For Prospective Members

How do i join wsc?
  • Volunteer recruitment will be conducted during the first few weeks of the new academic year. Students can visit WSC booths during NTU Welcome Week to find out more about our 18 portfolios and the social causes we promote. Interested applicants will need to go through recruitment interviews with the portfolios of their choice.
  • All the details can be found on our NTU WSC Instagram Page which will be posted nearing the annual Recruitment Drive.
IF I MISSED THE ANNUAL RECRUITMENT, CAN I STILL JOIN WSC?
  • WSC only recruits new volunteers at the start of every academic year. You may write in to wsc-hongensec@e.ntu.edu.sg to state your interest in any of the 19 portfolios and the portfolio will notify you if there is any vacancy.
  • However, WSC still provides volunteering opportunities that are open to all NTU and NIE students. Find out more on our NTU WSC Telegram Channel.
ARE THERE ANY EVENTS FOR ME TO VOLUNTEER EVEN IF I AM NOT A MEMBER OF WSC?
  • Yes. WSC has events that are opened to non-members.
  • Volunteer Management (VM) organizes various events annually such as Kids’ World and Golden Generation, to encourage more NTU and NIE students to volunteer.
  • Other portfolios under WSC such as RSP (Deaf Community) and RSP (Physically Challenge) may have volunteering opportunities opened to the public from time to time. Do keep a lookout for updates via our Instagram Page.
AFTER JOINING AS A WSC MEMBER, WHAT CAN I EXPECT?
  • You can look forward to a fulfilling academic year ahead in serving the service users under your portfolio and bonding with your portfolio members as well. Other than that, you may also anticipate meeting the rest of club members from other portfolios through annual events – Welcome Tea, Lunar New Year Celebrations, Exam Welfare Pack giveaway as well as participating in Social Impact Week (organised by Growth & Opportunities!). And last but not least, Annual Appreciation Dinner!
