Update: Deadline has been extended to 15 April 2024 (SGT 11:59 PM).

For admissions in AY2024-2025:

You are strongly encouraged to apply even if you have not received an offer to join an undergraduate degree programme in NUS.

University Town College Programme (UTCP) at Tembusu College is typically a two year residency programme. After two years, students may apply to spend a third year in residency, during which they can take part in the Senior Learning Experience. A very limited number of students may also be selected to stay a fourth year.

Candidates interested to gain admission to Tembusu College have to submit an application through the Joint Residential College Application System website. Please note that the application system will not be available from 1:00AM to 3:00AM daily (+8 GMT) for system maintenance.

All candidates have to submit an essay as part of the application process. Shortlisted candidates residing in Singapore should be prepared to be called for an interview. Otherwise, alternative interview arrangements will be considered on a case by case basis. The interview session will allow us to get to know you better and learn about your interests and talents. It is also an opportunity for you to find out more about University Town and the College. We are looking to recruit a diversity of people with varied interests, and who will be good citizens of the College.

Before accessing the Joint Residential College Application System, candidates should note the following:

• For incoming freshmen, please feel free to apply to us while awaiting your offer from NUS. However, admission into the UTCP at Tembusu College is contingent upon your acceptance of an offer to pursue an undergraduate degree program in NUS.
• By joining Tembusu College, you will participate in the UTCP.
• You may indicate your preference for Tembusu College in your application, but your eventual College placement (if selected) may be different from this.
