For students admitted to the CIA Bachelor of Business Administration in Food Business Management program through the SIT partnership in AY2019–2020, the annual tuition fee is fixed at the AY2019-–2020 rate for the duration of their degree program. The Ministry of Education (MOE), Singapore provides tuition grants that cover a substantial portion of the full tuition fees to eligible students. Students who receive the tuition grant are required to pay only the subsidized tuition fee. More information is available at https://www.singaporetech.edu.sg

Payment of Fees
Please note the following:
- Students who do not sign the tuition grant agreement or who are not eligible for the tuition grant will have to pay non-subsidized tuition fee.
- Fees (tuition fees and compulsory miscellaneous fees) are payable by students on a semester basis.
- Students who withdraw or apply for leave of absence from SIT after the start of a semester are liable for the payment of fees (tuition and miscellaneous fees).
- National Servicemen whose enrollment in the CIA Singapore is delayed by one or two years because of National Service commitment are allowed to enjoy a one- or two-year lag in the payment of the subsidized tuition fee. The fee payable will depend on the year the student accepted a place at the CIA. For example, if a student was offered admission in AY2017 and accepted the offer, the student pays the subsidized tuition fee applicable for AY2017 when the student joins the CIA Singapore in AY2019. If the student had re-applied for a new program in AY2018, the student will still pay the subsidized tuition fee applicable for AY2017 regardless of the second application outcome.
- A late payment charge of S$50 (after GST) will be imposed on students for overdue payments.
