Singapore study and work regulations
Full-time international students from public universities and government polytechnics in Singapore can work after applying for jobs and obtaining approval from the schools.
The government stipulates that the working hours per week should not exceed 16 hours. You don't need to apply to the school to go out to work during holidays, and your working hours are not limited.
Of course, if your school is specially approved by the human resources department of Singapore, you don't need to apply for working outside. The working hours during the study period are also 16 hours, and the working hours during the holidays are not limited.
Even if you study in some private colleges that are not allowed to work, there are still ways to earn some living expenses for yourself.

First, the surrounding environment
The living environment should be the focus of everyone's attention, because this is the place where you spend the longest time. Whether it is a school or a place of residence, we need to conduct in-depth investigations to eliminate hidden dangers.

Second, social life.
In the early days of studying abroad, everyone should put their social scope inside the school, because the overall atmosphere will be relatively simple and safe, and it will be easier to find like-minded friends.
When you go out to attend many people's parties, you should prepare yourself. Don't drink drinks or drinks handed by strangers. Although it is important to expand your communication, overseas friends are basically alienated after returning home.
Third, life insurance.
Everyone must remember to buy insurance, not only the medical insurance required by the school, but also an accident insurance for themselves, so that in the event of an accident, you can get some compensation and minimize your losses.
Fourth, legal knowledge.
Singapore has very strict legislation. Everyone should have a certain understanding of the basic laws of life and know what not to do. After all, the punishment is still very strong, and they will also put their own profiles.
Knowing the law is not only to protect one's rights when they are infringed, but also to restrain one's behavior with the law.
