Indian students getting into NUS— questions?

Chance Me / Match Me

<p>Hi, I’m an Indian student living in a Gulf country, in my final year of school, intending to apply to NUS.
I understand that I will be needing to submit my CBSE grade XII Board Examination marks when I apply, and that co-curricular activities play a strong role in my acceptance, or otherwise.
I haven’t much chance to participate in co curricular activities all that much, besides intra school activities such as debating and dramas, captaincy in school and two inter school competitions.
My questions are-

  1. What is the general range of percentage that is accepted by the university?
    (I know that there is no specific cut off rate)
  2. What is the acceptance rate for international students?
  3. How badly will my lack of co curricular activities affect the outcome of my application?
  4. There is a scholarship for international students applying for undergraduate engineering programs called the Science and Technology— that applicants are automatically considered for. How many applicants on an average are able to secure this scholarship?</p>

<p>Any help would be great.
Thanks (:</p>

<p>NUS is quite selective. It is only slightly less selective than the very top American schools. </p>

<p>However, your lack of ECs should not hurt you as much. If you have extremely high stats, you will have a good chance at NUS.</p>
