Arrival Information for New Exchange Students
1. Arrival in Singapore
Incoming exchange students are advised to arrive in Singapore two weeks before the start of Semester to ensure that you have sufficient time to settle down.
You are required to complete registration formalities with the NUS Office of the University Registrar prior and after you arrive in Singapore. The NUS Office of Student Affairs also conducts an International Student Orientation Briefing. These activities normally take place 1-2 weeks prior to the start of semester. More information about these and the schedule will be available in the Registration Guide sent to exchange students who are admitted.
2. Welcome Activities by Faculty of Law
The Faculty of Law conducts its own welcome activities for all incoming exchange students. This includes a welcome lunch and interaction session with our Law Students’ International Relations Committee. There will also be a mandatory academic briefing conducted by the Vice-Dean for Academic Affairs during the first week of the semester which will cover matters relating to academic matters, class attendance, assessments, grading policy etc. All exchange students are also required to attend an Ethical Conduct/Plagiarism briefing.
The details of the sessions will be sent to you by email.
3. Digital Guides for Incoming Students
The Office of the University Registrar maintains a helpful resource for all non-graduating exchange student that can be accessed at myPortal@NUS.
In addition, the Law Student Exchange team will send incoming students digital guides to help them get to know our UTown Campus and student life in NUS Law. Do look out for these emails.
