My family is not rich but parents are willing to finance my overseas studies. However, we will need to make adjustment to our spending inorder to finance my overseas studies.
I will return to Singapore to work in the finance sector. Is the overseas studies really worth spending S$250k? Are SMU ddp scholars highly regarded in the private sector? Will overseas grads be paid much more than local grads?

Go
SMU. $250k is a lot of money and not easy to earn back. Employers here regard
NUS,
NTU and
SMU as highly as UCL or
LSE. And perhaps more highly than Warwick. Overseas grad will not be paid any more than local grads in general.
You can always save and then go overseas for a one year Master's degree later.
