Apply for a Hostel in 6 Steps

Step 1: Check Your Eligibility

Group

Find out if you are eligible to apply for an NUS student accommodation and the prevailing selection criteria. You will not be able to submit an application if you:

  1. Are not eligible for an NUS accommodation, i.e. part-time students or withdrawn from NUS
  2. Have not been offered to study in NUS for the coming academic year
  3. Have outstanding financial arrears or on Leave of Absence (LOA)
  4. If you are applying for overseas SEP/NOC programme and/or waiting for the outcome, you are strongly encouraged to consider carefully if you should apply for campus housing. Do note that if your application for SEP/NOC programme is approved, your housing may not be rescinded on time and hostel fees may remain payable.

You can also find information about the Residence Admission Scheme (RAS) which is only available for current students not in first year.
