I am an NUSHS student from one of the first few batches, and would like to clarify and give some information about the school. This is a bit late, but maybe it can help applicants next year, haha.

Indeed, an excellent informative and impartial write-up by Jfalk! However, I don't think it is suitable for portal posting since it is too specific info on only one school...

Thanks mjl! Indeed, Jfalk has given us an excellent review. But the subject does not warrant Portal publication due to the reason mjl pointed out. Great job, anyway, Jfalk.

Can someone advise whether the boys need to tuck their shirts into their shorts (Formal wear on Monday)? Understand the girls need not tuck in.

Hi, does anyone know what is the attire and what to bring for the orientation? I dont seem to see this in the file.


also anyone know of any transport beside A&N? my son is told that he will be picked up at 6am and reach school at 7.15. Trying to optimise the route.
