• Statement of Purpose: Students must write a statement of purpose, stating their reason to study in a particular university. 

• Letters of Recommendation: A letter of recommendation for college admission is a short document typically written by a teacher, counsellor, or mentor highlighting the student’s strengths and potential contributions to a university. 

• Financial Capacity: The students need to present proof that they have enough funds to cover tuition fees, living expenses, and other costs associated with studying in Australia. 

• Academic Transcripts: It is a certified record (inventory) of a student throughout a course of study having full enrolment history including all courses (or subjects) attempted, grades earned, and degrees and awards conferred

• Housing: International students in Singapore have the option of putting up in university hostels, renting private accommodations or government housing. Private hostels both within and outside the campus are also available for students. 

• Transportation: Singapore has a very effective public transportation system which is quite cheap. Transportation can cost students around S$120 to S$250 monthly. 

• Textbooks: While many universities provide materials for study and also have libraries, students are still required to refer to books and stationeries beyond the campus as is the case with any university around the world. Keep at least S$200 to take care of such expenses. 

• Meals: Usually, the monthly cost for meals can be around S$300 for international students in Singapore. It is better for students to go for accommodations where meals are included as eating outside everyday could put a heavy burden on their pocket. 

• Personal Expenses: Besides food and transport, students also have personal expenses that they have to take care of while living in a foreign country. It is advisable to keep around S$300 to meet one's personal expenses in Singapore.
