Malaysia Education

Study in Malaysia 

Hi Friends,

Many queries have come to me on their interest to pursue higher education in Malaysia. Chinese foreign students have increased tremendously since a decade ago when they became more affluent. Education in Malaysia became more affordable relatively due to currency appreciation of other higher education hubs, such as Australia, has made tuition fees more expensive as well as a higher cost of living.

Why choose Malaysia to further your overseas study destination? Here are the top three reasons to study in Malaysia:

Work part time while studying – For international students, you must have a valid Student Pass and be on a semester break of more than 7 days. This allows you to work up to 20 hours a week with a student work permit approval from Malaysian Immigration Office. Please note that this is under very strict guidelines and you should consult Student Services on this matter.

Low Cost of Living – Highly subsidised necessity goods means lower cost of living for overseas students living in Malaysia. Feedback that we got was students with a decent lifestyle spent around RM 10, 000 to RM 15,000, including accommodation. Rental rate for a room in Malaysia could go as low as RM 200 a month.

Holiday while studying - With all the places of attraction in Malaysia and scrumptious Malaysian cuisines and cheap flights around Malaysia make good sense.
