Student’s Pass Application

International Students must obtain a valid Student’s Pass (STP) issued by the Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA), before they can commence their course.

Student’s Pass Application

  • Students are required to complete all items in ICA Forms 16 & V36 and submit to DIMENSIONS for onward submission to ICA through the student’s pass on-line application system (SOLAR+ System)
  • A Processing Fee of $30 is required for each application submitted to ICA. The processing fee is non-refundable regardless of the outcome of the STP application or if the STP application is withdrawn after submission
  • ICA will take up to 14 days to process each STP application.

In-Principal Approval (IPA) by ICA
