NUS offers a variety of accommodation options to suit the needs and aspirations of full-time NUS students.
Residential living is an essential part of a holistic university education. It offers a life-time opportunity for students to live amongst peers from different countries, social and cultural backgrounds, and academic disciplines. It provides ample opportunities for one to step out, engage, and open one’s mind to others. It also enables students to hone their leadership skills, people skills, and forge lasting friendships with one another.
NUS offers three different types of residential options for full-time NUS students to choose from - Halls of Residences (known for their rich co-curricular activities and experiential learning beyond the classroom), Residential Colleges (which offer a residential living experience intertwined with unique academic programmes) and Student Residences (opportunities to participate actively in campus wide activities and interact with peers from diverse backgrounds and cultures).
