r/Suss

Hello all. I'm a full-time worker, and currently considering taking a PT degree at SUSS and I want to know the rough estimate I need to pay for fees. I'm looking to join a couese in the school of humanities probably.

Can I know how fees are calculated? I read the tuition fees list on their website and it gauges about 15k for the whole course I guess? Or is that per year? 😂 I also saw some ppl here say its by credit. So I guess it differs month to month or semester to semester? Anyway, I'd love to know roughly an average for how much it may cost each payment as I don't wish to take loans and currently saving up before I apply.

hey guys, im interested to take ELT 356 (children book writing) but i read that if you want this course, you have to take ELT 255 (children's lit) or 256 (Creative writing: prose)

and before taking 256/255, you also have to take ELT 107 / 201. (understanding poetry) Can someone tell me is it true and how are the courses like!

btw I’m working full time and only have a diploma ^^

Hi PT BA seniors, I have a question. I was from a science diploma and 0 coding experience. To enter BA, is it a requirement to have Coding Experience?

Current status: I have passed the interview and received a "Offer of Admissions" email in mid-March. However, I have not received any "Acceptance of Offer" email. I previously submitted the Interview Questionaire and there was a statement which mentioned "If you have not learned any computer programming languages, please attend any of the following online courses and send your certificates to the Programme Admission Team as soon as possible. ".

I am currently still learning a coding course on Udemy, and I still have many chapters to clear before I can get the cert. If a coding cert is required, any other short coding courses you would recommend?

Thank you! 🙏🙏

Currently Y2 and doing a PT degree. So it’s been a year since I have started and I am still taking 4 mods a sem as opposed to finding a job.

Truth be told, I initially wanted a FT degree but i didn’t make the cut hence I took up PT instead. However I have not been finding a job due to the lack of motivation to do so, and also partially because I want to fully focus on my mods so I’m trying to max out my CUs per sem.

This has been eating at me because I do feel abit ‘useless(?)’ for lack of a better term, when I compare myself to my peers because I am sitting at home while others are earning and building something up for themselves. I’m not looking for solutions but rather just someone who has gone through something similar and feels the same way.

Hello, to my surprise I actually got offered nus chs as well (preferred major SW). I'm kind of stuck in the middle between the two choices and can't decide which uni to accept. Would appreciate any advice/ insights, or if any seniors choose SUSS over NUS or vice versa could you share your thought process?

Originally I was leaning more towards suss because I like that it focuses more on practicals and offers specialisation whereas nus focus more on theory and has no specialisations. There is also an advocacy group I'm interested in suss but I haven't really researched on nus yet. I also liked that suss is closer to my house and there's no dorms so 'equal' chances of meeting new friends as compared to nus as I am not intending on staying in dorms. And I have the mindset that it's easier to reach for the top in suss compared to nus where all the high scorers go to so I'll have a better chance of standing out in suss and getting opportunities limited to the better achievers.

I know it seems obvious suss would be the choice for me and I did put in a lot of effort into the interviews to get into suss but for nus I only applied to try my luck. However I can't easily give up nus's offer because of obvious reasons and while I don't really see the need to 'waste' the first year on nus's interdisciplinary mods, I am scared that I might make the wrong choice and that nus's approach might be my saving grace in the case where I change my mind about sw. I am also afraid because nus is more rah rah compared to suss environment which I dont particularly like because I'm an introvert but I would also like my uni life to be a little exciting + while I know suss sw's employment rate is relatively high, I will have limited opportunities because suss is not one of the 'big 3'.

So I'm really in a dilemma right now, my heart is going towards suss but my brain is screaming at me about what-ifs because this is a major decision that would determine my future basically

hi i went for the 3 stage interview thing on 8 april and haven’t gotten any response from suss since then, no waitlist or anything 😭 i cant tell if its a good or bad thing to be waiting this long for them to get back to me but it’s making me so anxious. has anyone who applied for ft psych not received any response too?

hihi i got into suss and was wondering how is it like? in terms of classes, ccas? is it really like a self learning sch with no social life? thksss

Has anyone been to suss asean scholarship interview? I am nervous for my tmr interview and I do not know what to prepare.

Anybody else on the waitlist for a while now? Any news from SUSS on the outcome? How long will this usually last?

Is been a a while since SUSS replied! I have seen so many post saying that no response or stuck in waiting list for atleast a month or longer! What should I do or just wait until 25 may( which is the last day of acceptance window)?

My GPA is above 3. So competitive this year?

Do share your course that you applied too.

My course is business Analyst!

i attended the interview on 30th April for finance, no updates yet. when did everyone hear back from suss?

for context, im a 19f A level graduate entering uni this year. i have confirmed offers from an overseas uni & suss (for the exact same programme, starting 2026). im really split minded on which uni to pick…im very hesitant to go abroad because im worried about expenses, living alone, new country etc but i know the uni there is more reputable than suss. im really unsure of what to do, anyone in the same/similar position who can help me out here? what are your suggestions/thoughts on how i can go about choosing the right path for myself 🥲🥲

also wld appreciate if any suss students cld tell me more abt ur uni life, or if any overseas uni students (from sg) can tell me more abt ur transition into university coming from sg!

any input is much appreciated :) thank u guys!

Its been at least a month since ive attended an interview from SUSS for HRM (4th april) however till now there has been no updates at all? FYI my gpa not the highest but its still above 3…

ive heard and read from other posts and people that those who more or less attended the same week as me from other course and HRM as well have already received status updates… sooo idk does anyone know a rough estimate as to when can receive or not 🫠

hi! i’m a jc graduate (19f) who just did A levels last year. I didn’t score very well for a levels but psychology was always something i wanted to pursue so I decided to stick to the route and applied for suss psychology. I went for interview in early April but it’s almost May now and there are still no updates…

I’m starting to get worried. May I know if anyone who went for interview in early april have already receive offers? I’m also really scared that the long wait will just end up being a waitlist email.. so i’m convincing myself that they are taking so long so that the email they can send me is an offer instead of waitlist :(

Hi all! Just managed to get my offer email from SUSS and I assume everyone else who applied for the program probably did as well or have received it earlier this week.

I didn’t manage to get any of mine and It was the same for my friend who got the email about Monday this week but was also not offered interview by any of her picked SSAs.

Just wanted to check did anyone managed to get contacted by the SSAs or organizations that you put as your 3 choices for interviews? Thanks all for the help and for those who are ongoing interviews good luck!

Hi guys,
