5 more reasons to study in Malaysian private institutions

Should you save up for a private education?

These days Millennials have to be so much money wiser than preceding generations and need to be careful when choosing a tertiary option.

Contrary to popular belief, a private college and university education should not be the last resource for those who missed out on UPU enrollment.

So what were the first 3 reasons to consider private institutions?

Here are more amazing reasons to consider investing in a private college/university degree programme:

1. Proven track record

Branch Campuses are foreign universities that set up their campus in Malaysia with educators and management staff imported from where they came from.

The certificates offered are identical to the ones offered in the main campus which are already historically established in their own respective lands of origin.

2. Stamp of approval

Private institutions in Malaysia are required to adhere to the Malaysian Qualifications Framework (MQF) which then will allow institutions to be approved by the Ministry of Higher Education.

3. Lucrative scholarships

Private institutions are closely tied with corporations and foundations which allow them to provide higher amounts of financial aid in forms of scholarships and tuition fee exemptions for students who choose to study there.

Go ahead and type out the name of a famous private institution in the scholarship search box and see it for yourself ;)

4. Access to a strong alumni

With a rich mix of students from different kind of backgrounds, graduates get to network and build a strong alumni culture. The network effect alone may lead to career opportunities that make the extra tuition more than payoff handsomely.

5. Higher opportunity for overseas studies

Aside from partnerships with universities abroad, there are exclusive programmes offered by private institutions that not only make it easy to continue studies abroad, but also get a foreign degree in the comforts of your own motherland.
