For Cross Faculty Applications

Any NUS academic department outside the Business School (MBA Programmes) wishing to recommend its graduate students to take a MBA module is expected to pay the standard external-student rate, which is one-seventeenth of the prevailing MBA tuition fee. 

The MBA Office must finally approve the application, while taking into account the backgrounds of the proposed students as well as the availability of any vacancy in the MBA module.

All such students taking a MBA module are expected to complete all module requirements, and will be assigned official NUS letter grades based on their performance in the module.

IMPORTANT: Please note that students who wish to enroll in the MBA modules MUST satisfy programme and module pre-requisites, to maintain the MBA standard.

Billing of CFM procedures (by home department)

• Once MBA Office approves the CFM application;
• The fee of one-seventeenth of the prevailing MBA tuition fee to be collected from the student;
• Home department to register the module
  

There will be no distinction between "regular" term and "special" term - the home departments will collect the payments from the students directly.

If a student is on any scholarships, the responsibility lies with the student to obtain the approval from his Scholarship body, if prior-approval is required. Scholarship students will be subjected to the stated criteria for registration, and they can only be registered upon approval and collection of fees.

• CFM applications to be submitted to MBA Office two weeks BEFORE the start of each semester.
• The MBA Office will not accept any late or uncompleted applications after the specified deadline as to better facilitate the high volume of applications.
