Singha Scholarship

When does the SINGA application open and what is the deadline for
applications?
There are 2 admission points for SINGA per academic year - August and January
intakes. For admission in August, application is open after the closing date of the
previous intake to 1 January of the current year. (E.g., for August 2016 intake,
application is open after the closing date of January 2016 intake, i.e. 2 June 2015 to 1
January of 2016.) For admission in January, application is open after the closing date
of the previous intake to 1 June of the previous year. (E.g., for January 2017 intake,
application is open after the closing date of August 2016 intake, i.e. 2 January 2016 to
1 June of 2016.)
