SINGA 2027 Deadlines: Dates Still TBC
As of 6 October 2026, no live official A*STAR or NUS/NTU page publishes a close date for the 2027 SINGA intakes. Here is the historical pattern, what is not a SINGA deadline, and how to check.

Status on 6 October 2026
This guide covers the 2027 intake. No live official A*STAR or NUS/NTU page we checked on 22 September or 6 October 2026 published a 1 December 2026 close date, so treat every calendar you see on a blog as unverified. Confirm the open and close dates on the current official A*STAR scholarships site or by writing to singa_enquiries@hq.a-star.edu.sg. If A*STAR republishes a dedicated SINGA page, that page wins.
Based only on the 2023 brochure, the August 2027 intake would close around 1 December 2026, and a January 2028 intake (A*STAR and NTU only) around 1 June 2027. Neither date appears on a live official page — confirm before you plan around them.
What a 2023 official brochure said
The A*STAR SINGA brochure marked accurate as of 1 November 2023 listed two recurring close dates. That is a pattern, not a 2026–27 calendar. Do not treat the table below as your deadline.
| Intake (historical) | Brochure close date | Hosts named in that line |
|---|---|---|
| January (the following year) | 1 June | A*STAR and NTU only |
| August (the following year) | 1 December | Not limited in that line |
Shortlisting, in the same brochure: results are released in about 12 weeks at the earliest after the close date, and only shortlisted applicants are emailed.
What is not a SINGA deadline
NTU's general research admission guide uses 31 January (August intake) and 31 July (January intake). That is NTU admission, not a SINGA close date.
The live AGS page uses 1 November–1 February and 1 June–10 August. Those are AGS dates.
The International Awards page lists ARAP (1 June and 1 December) and SRAP (1 May and 1 November). Those are attachment programmes, not SINGA.
How to check the 2027 window
How to apply →- Open the official A*STAR scholarships listing and the International Awards page, and look for SINGA.
- If the page is still missing, email singa_enquiries@hq.a-star.edu.sg and ask which 2027 intakes are open and the close date in Singapore time.
- Ignore aggregator pages that print “1 December 2026” without an A*STAR or university citation you can open.
