As an additional note, students who are not eventually selected for the TF LEaRN Programme @ NUS will not be eligible to proceed with their application to do an exchange programme at NUS in Semester 1 with a fee waiver. These students may, however, consider to apply for Non-Graduating Non-Exchange which requires them to pay the NUS tuition fees for the semester that they are enrolled at NUS. Alternatively, students may be nominated by their home universities under the AUN-ACTS exchange agreement, which allows students to be nominated through the AUN-ACTS portal to come to NUS for exchange (with tuition waiver) in Semester 2 (Jan-May). However, places for the AUN-ACTS nominations are very limited and therefore very competitive.

A gentle reminder to please send your nominations by 1 April 2020. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

We look forward to receiving your nomination and your students’ applications.
