Studying in Singapore:

A study conducted earlier this year by Mercer Human Resource Consulting, ranked Singapore on position 34 on the list for the best country to live in. The excellent infrastructure that this country possesses was cited as the main reason for this laurel. The evaluation was done on factors like the social life, political situation, economic stability, health facilities, public safety, education and other public services.

An article published in the New York Times last year called for the children of New York City to be educated and brought on par with the talent produced from Asian countries like India, China and Singapore. The children of these countries were found to outperform American students by a significant margin.

The literacy rate of Singapore is one of the highest in Asia ranking it at 95 percent. The cost of living is better than most western countries with accommodation and transport costs ranging from approximately $100- $1,500 respectively. This makes Singapore a very affordable country to pursue higher education in. International students are provided with some of the best facilities to facilitate their stay. The Tourism Board even has a Student Services Department that provides information and advice regardless of the institution they are from.

Cosmos Study Abroad is affiliated with some of the best institutes in this beautiful country. A student can pursue global education in colleges like the Orita-Sinclair School of Art and New Media, Cardiff Learning Centre, Shines Education, Hems Dale University, and the Marketing Institute Singapore.
