Fee Protection Scheme
Safeguarding your course fees under Singapore’s EduTrust requirements.
Fee Protection Scheme (FPS)
Protecting the interests of our students
The Fee Protection Scheme (FPS) serves to protect the students’ fees in the event a Private Education Institution (PEI) is unable to continue operations due to insolvency, and/or regulatory closure.
The FPS also protects the student if the PEI fails to pay penalties or return fees to the student arising from judgments made against it by the Singapore courts.
FPS is compulsory for both local and international students taking courses at The School except for courses with waiver granted by Skills and Workforce Development Agency (SWDA).
What Is Not Covered
FPS assurance of payable fees are protected under this scheme, except for the following
- Course application fees;
- Prevailing goods and services tax (GST);
- Miscellaneous fees;
- FPS insurance premium; and
- Examination fees collected less than 2 months before examination date.
Coverage Information
The new student will receive an email from our FPS provider after the school has purchased the Fee Protection coverage for the student’s course fee paid.
FPS is not applicable to students taking courses with a duration of not more than one month or 50 hours.
