Received a NUS email informing us about this programme: Korea University International Summer Campus (ISC) 2008 Programme. After hearing rave reviews about this programme from Eileen who went last year, I decided that I wanted to participate too. However, I had a few queries regarding my eligibility of application via NUS because this is counted as SEP(Student Exchange Programme) but I'm slated to participate in another SEP programme later this year. The reason being that one student is only allowed to go on SEP once. At the end of the email, we were told to contact IRO(some NUS organisation) for more information and that the deadline for application was 10th March 2008.
So...I did. I emailed IRO on the 28th of February 2008 and waited for their reply. I seriously do not know what's wrong with NUS but NUS is so freaking slow and the staff are so non-responsive. They replied me on 12th March 2008. WTF! Applications closed le lo! The best thing is that the email told me to ask my faculty's SEP Coordinator...Like that must take so long to reply meh?! Damn fucking helpful I must say.
This episode adds to the long list of reasons of why I want to graduate from NUS ASAP and that NUS has freaking low efficiency. I should've gone to NTU or SMU instead...seriously.
How can NUS get such a high ranking as a world-class university when their efficiency is worse than people on strike?! Oh wait, whether the university is efficient or not does not contribute to that ranking. If it's included, NUS can jolly well fall off the ranking.
(Edit) I emailed IRO back to 'thank' them for the reply. Had the urge to write 'Thank you for the PROMPT reply' but decided against it because it sounded a little rude.
