When you choose the option that you are from common law background, you will find at the end of the next page asking whether you have studied Company Law,(a compulsory module for C&FSL) If yes, YOU have to mention- in which year, what was the name of the module studied and the grade you got in that subject.

@imarkon
It is on the module registration page. Please refer to following link-http://law.nus.edu.sg/student_matters/grad_prog/curriculum_courses.html -------> Click "Information on Module Registration - LLM/PhD" --------> Scroll down the page to "B. Registration for Law Modules" --------> In point no. 3 click "Here" and you will reach the module registration page where you have to fill up 3 pages.... hurry!! select your electives latest by 27th. All The Best :)

@Dhar: After I accepted the offer from Utown I stopped looking for alternative accommodation. The place seems nice and social, and as long as I'm not in Singapore, it's hard to find anything better. If I'm not satisfied I guess I'll just find something else after the first semester.

Anyway, I just selected modules for the first semester. Since I'm from a non-common law country, there's not that many modules to elect for the first semester. And, today I've bought tickets to Singapore. I'm arriving the 24th of July. When are you guys coming?

@Fay: Looking forward to see you in the maritime class. I understand you come from the northern countries such as myself. Where are you from and where have you worked before moving to Singapore?

Mads, I am from Finland. (so, even though I do speak also Swedish, I guess we have to communicate in English since I am not native Swedish speaker..I think I have some problems to understand Norwegian :) ). I have worked in a Finnish shipping company for a year now and have planned to return to my current position after my LL.M studies. Before shipping industry, I have worked as an associate lawyer in attorneys-at-law office and at that time my assignments related mostly in dispute resolution (arbitration proceedings). Looking forward to meet to you too! We could consider together if we want to look for alternative accommodation. I have also accepted the Utown offer but I am not sure if that is the place I wanna stay both semesters.. So in case you find something and are interested in having roommate, pls inform me. I am arriving 25th of July, also just booked flights!!

Hey all!
Do you have any idea about job prospects in Singapore . There are several International law firms there, don't know if they recruit from the campus. I mean it shall be really great if one gets to work there. Has any body heard anything regarding this from previous year students.

Hey This is a question to everyone from India... Are we required to appear for QET if-

1) We have got less than 115 TOEFL Score?
2) We have been granted waiver from English Proficiency Test at the time of admission??

Please Clarify anyone...

@Fay: Al'right, Finland, cool. I'm not traveling to Singapore to speak Norwegian anyway, so no prob. As you, I'm not sure wether to live on campus the second semester, but we'll see. I don't even now if my room has aircondition, and I've heard that it's crucial. If not, I'll be happy to find something together.

I understand that you have some more experience than me. It's a good thing to have tried the field in practice. I guess you have the same system as in Norway with a five year long Masters programme. Will you be taking the common law classes?

Anyway, looking forward to Singapore, will be awesome! See all you guys soon :)

hi everyone, so before departing for singapore i was trying to sort out a list of every kind of document needed to give in on the first days at the university.

please check if everything's correct and feel free to add if something is wrong. sources are welcome-letter and IPA-letter.

- Your Letter of Offer and This Letter (welcome letter)
- Copy of passport details (only if your passport has been renewed recently)
- In-Principle Approval Letter from the Immigrations & Checkpoints Authority (for international students only)
- Outstanding supporting documents, if any (e.g. original transcript, copy of degree certificate, etc.)
- Original completed Reply on Offer of Admission
- Original copy of your NUS Pre-enrollment Medical Report form if you have done your medical examination elsewhere other than NUS University Health Centre (UHC)
- The following relevant forms, duly signed and completed, which you can download from the online pre-registration system:
Form 1: Release of Liability (compulsory for all students)
Form 2: Authorisation of Medical Procedures (compulsory for international students)
Form 3: Appointment of Local Representative (compulsory for international students)
- IPA letter;
- The applicant's passport/travel document with a valid Visit Pass. A copy of the passport particulars page must be submitted to ICA;
- One recent passport-sized colour photograph of applicant which meets the following requirement;
- The printout of the Student's Pass application form (Form 16) that was submitted through the Student's Pass OnLine Application &
Registration (SOLAR) System. The printout must be duly signed by the applicant;
- A medical report according to the attached format including the original copy of the laboratory report.


EXTRA QUESTION: the applicant is required to pay a total fee of S$90 (i.e. S$60 Student Pass Issuance Fee and S$30
Multiple Journey fee).
can I do this now thru SOLAR before leaving to Singapore?

Hi Imarkon!
There is also this Declaration viz. Terms and Conditions of Issue for Long Term Pass (LTP) Card applicable to LTVP and Student Pass Holders released as of 1st June 2011. http://www.ica.gov.sg/e_services_overview.aspx?pageid=312 the last link on this page.
This print out also meant to be filled with the requisite details and signed by an applicant of the relevant pass.
Otherwise your checklist apears to cover everything

@Ayeshia: i had a look at your link, there's also some other links for student passes above the one you've mentioned - did NUS tell you you had to get only this particular one or..? I think we have to get another email soon anyway, which should have this additional info, cos i had the same list as imarkon...

is anyone making it for the Intnl student orientations? and is anyone signing up for the events during the last week? and if so, which ones?

Is anyone staying off campus?

@Dhar: Nobody specifically intimated me about this. I was just double checking on the ICA website as a matter of abundant caution so as to not face any difficulties at immigration. I'm considering staying off campus.

As for the events/ student orientations , I have the same question for everyone. Is anyone joining?

Nothing really looks all that exciting! :)

So I get in on the 25th, (and I'm looking at living on Owen Rd, near Farrer Park) we have registration on the 28th in the morning at Bukit timah and then ICA registration at presumably Kent Ridge afterwards.. and the events are tours or physical/non physical activity based.. the campus tour is of KR and surrounding areas right? so won't entirely be useful... any thoughts?
