For many young Singaporeans, moving out is not that simple. Co-living offers an affordable and flexible way to experience living independently.
Announced on 25 July 2026 by the National Youth Council (NYC) and the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), the Singapore Youth Plan (SG Youth Plan) is a 5-year blueprint covering initiatives across careers, well-being, relationships, and independent living.
As part of these efforts, young Singaporeans can now access discounted co-living rooms at Coliwoo, making their first step towards living on their own more attainable.
Here is what the initiative actually covers, how the discount works, and what it means if you are a young Singaporean thinking about your first move out.
What Is the SG Youth Plan’s Independent Living Initiative?
The independent living initiative is part of the broader SG Youth Plan, aimed specifically at helping Singaporeans aged 21 to 35 who want a place of their own.
From 25 July 2026, more than 100 rooms have been made available at discounted rates across three co-living properties. For Coliwoo, participating properties include Coliwoo Boon Lay and Coliwoo 1A Lutheran. Room types include twin and queen configurations, with prices starting from $1,950 a month.
What Can You Expect When You Stay at Coliwoo?
Coliwoo offers fully furnished rooms with an ensuite bathroom, workstation, and wardrobe—giving residents everything they need within the comfort of their private space. On top of that, our all-inclusive rental rates cover utilities and Wi-Fi, eliminating the hassle of setting up or managing multiple service accounts. Compared to traditional bare-room rentals, Coliwoo delivers a seamless, cost-effective living solution tailored for students and young professionals.
Here at Coliwoo, we also feature thoughtfully curated shared spaces such as social kitchens, communal lounges, and event facilities—all designed to bring people together, foster meaningful connections, and build community. We also organize regular events to help you feel right at home!
Finding the Right Coliwoo Location for You
The SG Youth Plan discount applies specifically to Coliwoo Boon Lay and Coliwoo 1A Lutheran.
Coliwoo Boon Lay is ideal for students at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and working professionals based in the west, offering direct convenience near Boon Lay MRT Station. Meanwhile, Coliwoo 1A Lutheran is situated near Singapore Botanic Gardens, SIM, and NUS—making it well-suited for university students and anyone seeking a tranquil, nature-adjacent environment with seamless city connectivity.
Coliwoo offers flexible lease terms as short as one month with zero agent fees. Paired with shared amenities like fully equipped kitchens, lounges, and fitness facilities, independent living becomes a practical and achievable next step.
What Should You Do If You Want to Apply?
If you are a Singaporean citizen aged 21 to 35 interested in securing discounted rates at Coliwoo Boon Lay or Coliwoo 1A Lutheran, you can submit an application via the official MCCY portal. Please keep in mind that allocations are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
