The Nanyang MBA at Nanyang Technological University charges SGD 92,955 for the July 2027 intake, goods and services tax included, plus a one-time SGD 620 miscellaneous fee, about $72,630 in tuition at the ECB rate. Singapore citizens, permanent residents, NTU alumni and company-sponsored students receive grants off that price. The school gives no total living budget, only a monthly range for a student in a campus dormitory of SGD 1,200 to SGD 1,500. On outcomes it states that 93% of graduates were employed within three months, without naming the class, and it publishes no starting salary; the only salary on its page is an alumni average with no date, which this site does not use as a starting figure. So our model cannot compute a total cost or a payback for the reference person earning $90,000, and the school is not ranked. What it does show is a short, Singapore-based program whose students average 28 years of age and 6 years of work experience.
A one-year price in Singapore dollars
Tuition of SGD 92,955 covers the 12-month program; the school also runs longer double-degree routes with partners in Japan and Europe, at different prices. Another Singapore school on this site, NUS, charges SGD 106,850 for a program of up to 17 months, SGD 13,895 more than Nanyang. Because both are priced in Singapore dollars, a student paying from savings in another currency should convert the fee at the date of each payment, not at the date of the offer.
The monthly living range, SGD 1,200 to SGD 1,500, assumes a room in a campus dormitory. Over 12 months that gives SGD 14,400 to SGD 18,000 before travel. We do not turn that into a budget of our own: the school does not publish one, and a dormitory range says nothing about the rent of a private flat.

Employment without a salary
The career statistics on the program page give a placement rate of 93% within three months and say that most graduates changed sector, country or function. They give no median or average base salary for a dated class, no split by industry or region, and no hire counts. A fuller career report exists behind a download form, which we did not submit, so none of its figures appear here. The employers the school names, all without counts, include Amazon, Apple, BCG, Deloitte Consulting, GE and GIC, a list that covers the graduate programs of the whole business school rather than the MBA alone.
To use the calculator above, type the salary you expect after the degree in the market you plan to work in. Asking admissions for the dated report is worth the effort, since the gap between a low and a high guess changes the payback by years.
Who sits in the class
The class profile shows an average age of 28, about 6 years of work experience and 40% women, from 15 nationalities; the school does not date the profile. Those are figures for a mid-career class, so the salary given up matters: at $90,000 a year, the 12 months away cost about $90,000 before tax.
