Starting Your GATE Application? Let’s Get You Registered!
The Government Assistance for Tuition Expenses (GATE) programme is your gateway to higher education, and your journey begins with a single, secure step: registering for your GATE e-Service ID.
To make this first step as simple as possible, the Ministry of Education has partnered with ttconnect to be the official home for in-person GATE ID registration. This partnership ensures your identity is verified securely, protecting your information right from the start.
How We Help You Begin
Your GATE e-Service ID is the personal key that unlocks the online application system. Registering for it is a simple, one-time process at any ttconnect service centre. All you need to bring are your original documents: your Electronic Birth Certificate and National ID card. Our helpful staff will verify them and guide you through the secure registration. From there, you’ll be ready to access the Ministry of Education’s online e-GATE portal to complete and submit your funding application.
Consider ttconnect your partner in powering your ambition. We’re here to handle the first step, so you can focus on your future.
