Universities & admissions Questions

September is the main MBBS intake at most Mauritius institutions, with applications typically open from January to June. Some colleges offer February and August intakes, with windows of around September to November and March to May. Timelines depend on the college, so check each one.

No. The MOE Tuition Grant at NUS is a Singapore Government subsidy for international students in full-time undergraduate courses, so self-funded master's courses do not get it. The NUS MBA fees are the same for everyone. Check the official NUS pages for the latest details.

The MOE Tuition Grant at NUS typically requires you to work for a Singapore company or organisation for 3 years after graduating. If you do not want to work in Singapore, you pay the full fee for the whole degree. Medicine and Dentistry bonds are longer. Check the official pages.

You will normally need an admission application form, transcripts and degree certificates, a CV, passport or valid ID, a statement of purpose, recommendation letters, a research proposal for PhD applicants where applicable, language proof if required and any extra documents the institution requests. Requirements vary by institution.

Because UNESCO is intergovernmental, only applications declared by the National Commission for UNESCO are considered. The respective Chinese university carries out the selection, with diversity and gender equality considered when approving nominees. Selected fellows are communicated through UNESCO. Check the official UNESCO page for details.

Admitted students at top schools such as Yale or Harvard typically report GMAT scores over 700 or GRE scores around 165 in both sections. English tests usually fall around IELTS 6.5 to 7.0, TOEFL 100 to 109 or PTE 65 to 75. Check each school's official page.

Direct admission lets an accepted student begin the MBA in the upcoming intake. Deferred admission secures a future place but usually requires professional experience, commonly two to five years, before you join. Both typically still need test scores, English proof and visa readiness, so check each school.

No, an offer of admission to a Canadian master's program does not mean you will receive funding. Some entrance awards may be considered automatically after acceptance, but a scholarship may need a separate funding application. Options vary by university, course and whether your master's is course-based or thesis-based.
