nus的early offer,回报论坛上的前辈们以及坡国的学长

huhen09UID: 3369452

虽然去年暑假去nus参加一个项目(非学术)，但是确实是很偶然才申请的新加坡，所以直到被录取(去年9月初就收到应该是副系主任发的录取通知，只是拖到现在才给正式的录取通知)还不了解多少关于博士生项目以及nus教育方面的情况。在坛子上问过几点疑问，得到了热心的解答，后来又跟新加坡的学长聊过，受益匪浅。所以现在来回报社会来啦~希望提供的信息对之后申请的同学有点帮助。背景就不说了，因为觉得没有普遍的参考性。我把详细的录取信息贴在下面吧，感觉还是有点信息量的，尤其是对我这种后知后觉的人来说。比如我之前只问了是不是第一学期就可以考QE，不知道还规定要在前两年考完，我原本也不知道博士生最多读五年，听学长说一般需要读五年，还感觉和国内一样太过漫长，现在安心多了，至少不会动不动就读个七八年~

你的有消息了没，research scholarship一般都没有bond吧，而且拿research scholarship貌似每周要干10+小时的活的···

这次的邮件没有提当助教的时间要求，但是去年九月的那封邮件有提到(每周最多工作不超过6小时；而且我觉得当助教也不错啊，我现在已经给低年级学生讲过微积分和线性代数这种水课了；只是我的口语太烂，得狂补才行)：
The Research Scholarship carries a stipend of 2,000 Singapore dollars per month before passing the PhD qualifying exam, and 2,500 Singapore dollars per month after passing the qualifying exam. You are expected to work a few (not more than 6) hours per week as a grader or a teaching assistant, as required for all Research Scholarship holders of NUS.
