About nine in 10 graduates from SMU, NUS and NTU were able to find employment within six months of finishing their final examinations. This is according to the results of a joint Graduate Employment Survey conducted by the three universities. A total of 10,534 full-time, fresh graduates took part in the survey. The average gross monthly salary among fresh graduates in full-time jobs was $3,229, while the median gross monthly salary was $3,050. These figures are comparable to what fresh graduates received in 2012.
