Add something from my previous post..for double room(only available in halls of residence), the rates would be 1350 for sem 1 and 1275 for sem 2. Based on my experience, 800 SGD should be fine if you planned your monthly expenditure well.

NUS is quite generous when it comes to giving out financial aids and loans so it should be no problem if everything goes smoothly with the application.

Yes, you'll pay the accommodation fees for the entire semester in one lump sum usually at the first month of the semester and the fees would cover the utilities like electricity, internet..etc..however, if you're planning to have a portable air conditioner or refrigerator in your room then you would have to pay extra for the increased electricity consumption.

There are actually more miscellaneous fees like welfare, registration fees...etc to be paid at the beginning of the semester but the amount varies so I can't be sure of it..

Haha it's ok if you can't guess but glad you like the dance, the entire process was really fun!!

Hi

Like what lamandy93 said, I don't go outside campus frequently during weekends and would only go for outings only once or twice per month so it's no surprise that my traveling fees are low(and the amount is a rough estimate of the average depending on how frequent i go out and how far I went, sometimes it's more than 5 and sometimes less)

Yes, I'm on SingTel Prepaid and it extends the expiry date for a few months for every 20 SGD top up...

I agree that going outside and explore is important but that doesn't mean I have to do it that frequently(to me..once or twice per month is enough ) and no, I don't study 24/7...lol. Different people have different ways of making their university life worthwhile, joining CCAs, making new friends, taking part in university events are also great platforms to learn new things as much as traveling in my opinion

*sorry if i sound offensive...*

Hi there You can check in as early as mid July, you just need to send an email to inform them. Like for me, I checked in to my hall at around 13th July.

Yes, checking in early means you would have to pay extra depending on how early you checked in prior to the beginning of the semester. Of course you can still buy the tee shirt from us(provided we have enough left) even if you're not able to join the UFO9 although we highly encourage you to join us and have fun

Hi there Nice meeting you during the welcome tea.

I paid for my SOLAR application using VISA but mastercard should work. The website might be busy so maybe you can try refreshing the page or wait for short while before attempting to pay the processing fee again.

You can start filling in the application form for the tuition fee loan now as the deadline of the application is near the end of July. The tuition grant application will only be open during August so you would have apply for the tuition fee loan first.

Yes, you can put in all the halls of residence of your choice. If you're not accepted to any of them you will be arranged to stay in student residences.

Hope that clear your doubts

Hi . You can send an email to the admin staff of the hall you're assigned to and inform them of your check-in date and time.
