Anyway i just calculated,

the total tuition fees for 3 years in Singapore Maritime Academy (SMA) comes up to about SGD57,967.38. That's RM139,121.71.

The Singapore Government offers a tuition grants of SGD13,600 per year. That's SGD40,800 for 3 years. Less tuition grant, 3 years in SMA would cost RM41201.71. The only requirement is graduates must work in Singapore for 3 years.

A further tuition fee loan (70% of tuition fees), charge at 4% interest per annum, can be taken from a local bank. That would take the total sum payable during the 3 years down to RM12,360.51.

A FURTHER interest-free loan, 25% of the remaining sum, can be taken from the school. That brings the course fees down to RM9270.38.

Quite cheap to study Marine Engineering in Singapore huh?

quite cheap.. but whats the guarentee u will be granted those loans? and does it include logding and food?

RM9270.38 during the 3 years of studies. In the long run you would need to pay the loan interests, it would be more than RM40,000 (loan + loan interests).
You can definitely get the tuition grant from the government and tuition fees loan from the local bank. It does not include lodging and food, just tuition fees alone. Living costs in Singapore is about S$1000/month. I'll be staying in Johor Bahru. So S$500/month will be sufficient for me.
Any chances i can get in touch with the ex-ALAM lecturer? smile.gif

most people cannot afford that amount of money.. update us about the lifestyle when u get there..

whoa..
i nvr thought that this thread bcame so big..well may b bcz of lack of exposure in malaysia..
btw..i graduated in alam in 2007 now works with MISC.. taking nautical study..
it seems that u guys r really wanna join this career,..but it's not for every one job's btw..
*
compared to any other career related thread, this one is significantly small, shows that only few that are really interested are pursuing this career line... i agree with u, its not for everyone, some of them are going to regret..

man, why would they regret?

its a boring type of work?

i tot its adventurous

it is kind of boring actually.. lock urself in ur room for 2 weeks with nothing more than a pc and ps3.. its something like that.. lol .. people who cannot stand quiet lifestyle tend to b more stressed, must b able to endure loneliness..

the one who regrets the most are the ones who went for the big money, without knwig wt they got themselves into...
