Morten I
Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
I would choose to live on campus, because of the cheap accomodation and the location to the auditoriums. The University is located quite far from downtown. Transportation to and from the university can be quite time- consuming if you live outside the campus. Another reason for me to stay on campus, is that other accommodation, such as renting an appartment, is really expensive in Singapore.

Personal comments
The room was quite small, if you take into account that I had to share it with another person. But the stay at Hall 9 was good and would have stayed there again if I had the chance. I met a lot of new and interesting personalities from all around the world, and learnt a great deal about the different cultures.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Major reason would be to be closer to the city. Furthermore, you would have the chance of having more room if affordable, and try to move together with someone that I know or who seems to have same habits. Moreover, chances of obtaining a much quiter place would be favorable.

Personal comments
The accomodation is simple, but sufficient and fits into the culture as experienced by myself. As prices are fairly cheap, you can not expect to live in a 5 star hotel. Most of the rooms are double room, i.e. are shared by 2 persons of the same sex. This allows to get to know people that you might have otherwise never gotten to know. I experienced the complete cultural experience I was looking for.

Why?
Although a great experience, sharing a room with another person could be a bit too much over time. The University was also decentralised compared to the business-community and other facilities.

Very, very cheap. Close to fellow students and classrooms. Top-class training fascilities. Good student community. On the flip-side; far from the Singapore Business District and Downtown. Very limited privacy.

Almost all students share rooms and so did I. I shared room with a singaporean girl and we got along very well.
I am not used to sharing room back home but it turned out to work very well and to be an interesting experience.
I were also very happy that my host university arranged everything for me conserning housing.

I was not in the campus of NTU. However, some friends commented it was improving and the air conditioning was being installed. On the other hand, it was really cheap.

Why?
It is the best way to live as a foreign student i Singapore as it would be difficult to get into the "student life" in any other way. Also, it is very expensive in Singapore.

The accommodation is good enough but there are a lot of rules and the rooms could be bigger.
