Asian Nursing Scholarship (Malaysia) – ANS

Introduced in 1994, the Asian Nursing Scholarship (ANS) aims to sponsor talented students from Asian countries to pursue nursing studies at Singapore’ s polytechnics, thereby supplementing the nation’s nursing workforce upon their graduation.

In collaboration with a Singapore government agency, Gateway Technologies Services Pte Ltd has been instrumental in attracting students from Malaysia, with qualifications equivalent to Singapore’s O-levels (minimum Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia, or SPM), to pursue a Diploma in Nursing at either Ngee Ann Polytechnic or Nanyang Polytechnic in Singapore. Upon graduation, these students are assigned to work in public healthcare institutions across Singapore.

Since its involvement in this initiative in 2008, Gateway Technologies Services has successfully attracted hundreds of students annually, making a significant contribution to the healthcare sector in Singapore.

We are proud to introduce Teman Health as the official entity responsible for managing the recruitment process for the Asia Nursing Scholarship (ANS) program.

Teman Health was established to serve as the dedicated platform through which we support aspiring nursing students. Our goal is to provide clear information, personalized guidance, and a seamless application experience. With Gateway’s proven track record and commitment to nurturing talent, Teman Health plays a vital role in identifying and preparing qualified candidates to further their studies in nursing in Singapore through the prestigious ANS program.
