Engineering degree value vs physics, and affording university abroad

[Ashuron]

Tropical paradise you say? Yeah, sure, if you're there for a few weeks once in a while. If you've lived in that place for all your life; you're bound to get sick of it. I want to get out, do other things. Nowt wrong with that.

NUS is expensive.

Well, to my knowledge, NUS seems to offer a lot of financial aid opportunities..
I believe KAIST or HKUST will not be that difficult to get into and the living cost is quite low.., heard from people who went for an exchange there..

At any rate, I take it you guys have no other suggestions?

You could go for continental Europe. Germany and Switzerland have very good engineering schools, and especially Eastern Germany (think of TU Dresden) is one of the cheapest places to live in the Western world. Also, there are no tution fees.

Some of the older UK universities may have highly specific scholarships, get googling! For example:
