educational institutions to offer complete foreign university degree
programmes (from the partner universities) in Malaysia.

- Since 1998, 5 international reputable universities have set up their
branch campuses in Malaysia and offered their own courses to students
(both local and international) in order that these students can acquire
identical university qualifications at a lower education cost in
Malaysia. For example, the tuition fee of a 3-year UK Engineering Degree
is priced at about USD24,500.

- The cost of living for international students to study in Malaysia could
be as low as RM10,000 which is approximately US$2,632 per annum (the
cost of living in the city is about 10% higher). As such, the low living
cost besides the cheaper tuition fee would appeal to both international
and local students in terms of great savings of living expenses while

- There are off-campus and on-campus accommodations, at reasonable rate,
for international students as well as out-of-town local students. These

also located within walking distance to the institutions.

- There is a New Reservation Policy
on the anvil, which has already got approval from both the Houses of
Parliament and has also taken the shape of a New Legislation

and Government aided Institutions in India is now going to be
increased to an Appx. 67% + for
Schedule Castes, Tribes and OBCs
- There are separate reservation quotas for Management, Defense, Sports,
Disabled and many others resulting in substantial reduction in the open
category seats.

- Seats in open category are very less and the demand is very huge, which
has resulted in a very high percentage of minimum reqd. marks for
admission in good institutes (as high as 97% to 99%)
- Many a times it results in temporary/ permanent Depression or mental
illness and suicides etc.
- In Malaysia, the population is manageable, there are no reservation
quotas and all the seats are open seats. Also,most of the Universities have minimum three
Intakes.
- A student does not require very high scores for a course and University
of choice.The mental peace and creativity of a young mind is not at
stake due to above explained problems as in Indian conditions which
results in much better and optimum performance from a student.

the Foundation year ( equivalent to ‘A’ Level ) of the desired
stream and then shall proceed to

study programmes conducted at the private higher educational

Malaysia is that the holders of student pass or permit are allowed to
work while studying to supplement their living. Subject to others
immigration requirements, students are allowed to work part-time for a
maximum of 20 hours per week only during semester breaks or holidays of
more than 7 days.
