YOYOYO AUGUST WAS A BLAST!!!
Before I describe the fun stuff, I guess I should talk about classes (because that's what you're here for LOL). My schedule was pretty simple. As a note, A & B described different sections:
On paper, my two afternoon classes ended at 3:00 PM while my morning class ended at 11:30 AM, but generally all NUS classes end 30 minutes earlier for people to walk to their next class. I was super lucky; other students had tutorials and labs along with their normal lectures, but I only had lectures with projects (and my Monday class has only one final exam at the end of the semester). I was also super lucky in that I didn't have to rearrange my classes around---during the application process to NUS, you need to rank your classes 1-8, and the registrar assigns classes for you. Super nerve-wracking and many exchange students needed to schedule meetings during this month for adjustments, but I happened to get all the classes I needed in the first round. Although I was big chillin' ✨ There's one reason that I suspect that may have lead to this outcome. It's not confirmed, but I think these are good pre-cautions to take during your application period:
So the lesson here: Be early! ON TO THE FUN STUFF! NUS provides a lot of activities during their orientation week and throughout the month (make sure to check your emails for registration!) to get exchangers and international students settled into their new home for a period of time. Here are the main NUS events and Singapore Places I've experienced during the month:
