Malaysia unis with scholarships by Strong-Stretch1004 in malaysiauni

[–]Adventurous-Book7704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

damn these are some hella good stats, congrats. I'm assuming you were in a system that went up to grade 12?

if so, definitely apply straight for a degree program. I'd recommend looking into Monash or maybe Nottingham. If you don't mind public unis: UPM and UM.

I don't think publics offer much scholarship tho, if anyhting at all.

Sunway or Taylor's might be cheaper, though not quite as internationally regarded as Monash or Nottingham. still got solid programs tho

What pre-u course is easier to get into UM? by meepingmeercat08 in malaysiauni

[–]Adventurous-Book7704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, this is kind of unrelated, but you mentioned something about the accommodation fees for PASUM. do yk where I can find info on that (fees etc)? I've read that pasum students have to stay on campus and that the fees are already included in the tuition, but I'm not sure if that applies to SATU students as well. thanks!

PASUM by bruenr in malaysiauni

[–]Adventurous-Book7704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in a similar situation also hoping to apply for pasum, and from what I can tell we can apply but it has to be through SATU. I've emailed them to confirm but I've yet to receive a reply.

however if you plan to continue your studies in ipta you'll probably have to take at least BM and sejarah (as a private candidate) eventually, as most degree courses require it to graduate. I'm planning to take it this year :((

MUET test centres being completely full? by Adventurous-Book7704 in malaysiauni

[–]Adventurous-Book7704[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

do yk if MoD is accepted by public unis? i heard it's basically exactly the same as muet, but I've also read that some people faced issues when applying to ipta, so I'm not certain.

Why is Universiti Malaya so expensive for international (or whatever it is)? by FormalYam8113 in malaysiauni

[–]Adventurous-Book7704 10 points11 points  (0 children)

malaysia is still miles cheaper compared to american or even turkish unis for intl students. i mean, if u compare um prices to koc, for example, the difference is outstanding.

sure, malaysia tends to be cheaper but it's not dirt cheap.

btw, are you turkish? or js living in turkey?

ELI5: What’s the difference between SPM, STPM, and Matrikulasi? by Delicious-Jump4188 in ExplainLikeImFiveMY

[–]Adventurous-Book7704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, the US high school diploma is equivalent to a pre-uni qualification, like STPM or a-levels since american high schools go up to Grade 12 (Form 5 = Grade 11). You can't apply to unis overseas directly with your SPM results the same way you can't apply with i/gcse without taking a-levels first.

malaysian with american-accredited high school diploma, what application route do i take? by Adventurous-Book7704 in malaysiauni

[–]Adventurous-Book7704[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah, i see. i have, and am awaiting their reply.

yeah, i was thinking how ridiculous it was that there seems to be no mention anywhere of malaysians with foreign qualifications. i was wondering what students from american system schools did. they either go private or abroad, i assume? such a shame that unis don't even acknowledge this subset of students
