As Singapore’s largest estate developer, the Housing & Development Board (HDB) is dedicated to creating a world-class living environment that brings about the highest standard of living for all. Over the last 50 years, HDB has shaped Singapore’s unique skyline, providing affordable homes, creating vibrant towns and promoting the building of cohesive communities.

The HDB Scholarship is a gateway to a rewarding career in an organisation where you can realise your dream and build a future of possibilities. Our scholarships are open to Singaporeans and Permanent Residents, and are tenable for degrees in most disciplines (except medicine and dentistry) at reputable universities in Singapore or overseas.


The HDB Undergraduate Scholarship is offered to 'A' level students (or equivalent) with excellent academic results and CCA records to pursue their undergraduate studies. Scholars will have to fulfill a bond period of 6 years for overseas scholarship or 4 years for local scholarship upon graduation. Applications for the HDB Undergraduate Scholarship are to be submitted within 3 weeks of the release of the GCE 'A' level results.


The HDB Mid-Term Scholarship is offered to undergraduates with excellent academic results and CCA records to pursue the remaining years of their degree. The bond duration will be dependent on the remaining duration of their studies. Applications for the HDB Mid-Term Scholarship can be submitted throughout the year.
