A safe facility for students who qualified for Global Citizens Scholarship
Location: Flo Residence, Punggol
A secure boarding facility for students opting to study in GIIS Singapore
Location: ACS Oldham Hall, Barker Road
A safe and comfortable housing facility for overseas students
Students who have earned the Global Citizens Scholarship will avail hostel facilities for a two year period, starting from the year of their joining GIIS Singapore.
We have collaborated with a premium local boarding facility for students who want to pursue education with GIIS in Singapore. Established in 1886 as a boarding school, Oldham Hall is a modern 400-bed facility today, providing accommodation and pastoral care to more than 250 students studying in local and international schools. The boarding has a structured environment with roll calls, study time, curfews to help patrons cultivate independence, as well as self-discipline and time management.
Students living in the hostel will be covered under additional medical insurance.
In case of GCS students, the medical insurance will be covered by the school.
In case of international students, insurance will be bought by the individuals themselves.
Visa proceedings will be initiated for students who wish to get an international education at GIIS in Singapore and require boarding facilities.
GIIS will provide all assistance to students arriving in Singapore for studying and will have to apply for a Student Pass with the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) of Singapore.
GIIS will facilitate the students in submitting the application & follow up for approval.
In the current Singapore immigration law there is no provision for a Parent/Guardian Visa to accompany the student.
In case of rejection of Student Pass by ICA for any reason, GIIS will refund the registration charge for school and Hostel after deducting administrative charges for processing.
There are strict rules and regulations in place for students using the hostel facilities. Students are expected to adhere to the timings. Any change will have to be notified to the school authorities beforehand.
Parents/Guardians can come to visit their children, but will have to make their own living arrangements. Parents/Guardians are not allowed to stay with the students in the hostel.
Each student coming to Singapore will have to open a bank account with any of the local banks. This ensures that parents/guardians will be able to transfer funds for the students’ payments and expenses directly from a local account.
This also ensures that the students will have funds to take care of their daily expenses.
Starting a bank account in Singapore is an easy process which can be done over the counter or online. Details of the relevant documents required for the account opening are available on the bank’s website. GIIS will facilitate in terms of letter required.
The condominium has controlled access to its premises. There is 24x7 security and CCTV cameras, and ID cards to enter into the condominium, to ensure no unauthorised people can enter. Each visitor is expected to share their personal details with the security guard and register themselves before they are allowed inside the premises.
Pastoral care is provided through fully-trained residential house mistresses, who take care of the student's needs.
