Deadlines and intakes
Intakes vary by institution. Universiti Malaya has two: September (Semester I), with an application deadline of 17 June, and February (Semester II), with a deadline of 11 November. Many private universities and branch campuses run additional intakes during the year.
Allow for the Student Pass. Your institution cannot apply until you have accepted your offer and paid what it requires, and you cannot travel until you hold your eVAL. Apply to the institution at least four months before the intake.
Language you need
Degree programmes at universities and branch campuses are commonly taught in English. Universiti Malaya's published minimums for undergraduate entry are IELTS Academic 5.0, TOEFL iBT 60 or PTE Academic 41, with higher requirements for some science, engineering and professional programmes. Private universities and branch campuses set their own, often higher. Check the programme page.
Malay is the national language and is used in government offices. International students at many institutions take a compulsory Malay language course as part of their degree.
