Application Portal

Please refer to the UHMS user guide for a step-by-step explanation on how to submit a hostel application/ registration.

Please note that:

• Students allocated to Halls or Residential Colleges must subscribe to meal plans.
• Admission into the Residential Colleges is dependent on you being offered a place in the RVRC Programme, NUS College, or University Town College Programme as well as your acceptance of that offer. Upon confirmation of acceptance into the programme, the programme will follow up with details on room registration.
• Students who have earlier submitted an application to a Hall or Student Residence and who subsequently receive an offer to stay in a residential college will not be required to pay the application fee again when they are informed by the residential college to complete the online room registration via UHMS. Similarly, students who withdraw from a residential college would also not be required to pay another application fee when they submit an application to a Hall or Student Residence.

Unsuccessful students with unforeseen difficulties and urgent needs may submit their appeals with supporting documents, if any, through the University Hostel Management System (UHMS) housing portal. Submission via other channels will NOT be considered. For complex requests, we may need more time to review the request and the circumstances, and we would like to seek your understanding should there be any delay.

Due to overwhelming demand and limited availability of campus housing, on-campus housing for appeal request is not guaranteed and subject to availability. Students are strongly advised to source for off-campus housing as only very limited rooms may be available from July/ August onwards. All appeals are considered objectively on a case-by-case basis and will be allocated carefully to students with genuine need.

Only submit your appeal application if you are truly in need. Appeals from students who have rejected housing offers for the same semester will not be considered. Further appeals from the same student will not be processed. In the event that the appeal remains as unsuccessful, please be assured that it has been thoroughly reviewed. Your appeal will be re-considered in subsequent rounds if there are any available rooms due to cancellations from early August. Students are highly encouraged to source for alternative housing, you may find some resources for off-campus housing here.
