  • Planning to move to Singapore? Here are things you need to know to prepare for your life in Singapore. After one year since I moved, I am finally sharing all my advice and tips if you are considering Singapore to be your next home.
    I moved to Singapore in the middle of the pandemic to study and pursue an MBA degree. It has been quite a journey and I've learned a lot, not only about myself but as well as the country's culture and lifestyle.
    If you are also thinking of living and studying in Singapore, I highly recommend that you attend ‪@singaporeinstituteofmanage6884‬'s upcoming virtual event, SIM Learners’ Eduverse this November 12-19, 2022!

    I realised that eating out in SG or food in general is pretty cheap since I left the country back in 2016 and moved here in NZ. That $13 laksa would cost $25 here! I miss SG food and will be visiting next January. Can’t wait 😊

    Good luck 🤞🍀. You moved to sg, me I moved out 😊. So happy to finally left the island 🏝️ and went to neighbouring country, it was so stressful staying in SG, crowded, people face are always stressed, everywhere queuing because everyone going to the same places, so hot 🥵, and I don't mention rent or prices😮. I felt that everyone is a robot living in their bubble.

    Hey Sophie. Thank you so much for making this video. I am also thinking of doing a Master's in Singapore (probably at SMU) but am concerned about costs. Can I ask how much you are paying for tuition and rent? Where are some of the cheaper places to live?

    • @sparklefreeze87
      @sparklefreeze87 Год назад +6

      SMU is in the heart of the city, so unless the university can offer you preferential rates on student accoms nearby, you're going to have to commute at least 30/45mins away for affordable rent outside the city center. Public transport is very affordable, but do bear in mind that trains to downtown can be really packed during peak hours, so I would definitely avoid 9am lectures. Another SMU specific thing is that you can expect to pay more for food as well since it's in the city center.. conversely, it also means you have far more choice and variety. In terms of tuition, SMU is American-styled, so the cost is pretty similar. For rental, if you look at our train map as a rough guide, any neighborhood station outside the ring of the Yellow Circle Line will generally be more affordable with some exceptions. SMU is served by City Hall/ Dhoby Ghaut/ Bencoolen and Bras Basah stations so you can gauge your travel time.
