The information of the shuttle can be found here and participants are encouraged to download the NUSNEXT Bus app (available in both Apple App and Google Play Store) to access the bus arrival timing and stops. A copy of the app tutorial can be found here.  The nearest stop to our methods school classroom is at the Central Library and AS8.

 

Staying off Campus

Staying on campus should be much more convenient and affordable than most off-campus accommodation options. However, if you prefer to live off campus, lists compiled by the NUS Office of Student Affairs (list 1) may provide you with some helpful leads. See also here for a short list of hotels. Some of nearby hotel accommodation options include:

In addition, there are many non-NUS affiliated websites, such as Agoda, HostelWorld, AirBnB, Craigslist, and 99.co, that might be useful to Methods School participants interested in off-campus accommodation.

Please note that the Methods School does not endorse, guarantee, warrant, or recommend any information or necessarily subscribe to any opinions or recommendations provided on these lists or websites.
