    It will be about 8000$ to 9000$ for having a master\u2019s degree from this university based on the subject the student is willing to pay for.<\/p>\n

    Accommodation cost<\/h3>\n

    The accommodation cost depends on the type of facility a student wants to have. This university has on-campus accommodation facilities which will cost around 50$ to 80$ per month.

    Requirement<\/h2>\n

    Admitting to Malaysian universities is a very easy task for foreign students. The requirement is very simple. The requirement basically varies from programme to programme and degree to degree.

    For a bachelor’s degree student needs to have a Higher Secondary Certificate or Alim certification with GPA above 3.0. or completed A level with a minimum D grade in 2 subjects and the student passed O level with mathematics and English or having equivalent certification. If the student completed a diploma having subjects related to the bachelor’s degree, they can apply for the bachelor’s degree.<\/p>\n

    \nFor the master\u2019s programme students need to have a bachelor’s degree with a minimum 2.50 CGPA (It may be changed according to the degree)<\/p>\n

    English Language Proficiency<\/h3>\n

    For international students having good proficiency in English is very important. Though Malaysian universities are very flexible in this case. But, you need to somehow prove your skill in the English language either by showing your IELTS test <\/a>score \/ TOEFL \/ equivalent or participating in any programme provided by the university.<\/p>\n

    A student will need a 5.0 to 6.0 IELTS or equivalent test score. If a student does not have any such test score, the MMU English placement test needs to be participated by the student. Otherwise, the student will have to have an English course as another option.<\/p>\n

    How to Apply<\/h2>\n

    The application process for being admitted to the university is done online. For applying a student needs to check his\/her eligibility for the degree he\/she is applying for. Student needs to have a passport, academic transcripts, certificates, and language proficiency test<\/a> record, After completing the application within a few days MMU will issue an offer letter or a conditional letter.<\/p>\n

    \nThen the student will have to complete the acceptance form and health declaration form. Students will need an affidavit if the student has a difference in name and age between the certificate and passport. All the instructions given by the Login Portal will have to be followed by the student. The process of Student Pass application needs about 2 months to be completed. After the student pass (Visa Approval Letter (VAL)) is completed the student will be notified by MMU by email with the softcopy of the VAL. Then students need to collect the entry visa from the Malaysian Embassy.<\/p>\n

    Actually, the application step needs to be taken very seriously by the students. Most of the cases due to slight mistakes a student loses the possibility of getting admitted into a Malaysian university.
