"Everything starts this moment—with the orientation. An orientation not only introduces you to the secret sauce of a good university, but also opens the door to fresh and wholesome experiences you can call your own. Even then, a four-day orientation camp barely offers a teaser to the vibrancy of student life in NUS. It is therefore our hope that freshmen and seniors alike see the semester ahead as a canvas to create meaningful episodes of co-curricular learning and paint the way forward to a purposeful student life in NUS. For starters, enjoy the activities planned out for you. We look forward to engaging you in the days ahead.

Arguably the most vibrant and dynamic event in NUS, Flag aims to collect donations at 120 flagging locations and end off with the Receiving and Giving (RAG) live performances at NUS UTown to thank everyone for donating and supporting our fundraising efforts.
