Many students dream of furthering their studies abroad. It would most certainly be impressive to be awarded with academic qualifications from foreign universities. Most importantly, academic qualifications from foreign universities are typically known for attracting the attention of many large companies offering job opportunities with lucrative salaries. 

However, not everyone is fortunate enough to cover the high cost of education while studying abroad. Even with scholarships and loans, there are many other additional expenses to take into account which is why it becomes impossible for the majority to consider furthering their studies abroad. 

So, one of the ways to obtain an academic qualification abroad without having to further your studies there is through a foreign university branch campus (foreign campus) established in Malaysia.

For your information, foreign campuses operating in Malaysia offer a wide selection of study programs at the undergraduate level and postgraduate level. As an extensive branch to the main campus located abroad, the study programmes and syllabus are designed in such a way that it is exactly similar. You can relish the experience of studying abroad at the comfort of your own homeland. Moreover, foreign branch campuses in Malaysia are usually the top choice for study destination among students due to lower tuition fees and cost of living. This especially helps students who come from families with financial problems. 

However, good news for those of you who are still hoping for the opportunity to experience studying abroad, students are allowed to choose to study at the main campus located abroad for one or two semesters. Interestingly, even during the transfer programme where you study abroad for several semesters, you still pay a cheaper price which is your own branch campus tuition fee instead of the tuition fee set at the main campus abroad. 

In addition, foreign campuses offer opportunities to graduates who have completed their degree to further their studies at the postgraduate level at the university's main campus abroad.
