Please note that scholars under the Undergraduate Scholarship for PRC Students will have to seek approval for overseas job posting. In order to seek approval for overseas job posting, scholars will have to submit to National University of Singapore (NUS) the following documents:
1) an official request letter from your employer with the reasons and terms for the overseas job posting, stating the start date and the end date of the overseas job posting
2) an undertaking letter from your employer stating that you will return to Singapore upon completion of the overseas posting and they will inform NUS of any changes to your employment status during the overseas job posting
In addition, to count your overseas job posting towards serving your bond, you will have to fulfill one of the three conditions below:
1) continue to be under the payroll of the Singapore-Based company
2) be paying income taxes for the period of employment overseas
3) still receiving CPF contribution by the company for the period of employment overseas.
If you are unable to fulfill any of the conditions above, you would be required to appeal for bond deferment (maximum period of three years if approved) and you would most likely be required to place a Banker’s Guarantee of your outstanding liquidated damages amount with a local bank if your appeal is approved.
