Hwa Chong Institution Boarding School is a boarding school in Singapore.
The boarding school began its operations in 2002, and was officially opened in 2003 by then deputy prime minister Mr. Lee Hsien Loong. There are also local Singaporean boarders, who are mainly students from Hwa Chong Institution.
Each 18-24 boarders will be assigned with a cluster mentor, who provides a link between boarding school and parents and who is concerned with all aspects of his/her education, personal development and welfare.

Designed by architect Kenzo Tange, the complex consists of seven 6-storey blocks (Hall A - Hall G) providing accommodation for up to 1,000 boarders or guests. Each hall has five residential levels (six for Hall E, F and G), in which each level is separated into left and right clusters, each supervised by a cluster mentor.

The Boarders' Council is a student committee elected by the boarding school population. It acts as a bridge between boarders and the boarding school staff. The Boarders' Council is also responsible for the organization and planning of major events such as Investiture Dinner, National Day Celebrations, Year-End Dinner and Chinese New Year. The first Boarders' Council was formed in year 2001.
