Study in Singapore: Your Path to Academic & Residency Success
As families around the world search for high-quality, low-risk overseas education options, Singapore has increasingly become the ideal choice for many Chinese families, thanks to its world-class education system and clear pathways to residency.
Why choose Singapore?
🌏 World-Leading Education
Though small, Singapore consistently ranks among the best in global education. In the 2025 QS World University Rankings, National University of Singapore (NUS) ranks 8th, and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) ranks 15th, maintaining a strong global presence.
🧠 Bilingual Advantage + International Curriculum
Full-English usage builds a strong foundation for global university entry while preserving Mandarin proficiency. This bilingual, global outlook prepares students to thrive in the future.
💼 Strong Career Prospects
Singapore is home to numerous multinational companies, offering abundant job opportunities. Graduates of government schools may apply for Permanent Residency (PR) after national exams, while private school graduates can apply for Employment Passes (EP)—and later, PR—paving the way for long-term development in Singapore.
Diverse Educational Pathways for Different Needs
✅ Public Schools – Elite track from primary school to junior college via standardised exams such as AEIS, PSLE, O-Level, and A-Level. Suitable for high-achieving, goal-driven students to achieve globally recognised degrees with affordable tuition.
✅ Private Institutions – Flexible entry points and curriculum, ideal for bridging to public schools or pursuing overseas degrees.
Hanbridge Institute, a 4 year EduTrust-certified private institution, partners with the University of Suffolk (UK) to offer fully English-taught bachelor’s and master’s programmes. Academic quality, curriculum, and digital platforms align with the UK home campus. Hanbridge’s safe and convenient location near Sentosa makes it a preferred choice for families. Additionally, graduates enjoy strong prospects for employment, PR, and further studies in Western countries.

Compared to the often exorbitant tuition fees in the US or UK, Singapore offers exceptional value as a leading education hub in Asia. For students who narrowly miss out on top Gaokao placements due to policy or resource constraints, this path may provide a second chance to excel.
For families with long-term plans, studying abroad is not only an educational investment but also a strategic move for residency planning.
Graduates from private institutions can apply for work passes (EP), and those with master’s degrees may receive bonus points in the visa application process.

These results highlight the importance of aligning study fields with industry demand.
