nus academic calendar​ 10 28

The NUS academic calendar is a practical tool for tracking school terms, holidays, and exam periods. The academic year is split into two main parts: Semester 1 (August–December) and Semester 2 (January–May).

Within each semester, there are weeks dedicated to teaching, followed by a reading week and then exams. Special terms run during the summer break, giving flexibility for internships, overseas programmes, or extra coursework.

Major events like orientation week, add/drop deadlines, and commencement ceremonies are also marked. Students should double-check with their department for any differences in course-specific schedules.

For up-to-date information, always refer to the official NUS academic calendar online before making travel or internship plans.

For anyone at NUS—whether you’re planning classes, exams, or here holidays—the academic calendar is your essential guide to staying organised throughout the year.
