• MOE Tuition Grant — and the bond that comes with it [15]

  It covers a substantial part of the full fee, for the normal length of the degree, and it is what makes the lower fee above possible.在正常学制内承担全额学费的大部分，上面较低的那档学费正是由它实现的。

  In exchange you sign an agreement obliging you to work for a Singapore-registered entity for three years after graduating. It is a contract, not a preference, and it is the single most important thing to understand about studying here.作为交换，你需签署协议，承诺毕业后在新加坡注册的机构工作三年。这是合同义务而非建议，也是理解在新加坡读书最重要的一点。

• NTU: Nanyang Global Scholarship [16]

  The subsidised tuition in full, a living allowance of S$6,500 a year, up to S$2,000 for accommodation, a travel grant and a one-off S$2,000 computer allowance.全额资助后学费、每年 6,500 新元生活津贴、最高 2,000 新元住宿津贴、海外交流补助，以及一次性 2,000 新元电脑津贴。

  Open to all nationalities. It adds no bond of its own — but the Tuition Grant's three years still apply.不限国籍。本奖学金自身不附加服务期，但学费资助的三年义务依然适用。
