Student Pass

You need the Student’s Pass from the Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) if an educational institution in Singapore accepts you for a full-time study and you are an international student.

Application Requirements

  • 19 years old and below
    • If you are 19 years old or younger when you apply and want to attend a full-time course of an approved Private Education Organisation (PEO), the Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) will process your application directly.
  • Above 19 years old
    • If you are older than 19 years when you apply and want to attend a vocational, commercial, language or fine arts non-graduate/ postgraduate degree course (including the University of London (UOL) tuition programme), the Embassy may interview you.
    • The requirements and procedures for applying the student pass vary depending on the type of educational institution that you plan to study.

Processing Time

Interviews may affect the processing time, which can vary from 2 to 4 months depending on the case.

Documents You Need to Provide

You must provide the original, notarised and photocopy copies of these documents:

  • Your birth certificate
  • Your highest education certificate and academic results/transcripts
  • Your or your parents’ bank statements showing fixed deposits of at least RMB 150,000 for 3 months after the interview
  • Your overseas study plan and programme, signed and dated by you
