Conference Housing

Default Text

OVERVIEW & RATES.

Residential living is an essential part of a holistic university education. It offers a life-time opportunity for students to live amongst peers from different countries, social and cultural backgrounds, and academic disciplines. It provides ample opportunities for one to step out, engage, and open one’s mind to others. It also enables students to hone their leadership skills, people skills, and forge lasting friendships with one another.

NUS offers conference accommodation options for guests over at our residential colleges. We will convert the student hostels to conference hostels equip with basic needs.
