What do you guys think about Yale NUS?

<p>Apparently it is some new thing they are starting this year....it is a liberal arts school in singapore that is technically part of "Yale". Hmmmm....anybody interested? I wonder though, if academic standards will be as high as Yale's.</p>

<p>D1 has a friend who graduated with her who is part of the Admissions staff, he’s been there a year now getting things ready.</p>

<p>Here’s a recent NYT article about the college and some of the controversy surrounding it:</p>

<p>I’m applying there, especially because of the new facilities and seemingly awesome residential colleges. But then I’m applying to NUS and Yale too. :P</p>
