11. 11 Fees and Scholarships From the AY2008/09 cohort, students in a DDP involving the Engineering programme will pay the prevailing tuition fee of the Faculty/School offering the home course for the first four years of study. For the fifth year of study, in view of limited or no Tuition Grant from the Ministry of Education, the fees payable are pegged as follows: DDPs where one of the degrees is in Engineering or Computing (except for any DDPs involving Law) : two times the prevailing fee However, in view of the financial implications for students, NUS will offer scholarships to help offset 50% of the total tuition fee in the fifth year. In other words, For DDPs where one of the degrees is in Engineering or Computing, students will only need to pay the prevailing tuition fee of the Faculty/School offering the second degree; http://www.nus.edu.sg/registrar/faqs/ddp_cdp_dm.html#ddp12 Fees & Scholarships Fees & Scholarships Double Degree in Engineering & BBA/BBA(Hons)
