Hi,

The next deadline is on the 27th of January. It's the scholarship priority deadline.
Admissions happen on a rolling basis, they will process your application whenever you submit it.

Hello, in the application form in Test details, when I chose GMAT, it asked for Reference Number (Registration / Test Report Form / Account). Now in GMAT, there is a GMAT ID and an appointment number, so which one should I give? Also, can anyone please tell me the questions in the referee report if they know? And is there a chat group for NUS class of 2023 that I can join?

Hi everyone,
I am applying in Round 1 (Male, 25, Indian). Apart from the usual essays, there is also these 2 extra short essays you need to write if we are applying for a scholarship.
1. Please indicate the type of Scholarship you are applying for, and describe your fit for this scholarship.
2. Briefly share how you plan to “pay it forward” as a student and alum of the programme if you were awarded.
Can anyone guide how to approach these, how do we know which scholarship is apt for us ?
And as a student how can we pay it forward ?

Need help with these

Hi, Can someone please help here?
For my referees, the link to enter recommendations expired when they were trying to enter, after 14 days.
Can someone tell on how to proceed with that now?

Hey, you will need to mail the admission team. I dont think there is anything that can be done from your side.

Yes. It's not mandatory though. I did not tell my recommender to upload anything.

Hi rohitsubr, Have u applied for NUS-2021 intake, Do we have to write a separate essay for Scholarship?
I was under impression that there is no separate essay for scholarship but during filing the form I came across this prompt
'FOR SCHOLARSHIP APPLICANTS
ONLY (250 words):1.Please indicate the type of Scholarship you are applying for, and describe your fit for this scholarship."

Any help on this will be useful for me.
Nikhil please help.

T&R,
Gaurav

Hey GAURAV1113, Yes I applied for the 2021 intake. Even I was under the impression that the merit-based scholarship does not require any additional essay.

I left mine blank in the application. But now that I read the below link carefully
- https://mba.nus.edu.sg/en-SG/fees-finan ... olarships/

I am having doubts. I think even for the merit-based scholarships an essay is required. Not sure. Can anyone else answer this?

Hi,
The application form has 2 essays for scholarships for full time applicants.
Since I was unsure of which one to write, I have written essays for both to just to be on the safer side.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

There are 2 questions for scholarships:

1. Please indicate the type of Scholarship you are applying for, and describe your fit for this scholarship. (250 words / 1500 char)
2. Briefly share how you plan to “pay it forward” as a student and alum of the programme if you were awarded. (250 words / 1500 char)

Both are to be answered for scholarships.

You can upload a scanned copy of a recommendation letter I think. What did you end up doing?

I find the following on the website. Why is this confusing? :) rohitsubr GAURAV1113

Quote:
To be considered for a scholarship, candidates must complete the scholarship essay question in the online application and submit a completed application by the scholarship consideration round.

Yes, pay slip or something that shows bank account/balance. The admissions team wrote to me "We just want to make sure that you are not financially bankrupt" when I asked what kind of document they want.
