Hi Xin JIe,
The fees for the degree in accounting differs from one institution to another therefore you have to be specific as to which institutions you would like to enquire about in regards to pursuing your studies in that field. For example:
Curtin University, Malaysia
Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting): RM 67,200 for a full time 3 year course.
Infrastructure University Kuala Lumpur (IUKL)
Bachelor of Accountancy (Hons): RM 54,000 for a full time 3 and a half year course.
International University of Malaya-Wales (IUMW)
Bachelor of Accounting (Hons): RM 55,500 for a full time 3 year course.

Hi Farah,

You can browse through the scholarship list here and see which ones you are eligible to apply for: https://afterschool.my/scholarship If none of them are suitable for you, you can also apply for the university's internal scholarship once you get a placement there.

Good luck!

Hi Farah,

Yes, you are still eligible for your next choice. You had 8 choices to apply during UPU right? If you failed the interview, they will move on to your next choice. Let's say, Mass Comm was your third choice and you failed the interview, they will consider your fourth choice after that.

Good luck!

entahla

Hi Farah,

Unfortunately, you cannot. Foundation programmes are designed for students to pursue their degree in the same institution. This applies even more so to Foundation programmes at public universities other than UM and UiTM because they are closed Asasi programmes. Only students enrolled in the open Asasi programmes that is available in UM and UiTM are eligible to apply for degree in other public universities. Asasi programmes are not recognised overseas.

Hope this answers your question.

Hi Toh,

That would not be the best option for you. If you have set your sights on practicing Medicine in Malaysia, it's best to do your entire study programme and housemanship in Malaysia itself because of the recognition. Malaysia only recognise some Medical degrees from overseas institutions. All Medical graduates are required to be registered with the Malaysian Medical Council to practice Medicine in Malaysia. According to MMC, medical graduates who hold a basic medical degree from institutions not listed in the Second Schedule, Medical Act 1971, he or she will be required to sit and pass the Examination for Provisional Registration (EPR) that consists of theory and clinical components. This exam is held twice a year.

So technically, you can study overseas and practice here, but you'll need to take the exam first to ensure that you meet the requirements of a doctor and know how its done in Malaysia. You can check out if your university is listed here: http://www.mmc.gov.my/index.php/list-of-medical-institution

Furthermore, all Medical Officers in Malaysia MUST undergo housemanship before they can become a doctor.

Hope this helps.

Hi Aliya,

Actuarial Science graduates go on to become Actuaries, Financial Analysts, Cost Estimators or Accountants. Actuaries are vital in especially insurance companies as they are the professionals utilising mathematical and statistical methods to assess risk in the insurance and finance industries. Their expertise is needed to set the cost of an insurance plan for a client. Insurance companies are mushrooming everywhere and if the amount of insurance agents are also increasing. This shows that Actuaries are in demand.

However, we would like to clarify that this is a very difficult course to study. But don't worry, with a little more effort, determination and passion, you will be able to be a good one :) Click here to find out more about this course: https://afterschool.my/actuarial-science

Hi Foo Yoong,

The top engineering universities in Malaysia are UM, UKM, UPM, USM, UTM and UTP according to Times Higher Education and QS World University Rankings. If you want to limit it to only those in Kuala Lumpur, then there are not many choices to choose from. Institutions in Kuala Lumpur offering this course are UCSI, Herriot-Watt, TAR UC, UniKL, UM and Nottingham. The best among these is, of course, UM.

Hope this helps.
