Hi Shazal,
Unfortunately in order to be eligible to pursue a degree in Computer Science, you will need at least a credit in SPM/O-level Additional Mathematics, no matter what pre-university qualification you hold. But if you are interested in pursuing a Diploma in Computer Science, Nilai University and Lincoln University College are among some universities that offer the course. You may be eligible to enter if you have at least 3 credits including Math in SPM/O-levels.
Hope this helps!

Fret not! There are other universities that offer a degree in Architecture, like Infrastructure University Kuala Lumpur (IUKL) and University College of Technology Sarawak, that you can apply to now! If those aren't to your liking, you can look also look for other universities that offer the course here.
