Health Screening

All students must undergo a health screening prior to admission to determine their medical fitness to pursue the chosen programme of study in the University.

Starting from AY2024 Semester 2, students enrolled in part-time study will be exempt from health screening. This is applicable only to part-time postgraduate students.

Students who are unable to have the health screening done at the Fullerton Healthcare @NTU may have it done by any registered physician in Singapore. The completed  Health Screening Form (MC1) should be submitted personally by hand to the Fullerton Healthcare @NTU before your programme commencement date as reports sent by mail might be lost in the process.
