DigiPen Institute of Technology’s Redmond campus hosts students from DigiPen Institute of Technology Singapore for one trimester through the Overseas Immersion Programme. The OIP is compulsory for all undergraduate students in the SIT-DigiPen (Singapore) joint degree and DigiPen (Singapore) degree programs.
This program allows DigiPen (Singapore) students to take one trimester of degree modules in the Redmond campus toward fulfilling their degrees. Participation in the OIP will be reflected in SIT students’ Record of Achievement (ROA).
Students will participate in the OIP during their fifth trimester of their academic study.
Cost of the OIP
Students can refer to the SIT Global Experience webpage for information on the estimated cost range of the program.
DigiPen Housing for the OIP
Accommodation during the OIP will be arranged by DigiPen Housing. It is mandatory for all OIP students to stay at one of the apartments arranged by DigiPen Housing as the school must know your whereabouts in the event of a recall during emergencies. The location of the housing will be confirmed three months before the start of the OIP. Students may choose their housemates. All housing options are apartment-styled and located close to the campus. See our Housing Options page to view a list of housing options and their amenities, photos, and video walk-throughs of sample units.
OIP Registration
Students are to submit their OIP applications via the OIP Student Application Form. Do note that the application form will be activated in October after the annual OIP briefing.
Before you start the application process, please check your passport validity. As a general rule, your passport should have at least six months of validity before your travel date.
If you are a current DigiPen (Singapore) student and have questions about the OIP, please email the Student Life and Advising Office at studentlife.sg[at]digipen[dot]edu.
