u another one dun bother to read up on official published
information on www.ns.sg
there is a module in there called "MY ORD" which is
compulsory to do and read prior to ord...
extracted from 'my ord' module:
If you are a full-time undergraduate student at a local
Institute of Higher Learning (IHL) i.e. NUS, NTU or SMU, you will
not be disrupted on grounds of studies. Instead, your call-up will
be scheduled within specified 'IHL Blackout window' during the
universities' semester vacation periods. These periods are mutually
agreed between the universities and MINDEF for full-time
undergraduate students to attend In-Camp Trainings (ICTs).
actually it is depending on the previous unit during NSF. If it
is a combat unit like arty/armour/SIR, then this will apply, cos
they want everyone to be back together as a unit for ICT. But for
other vocations such as storeman/driver/technician/service
vocations etc, there should be another case.
In my case, i ORD in 95 as an ammo technician, work for one year
before entering NUS. They (2 PDF) call me up in 96. i got a
letter from NUS certifying i am a full time student and send it to
them. They acknowledge and send me letter telling me that i have
been posted out from that reservist unit and then inform me that
once i have graduated, must inform them immediately. but now dunno
is it the same situation or not.
