I would have to apply for on-campus housing, and while not guaranteed, it is likely that I would receive it.

If not, what is the neighborhood like around NUS? Are there apartment buildings? Is there nightlife that students frequent?

Singapore is clearly a dense, active city, but if the campus is in a boring part of the city, that might dissuade me.
