Hello Nia,

There are 2 ways to be a Chartered Certified Accountant under the ACCA. One is to start with the CAT right after SPM and then go on to ACCA which will take a total of 3 years excluding the additional years of working experience in order to become an ACCA member. The other route is to take a pre-university qualification and finish with an accounting degree before taking on the ACCA exams which will take approximately 5 years excluding the additional years as well.

As you have already completed your Diploma in Accounting, it is best that you stick to the route of finishing up your Degree in Accounting before going on to ACCA. This is because once you have a degree in Accounting, you will be able to exempt yourself from up to 9 papers at the ACCA Fundamentals Level out of the total 14 papers. Besides that, a degree in Accounting will also equip you with broader skills outside the field of accounting, such as Economics and Investments. A pure ACCA candidate will miss out on these knowledge and skills.

We hope that this clarifies your dilemma and worries. We wish you all the best!

Hello Shelbie,

Yes, you can apply to UPSI with a diploma in Early Childhood Education from a private institution as the UPU website shows that this particular course allows for IPTS applicants. You can double confirm it here by clicking this link and choosing UPSI for the "Universiti Awam" category, and Diploma IPTS for the "Kategori" and "Aliran" categories. The courses shown will be courses that allow for IPTS diploma applicants.

Hello Melso,

The university will still continue to use your February MUET results until you decide to update it with your October results. However, if you have already been accepted into the degree programme with your February results, there should be no change in your study route even if you update your results.

Hope this helps :)

Hello Melso,

Can you tell us what you meant by MUET semester 1 and MUET semester 2? MUET is not semester based and only has one result. Are you referring to MUET on Demand (MOD) instead? If so, you do not have to worry about changing your results as both MUETs are official and do not need to be substituted.

Hope this helps :)

Hello Zahiruddin,

Electronics is usually defined as a sub-category of Electrical Engineering. Electrical engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with production and distribution of electricity, while electronic engineers design the components and circuitry that make-up the electronic equipment itself, and ensure that the product functions properly.

By right, it is better to take up E&E in comparison to only Electrical engineering as E&E encompasses both of these qualifications and you will be learning on a broader spectrum.

As for public universities that offer E&E, UMS, UTHM, UiTM and UPM all offer this course, so you do have choices on which university you want to go for.

Hope this helps :)

Hi Syazwani,

It seems like you know what course you want to be doing in degree later on and that is probably computer science. Since you already know what you want, if you check out the entry requirement for a degree in computer science, you only need 2Cs in at least 2 subjects including Mathematics in STPM. If you work backwards, it will be easier for you to gauge what subjects and stream you should be doing during your pre-u. You do not have to be in a science stream to study computer science. You can take whatever subjects and stream you want, as long as you obtain a C in Mathematics, you are eligible to apply for the course you want. If it's a hassle for you to change classes/schools, just remain in this class and ensure you meet the entry requirement.

Hope this helps. All the best in your studies! :)

Hi Shafika,

You can always finish up with a degree in marketing, but there are plenty of degree choices to choose from as well should you prefer to study in a different field. For example, you can apply for Architecture, Finance, IT, Quantity Surveying, and many more. However, you should do some research on whether the university that you are interested in accepts your diploma and allows for credit transfer.

Here is a sample university that accepts most diplomas depending on their CGPA and subjects taken:

Hey there Jainudin,

1) Well the fees for the Marketing and Law degree of Aberystwyth University in the UK would cost so much more in comparison to studying it here in Malaysia. Brickfields Asis College (BAC) has a collaboration with the university and offers a 3+0 programme. This means that you will complete 3 years of studies at BAC while obtaining your qualification at Aberystwyth University. It costs RM20,000 per year

2) There are no internal scholarships at the moment but you can apply for external ones offered by foundations and other companies. Browse through the list of scholarships here (https://afterschool.my/scholarship). As for loans you can apply for PTPTN or PPBU.

Hope this helps you and if you have any more query, just ask away :)

Hi Faiz,

There're 3 ways to apply to UM.
1) through UPU
2) second intake
3) international degree programme (IDP)

As for the first option, a diploma from a private university will give you limited options to choose from UM. You can head over to UPU's official website to check out the courses you're eligible to apply for here: https://online.mohe.gov.my/upu/epanduan/syarat/vMenuSyarat.php?jenprog=stpm&pagefunc=syaratByIPTA&carian1=M&carian2=E&carian3=E3

Second intakes allow students to directly apply to the university so this depends if the university accepts your qualification. You can try to call them to enquire about this as they are the ones who handle student admissions.

UM will accept your diploma from a private uni through IDP but do note that you will have to pay the fees similar to a private university as this is not subsidised by the government.

If money is not an issue and you really want to get in UM, IDP is the best option for you.

Hope this has clarified your doubts. Feel free to ask if you have any more queries
