Yongjing Family donates $200k to launch student aid grant

About 200 NP students will receive $1,000 from the grant.

Yongjing Family Office pledged $200,000 to establish the Yongjing Investments student aid grant at Ngee Ann Polytechnic (NP), starting April 2024 of the new academic year.

Students experiencing financial challenges with a gross monthly household per capita income of $750 or less are eligible to apply for the grant.

Each student will be given $1,000 under the grant, along with a government bursary of $2,950, amounting to a combined support of $3,950 to cover the annual subsidised tuition fees and other school expenses.

Around 200 full-time NP students are expected to benefit from the student aid grant over the next two years.
