About N-House

Home for Entrepreneurial Minds

NUS eNterprise House (N-House) is an entrepreneurship-themed residence managed by the NUS Overseas Colleges (NOC) and part of NUS Enterprise. Living in N-house with like-minded student entrepreneurs provides students with opportunities to share and apply their entrepreneurial skills through various activities as they develop their business enterprises. N-House application is only open for NOC Inbound programme students from KTH and Nagoya University as reciprocal housing agreement has been arranged. There are other housing options for students which is out of campus and our manager can advise you further on this.

Who can join N-House?

  • NOC Alumni, who have completed the programme and are still NUS undergraduates
  • NOC Students, who are still on the NOC programme. Note that your internships should be based in Singapore (either NOC Singapore programme or remote internship)

 

Note:
Due to overwhelming interest and limited capacity of N-House, only current students returning from NOC will be invited to apply for N-House. For example, October's application for upcoming January Semester 2 stay will only be extended to NOC students from January (year-long programme) and August (6-months programme) intake of that year. Exceptions could be granted to previous batches / N-House seniors, dependent on performance and NOC team's decision.
