Holds PhD in Packing

Hey, I am looking to go on exchange for the winter semester of next year. I have to chose three universities that I would like to go to, and then they 'match' me to one of them. After researching a bit into it, I think I would like to go to Singapore. I was wondering if anyone has done an exchange there? I am looking at the National University of Singapore.

Basically, I am especially interested in what the accommodations are like. How expensive it is to live there. What laws I might need to know so I don't get in a lot of trouble. Anything really. How hard the coursework is. How easy it is to travel to other countries while there.

I am an international relations student and I think I am going to be doing an Asian Studies minor, so this is basically right up with what I want to do.

If I don't get into Singapore, I am also considering my other two options to be Hong Kong and South Korea. This is because all three of these universities teach in English, and I don't speak any other language than English fluently. However, I am looking to learn Chinese while I am there.

I have also never been to Asia, much less lived there. So I am in desperate need of any information!

Thanks guys!
