Note:
In general, you are not advised to travel between Apr-Jul (for August Intake) / Oct-Dec (for January Intake) as there are NOC activities that require your presence (absence could result to withdrawal or you being not accepted by the NOC programme in the end). There will also be urgent NOC activities such as visa application, insurance briefing, programme manager’s briefing and CV writing workshop (for e.g.: CV writing workshop for NOC Israel will be conducted in Singapore) which will require you to be in Singapore. If you complete your internship placement, have applied for your visa and have also attended the NOC briefings, workshop and etc, there may be small windows where you can take a short vacation for a week or so prior to final pre-departure briefing, visa collection and departure. Selected students can only check for the available dates with programme manager after we link you up with the programme manager and of course after you have been officially offered by NOC.
