, for a kind word, and sometimes not at all for free, willingly give out recommendations to the right and left. And the point is not even the advice themselves, which are voiced by these experts, but the fact that the existence of advice in general violates the organic flow of the family's attunement to cognitive processes that are deeply individual for everyone. When a family is faced with difficulties, experts usually have a million ready-made, highly actionable recipes. Someone calls to work with motivation, someone claims that you need to change the textbook (and, of course, knows which one you need), someone thinks that before each lesson, a mother should definitely dance, and someone suggests getting a coach.
