Yes, there are government scholarships for Indian students to study in Singapore.

- ASEAN Scholarship: Offered by Singapore’s Ministry of Education (MOE), open to students from ASEAN countries, including India. Application timelines vary by country and year.
- Singapore International Graduate Award (SINGA): Fully funded for PhD students, covering tuition, monthly stipend (SGD 2,200 - 2,700), airfare, and settlement allowance.
- MOE Tuition Grant Scheme: Subsidizes tuition for international students at local universities, but requires a three-year service bond with a Singapore-registered company after graduation.

Scholarship details and eligibility are subject to change each year. For guidance on application timelines and requirements, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
