POST-SECONDArY EDUCATION (PSE) SChEME


                  The PSE scheme helps parents save for their children’s post-secondary education by maintaining a Post-Secondary
                  Education Account (PSEA) for each eligible child. This is part of the Government’s efforts to encourage every
                  Singaporean to complete his/her post-secondary education. It also underscores the Government’s commitment to
                  support families investing in the future education of their children and to prepare them for the economy of the future.
                  PSEA is not a bank account. It is administered by the MOE and is opened automatically to all eligible Singaporeans.
                  Singaporeans who are pursuing full-time diploma courses or the Bachelor of Music (Hons) course can use their own
                  or their siblings’ PSE funds to pay for the approved fees and charges at NAFA.
                  To check your PSE account balance, you may contact the PSE Scheme Customer Service:
