Congratulations to all those who have received their offers. Now I wonder how does NS disruption works.

Hi SoNge, I found this info on the web:

DISRUPTION FROM FULL-TIME NATIONAL SERVICE (NS) FOR MEDICAL STUDIES AT NUS

Only selected full-time National Servicemen (NSFs) who are deemed suitable to serve as doctors in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), Singapore Police Force (SPF), or Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) during their full-time NS will be eligible for disruption to pursue undergraduate medical studies. The Local Medical Disruption Scheme (LMDS) applies only to servicemen who are selected for undergraduate medical studies locally. It is not applicable to servicemen who wish to pursue medical studies overseas.

From those who have secured places to study undergraduate medicine in NUS, a number of servicemen will be selected for disruption under this scheme. This number is based on manpower and operational requirements of the Singapore Armed Forces for NSF Medical Officers (MOs). Hence, not all servicemen who have secured places in NUS will be disrupted under this scheme. Servicemen who have qualified for undergraduate medical studies in NUS are not required to apply for disruption under this scheme as they will automatically be considered for selection.

Selection for disruption from full-time NS will be based on the following criteria:

a) Good military performance/conduct, with no adverse disciplinary records during their full-time NS up to the point of disruption.
b) Medically and physically fit to undergo rigorous training to assume the duties as Medical Officers in a military environment.
c) At the point of disruption, candidates should have successfully completed their Basic Military Training.
d) Servicemen should have at least 12 months of full-time NS service balance to serve as a medical officer (including the time required to attend the Medical Officer Cadet Course but not including the time to attend Basic Military Training) upon re-enlistment. Those without the minimum full-time NS service balance will be requested to agree to a voluntary extension of service as a condition for disruption.

NSFs who are disrupted under the LMDS must meet the following training requirements:

a) Non-specialist Track: Serve 6 to 12 months of Medical Officer posting in hospitals under the Ministry of Health after their housemanshipOR
b) Specialist Track: Complete two years of Residency /post-graduate training after their graduation from NUS, before they are re-enlisted to serve out their remaining full-time NS commitment as MOs in one continuous period,AND
c) Undergo at least 3 months of clinical postings in Emergency Medicine and/or Anaesthesiology prior to their re- enlistment, AND

I heard those with CO in my DS’s Camp had a session with their Leaders already to sign some Form.

hello, for those on the waitlist (NUS), if not offered up till now after the two batches (the week of 24th May, and 8th June), does that mean that chances are they wont be offered for this year?
