I highly recommend it! Its a "clasical" university in the sense that it contains a lot of clubs, fascilities and possibilities, whether you are interested in chess or karate. It is one of the best universities of Asia, and because of its young age, it is still climbing. Singapore as a city is one of the most cosmopolitan and buzzling cities in the World. You will meet a lot of interesting persons!

Try to interact both with the locals (for instance clubs at the university) and the expat environment in Singapore (contact your embassy for info on this).
Travel whenever you have a chance!

Know more about the hall orientation.
The hall orientation is for all singaporean students to get to know each other. I participated but found it difficult to get along with people because of big differnces. Maybe it would have been easier if I knew more in advance.

I think it has been a great experience to study at NTU. Mostly because it has given me the opportunity to get to know a new culture and a different way of thinking.
The education system is very different from the one in my home university and I find it very interesting to see how it works here.

I advise everybody coming to Singapore to try to interact as much as possible with local students even though it can seam difficut to begin with.
I have learnt a lot from having singaporean friends, they think in a way totally different from what I do.
I would also recomend everybody to travel a lot!

Don't live on campus for more than six months. You will get problems with the lack of privacy after a couple of months. For 6 months it's ok though. But if you stay longer, go and look for an appartment in the city.

Go travelling!!! As much as you can. Singapore offers so much great opportunities for travelling. Organize your vaccinations at home, it takes a while before they start working.
