SINGAPORE - Students from the National University of Singapore (NUS) will have a new system to register for modules, starting next August, that may not require them to bid for what they want to study in a new semester.

In a circular sent to students on Tuesday (July 17) that was seen by The Straits Times, the university said it will be implementing a new system from the 2019/2020 academic year, which will enable them to "better manage module selections based on your needs and preferences".
