Student Protection Scheme (SPS) and Standard Student Contract

SAA has in place a Student Protection Scheme as stipulated by the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) by way of the NTUC Income Student Tuition Fee Insurance. The Student Tuition Fee Insurance protects the insured student against the following events:

  1. Loss of tuition fees paid in advance by the insured student to SAA and not refunded, if the student cannot start or complete his course as a result of SAA becoming insolvent or being required by the Singapore authorities to stop operations.
  2. SAA's failure to pay sum awarded by Singapore courts to the insured student, where such award relates to a dispute between SAA and insured student on tuition fees paid by the insured student to SAA.
  3. Complimentary S$10,000 benefit covering the insured student's accidental death or total permanent disability by accident.

The amount payable to an insured student is subject to maximum limits that are specified in his Certificate of Student Insurance. The period of insurance will cover the entire duration of the course enrolled by the insured student. A personal Certificate of Student Insurance will be issued to each insured student to confirm that his/her insurance cover is in place.

International students who are applying for student's pass for the first time with SAA need to be covered under SPS and are required to enter into a Standard Student Contract, which is recommended by CASE.
