the sewing machine i've been lusting over is now mine, thanks to my mum and dad. sewing machines are expensive, i saw lots which were around $7000, and most cost almost as much as a computer. yesterday i went crazy and made a few pouches, a tote bag and a pleated clutch with my pretty fabric stash. right now there's a lot of designer fabric i'd like to order online, from the US and japan, especially since i only have a few months of sloth-dom left. but on top of the crazy per yard costs, shipping costs are going to be insanely prohibitive-- fabric is bulky :(

i've been getting emails from nus law, and the 5th year double degree programme fees are going to be raised to around $25, 000/year (!), instead of the prevailing fees for law ($6500ish?) there will be a 50% subsidy though, so it's not too bad, i guess. i don't know how the concurrent degree works because although it isn't the same as a double degree, i've been receiving the exact same emails. i don't know a single other person doing a concurrent degree, and it's a bit freaky.

AY2007/08 cohort:

For the AY2007/08 cohort, students in a DDP will pay the prevailing tuition fee of the Faculty/School offering the home course (see Question 7 of FAQs) for the first four years of study.

For the fifth year of study, in view of limited or no Tuition Grant from the Ministry of Education, the fees payable are pegged as follows:

* DDPs where one of the degrees is in Engineering or Computing: two times the prevailing fee

* All other DDPs: four times the prevailing fee

However, in view of the financial implications for students, NUS will offer scholarships to help offset 50% of the total tuition fee in the fifth year. In other words,

* For DDPs where one of the degrees is in Engineering or Computing, students will only need to pay the prevailing tuition fee of the Faculty/School offering the home course

* For all other DDPs, students will pay two times the prevailing tuition fee of the Faculty/School offering the home course.
