Nanyang Junior College was established in 1977 as Singapore's second junior college, originally known as Lorong Chuan Junior College. In 1978, with approval from Singapore's Ministry of Education, the college was renamed Nanyang Junior College and became government-funded, establishing itself as an important institution in Singapore's education system. Located on a hilltop, the college is often shrouded in mist and clouds, earning it the nickname "White Cloud Hill." This natural scenery has not only become a symbol of the college but also serves as inspiration for its drama society. The college motto is "Building Together," and its emblem features a white lion standing on waves against a red background, symbolizing the unity and innovation of students from diverse backgrounds. Nanyang Junior College offers a two-year university preparatory program, with students taking the Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level examinations. The curriculum covers science, arts, and commerce subjects, with difficulty levels categorized as H1, H2, and H3. Since 1997, the college has offered the Art Elective Programme (AEP), becoming one of only two junior colleges in Singapore to provide this program, aimed at cultivating artistic talent. In 1999, the college introduced the Chinese Language Elective Programme, adding subjects such as Higher Chinese Comprehension and Composition (GSC) and H3 Chinese Literature, dedicated to fostering bilingual elites. After the 2006 education reform, the college abolished the traditional division between arts and science streams, allowing students to choose courses based on their interests, further enhancing curriculum flexibility.

In 2012, the college renovated its library, adding independent learning areas; in 2013, classroom desks and chairs were updated; between 2014 and 2015, the cafeteria was upgraded and equipped with projection facilities to support large events. Additionally, the college implements flexible campus policies, such as allowing students to wear informal uniforms (like class T-shirts) on Wednesdays and Fridays, and delaying morning assemblies to 8:30 AM for certain grades to reduce academic pressure.

Sports activities include badminton, basketball, and dragon boat teams, emphasizing the development of teamwork. Aesthetic activities include the Chinese Cultural Society, Chinese Orchestra, and Choir, committed to preserving Chinese culture.
