top-up kiosks located conveniently in/near the Halls.

(iii) Major installation works are currently ongoing at Graduate Hall 1 rooms and common
areas and will continue after check-in.
 Rectification works will also still be ongoing at Nanyang Crescent Halls after check-in.
Applicants applying for rooms at these Halls are to note that noise and dust are to be
expected, as with any construction works. Contractors accompanied by Admin Office
staff might require access to your rooms/ apartments for the purpose of these works. We
seek your kind understanding and patience in putting up with the inconveniences.

suite double room and two single rooms, to house two or four graduate students of the
same gender.

Applicants of single rooms at 2-bedroom apartments may be allocated to apartments

shared with married couples residing at the master bedrooms.

Graduate students usually possess past working experiences, received prior training in
one or more academic disciplines, or have dealt with difficult life choices. They have
unique perspectives and can introduce much diversity in residential life in the University
through participating in Hall activities and interactions with other residents. Graduate
students who apply to live in these residential Halls are thus regarded and expected to
be active members of the community with undergraduates as the majority.

(v) Admission to Hall and room is by balloting. Priority in allocation is given to incoming July
2017 intake of graduate students on research programmes who have not domiciled in
Singapore before.

(vi) Graduate students with family may write to us at has-pg@ntu.edu.sg for more
information on apartments for families.

(vii) Results of allocation are scheduled to be released progressively from 3 July 2017
onwards. Unsuccessful applicants shall be automatically placed on the waiting list and
be offered rooms as and when vacancies arise.

(viii) Incomplete applications submitted will be rejected. Applicants applying for married
couples rooms are to submit an official English-translated marriage certificate in PDF
format with their housing applications. The Chief Housing & Auxiliary Services Officer
has the right to reject application or remove hall tenancy should information provided by
the applicant be found incorrect or there is misrepresentation of information.
