Communications & New Media
NUS is a good school in general and there are a lot of amenities available. It's also a good place to meet new people, especially for exchange students since majority of students are Singaporeans. There is some emphasis on holistic education too, but does not feel too burdensome for those who want to focus on their own fields.
Excellent
Well renounced education and very clean environment
Safe campus, broad support
Overall it is a safe and clean campus that I would recommend for others to come. The staff also puts in effort to ensure that all students understand the material and are available for consultations if needed. Support can be found everywhere especially at UHC where counselling is provided.
