Subsidies are available for students who require funding support to purchase a PLD.
Subsidies will be provided for Singapore Citizens who need support, particularly those whose Gross Household Income (GHI) is below $4,400 or Per Capita Income (PCI) is below $1,100.
Please note that it is compulsory for all students on the MOE Financial Assistance Scheme (FAS) to use their Edusave to pay for any remaining sums due for the PLD, after subsidies have been granted.
