    • Theme Rooms (Blue and Red): closed until further notice.

    • Makers' Studio: closed until further notice.

    • Chua Thian Poh Hall (CTPH): closed until further notice.

  • Residential facilities - managed by the Residential Assistants (RAs)

    • Lounges: up to 2 people may occupy it at any one time, observing 1m distancing requirements. RAs will manage a booking system with limited time for each use.

    • Pantries: Up to 2 persons may use a pantry, subject to social distancing measures. Clean up thoroughly after you use the pantry. If you find it in a mess, please let your RA/RF know and we will investigate the footage on the CCTV. If a 3rd person needs to use the pantry for transient affairs (e.g., refilling water, taking something from the fridge), that is permitted.

    • Laundry rooms: Please keep your laundry activities brief and do not linger.

    • Dining hall: There is currently no provision for dining in. This will be updated once the semester resumes.

General safe management measures (SMM)

  • Visitors and interaction with Fellow Residents: No non-resident visitors are allowed in the college, including non-resident USP students. This will be updated soon, especially in relation to the process of moving in at the start of August.

  • Masks: You must wear masks once you are outside of your room, including when you are out to use facilities. This also applies if you stay in the suite.

  • Visitors in room: Up to 1 resident visitor in your room is allowed at any one time. However you are not allowed to eat together in your room.

  • Lifts: A maximum of 6 persons is allowed in a lift at any one time. There are social distancing markers on the floor in the Lobby - please queue up according to the markers.
