National University of Singapore (NUS)

I think this program adapts to all kinds of students and it's certainly a top-notch option for those looking to study abroad (especially for native English-speakers who don't want to learn a new language). Good weather, food, well-developed, easy to travel around, good school, etc.

I would highly recommend the residential colleges (CAPT, USP, Tembusu, etc.) because mostly locals stay in them so it's a great way to meet & interact with locals. They are also relatively new facilities in a really nice part of campus. There is a meal plan and the food is ok.

I didn't go out/party that often but there are definitely plenty of places to do that in SG (albeit a little expensive). Nothing I can add that the travel books don't already say. Travel is convenient and weekend trips to neighboring countries are feasible. One aspect I appreciated was being able to hang around the locals who typically don't go out even on weekends (a lot of the Residential College students go home though).

Very English-friendly which is no surprise since it's their official language. I will say it can be hard to understand when Singaporeans speak really fast in Singlish, but they'll naturally adjust when they're talking to you.

Nothing surprising. The more you do, the more you'll spend. MRT/Bus are reasonable cost-wise but the costs do add up.
