   Please note that Non-graduating students (holding Student’s Pass) are not eligible for employment.
   
   Immigration Matters
   
   For incoming international students, the University will apply for a Student’s Pass Application Number on your behalf once you are offered admission to NUS. You will then be given this Application Number via email (as provided in your online application) to access the Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority [ICA] web-based Student’s Pass Online Application and Registration [SOLAR] system to verify the accuracy of your information and submit eForm 16 online as part of your Student's Pass application procedure. Please ensure that you read and follow the instructions carefully in the SOLAR system before you proceed to verify your details in eForm 16. ICA will review and process your student pass application once you have submitted the eForm 16. More information on student pass application can be viewed here.
   Once the Student's Pass application has been approved, you will receive an In-Principle Approval [IPA] letter, which will be given to you during the registration exercise at NUS. If you are from a visa-required country, your IPA letter will be mailed to your address (as provided in your online application) as it will serve as a single-trip entry visa when you arrive in Singapore.
   
   Please note that candidates without the IPA will not be granted the Student’s Pass later. After your registration, your IPA letter will be stamped with the required period before you proceed to convert your social visit pass into a Student’s Pass.
   
   All incoming international students who are applying for Student’s Pass for 6 months and above are required to do a medical examination (details will be provided in your offer package). Please also note that Non-Exchange students are required to read at least 12 MCs worth of modules per semester or pursuing full-time research in order to qualify as a full-time student and be issued with a Student’s Pass.
   
   Please note that your offer of admission is conditional upon your successful application of your Student's Pass.
