Accommodation
Whilst most universities will offer some on-campus accommodation, usually in the way of residence halls or a student hostel, due to the huge amount of international students in Singapore it is in high demand and can be difficult to secure. Where rooms in residence halls are available, on average monthly rent ranges from SGD 155-SGD 800.
Most students opt for off-campus housing organized by student housing agencies, stay in student hostels or rent accommodation privately. There are no restrictions on non-citizens renting residential units in Singapore. To stay in The Singapore University of Technology and Design’s student hostel, international students must obtain a valid student pass from the Immigration and Custom Authority. Monthly rent comes to SGD 265 per month, and you’ll need to also pay a deposit equivalent to one month’s rent when you move in that you’ll get back once you leave. Each student receives a subsidy of SGD 15 for utilities, with any excess costs divided amongst the students in the apartment. Students pay these excess fees monthly.
Hostels offer single to four-bedded rooms, and provide meals, laundry services, television and internet, and are generally priced at around SGD 140-SGD 440 per month.
Whilst prices of rental properties vary depending on the type of room and its location, living in subsidised public housing will generally be your cheapest option. Within self-contained estates that sometimes include supermarkets, schools and usually a metro station, the estimated monthly cost of a room in a Housing Development Board flat will cost around SGD 400-SGD 1,000 per month. There may be a waiting list for a HDB property, and utilities are generally not be included in monthly rent of either HBD or privately rented properties. Privately rented flats will be your most expensive option, with rent usually starting at around SGD 1000 per month.
