iPod you can just bring it along. But do take care of it well. Don't wanna drop it anywhere right.

Laptop is really a risky business. You can lock em in your wardrobe but locks that small is not that hard to break.

I'm not trying to psych you, but laptop is just plain dangerous to bring. I did brought it last semester, but I stayed in Cendi and always locked my room whenever I'm out. I also used those laptop lock and anchor it to my table/bed.

So until you befriend your roommate well and able to trust him, there's always a risk. Best is to be prepared. Lock your drawer and wardrobe. Make sure to use those laptop locks as well. Anchor it like I've said previously. And most important, do keep your room locked all the time if there's no one in that room. Lock it even if there's other people in the house (housemates).

Some people can be very trustworthy. Like last semester I had a new housemate. Never knew them but one of them just put his laptop in the living room. Open space, easy for anyone to grab. But me and my friends really ain't gonna do anything to it and of course it remain safe till the semester ended. But not all are as with my friend's case. He stays outside but still can be used as an example as staying with unknown people. Lost his wallet, laptop and handphone. A really sad case.

My advice is, better safe than sorry. Lock all your belonging. Chain, padlock, anything you can think of to keep em safe. Once you think you can trust your roommate, then you can loosen up a little. But that depends on your own judgment whether he can be trusted or not.

Tough.. well... you do have to wake up early, sleep late. A lot of group stuff. More towards boring. Very boring. Oh depending on the behavior of your batch mate, you can also get scolded quite a lot.

There are two days for registration. Saturday and Sunday. For saturday's, means you have a lot more time looking around uniten and do some simple shopping before settling in.

I don't know bout listening em during orientation, but no, you won't be bullied by anyone lol.

haha nahh. For as long as I was in UNITEN, never heard of a case senior bullying freshies. Well I didn't at least lol

Nope. There's no selection of roommate. They will put you in random rooms. But I believe they won't mix races. I think.

By the way, its not choosing lecturer, more to choosing class (section). Some subject may only have 1 lecturer but many section. For that, well, live with it

Nope. Even I tried applied when brother already having it. I didn't get it. Resort to PTPTN instead. Its 1 person per IPTA. If IPTS then can apply alongside your brother.

called? My dad is a retiree and we went straight to YTN office. My dad 'thoroughly' scold them but alas, no can do. TNB staff just means you can get full loan without trouble. Not 2 at once.

Very true.


By the way, with all the talks on the safety of your belongings during orientation, afterward you will have class. And all those stuff, laptop included, will be left in your room. So laptop owners, plan well. Very well on how to secure your laptops.

well it depends on your luck. When I entered UNITEN, I myself brought a PC but my roommate/friend brought a laptop. And as far as I know he never used laptop locks. Safe and sound his laptop is until he got kicked out (about 2 years and it was while we were still in Amanah). And of course, he just leave it on the table. We do of course practice 'always lock the door when both of us are not around'.

Haha no need to exaggerate. Like mhyug said, CGPA below 2.0, say bye bye to UNITEN and that's what happen to my friend. A sad case really. Better watch out though. I think he's lurking in LYN somewhere lol

On a much more serious note, I have seen many, and I mean MANY been kicked out of UNITEN due to below par results. And yes, mostly they are from Engineering courses. Only knew a couple of guys got kicked out from IT course. So engine students, study properly. And I do mean that. Your paper later on will be invaluable to your career later on but reaching there is not going to be easy. So while enjoying the life as students, don't neglect your studies.

I think scholar will settle all your tuition fees. Other fees are

Misc Fees: RM140
Apartment: depends on which kelompok

Yes. you need to repeat the subject before you can go to degree

I don't remember the exact breakdown. You can check it when UNITEN mail your house with the invoice. But as far as I know:

1. Library Fees
2. Facilities
