If this is an application schema (a schema used by an application to connect to the database), you should grant it the minimum sets of rights:
This is the basic set of rights your application should need to run. In most case it will be sufficient.
This solution supposes that the application schema will not own any DATA object. This is the safest method as this will let you control what you allow your application to modify (since you can’t prevent the owner of an object to modify it).
If the application schema owns data tables, you will also have to grant it quotas on tablespaces.
