My first question, whats the difference between
• BSc (Hons) Information Systems
• BSc (Hons) Information Technology

The difference lies in the subjects taken and the overall focus. Do have a look at the Computer Technology Brochure

The BSc (Hons) Information Technology tends to be more technical with focus on programming/networking and software development.

The BSc (Hons) Information Systems has a broader focus on how technology can be applied in a business environment with focus on e-commerce and business intelligence systems.

What can I do after I completed my CAT?

What are the differences between BSc (Hons) Psychology and Bachelor of Psychology?

Do we have to take any Science subjects in order to enter BSc (Hons) Psychology?

What are the fees needed for the MUFY course? And where else can you go with it other than Monash University?

how much the cost for CAT ? what university approves that?

How much is A-levels for Science subjects?

If to compare the course consultant's professionalism and quality, I would say Sunway Uni College is far better than University of Nottingham.

Well...you can continue on to finish your ACCA. Are you talking about other options?

Thank you for your comment We work hard to help to the best we can

If you are taking a combination of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology then your total will come up to ~RM25K. This includes the tuition fee, laboratory fees, internal assessment fees and etc. It excludes the external examination fee paid to Cambridge.

There is very little difference between BSc(Hons) Psychology and Bachelor of Psychology in that they are purely focused on Psychology with little to no external subjects (like business, general education, mathematics, etc.). Subjects will differ from university to university. Different universities will also have different ways of naming their degree.

The (Hons) will also indicate the system where in Sunway, with our tie to Lancaster, UK, we refer to the UK system of (Hons). Therefore, our syllabus is a collaboration with Lancaster and isn't in-bred. Being science based will also indicate the method of study and the syllabus.

Do have a look at our Psychology brochure

CAT is a professional accounting programme. Therefore, it isn't tied to the approval of a university. Rather it is tied to a professional body known as ACCA.

The cost for CAT will vary on centre, because you will be paying for the tuition/workshop fees and not the actual examination fee. The examination fee is determined by ACCA not the centre itself.

In Sunway, the fee for CAT will be RM11K++ excluding the external examination fee which will vary based on the UK pound.

The MUFY programme will allow you to go to all local private universities and also to most Australian universities. We have had students entering the University of Melbourne through the MUFY programme.

The cost for the programme will vary starting from RM20K++ depending on the subjects you take.

Do have a look at our MUFY brochure

To enter ICAEW can I use degrees from other universities or must the degree be from Sunway University College?

Yeah, other options besides ACCA. Thanks, I would love to know more.

You can use a degree from any nationally accredited university to enter ICAEW. So it depends on which degree you hold.

From CAT, you can also continue to a Business/Accounting degree.

so is this how the path way looks like?

CAT --> Degree --> ACCA ( if i wish to take ACCA after Degree )

and , can i get the exemption of 9 papers at the Fundamentals level if i go for CAT --> Degree --> ACCA ?

This post has been edited by shiangyi: Dec 31 2009, 11:52 AM

Can I do both ACCA and Degree at the same time?

The exemptions for ACCA will depend on the arrangement with the university and ACCA. But most Accounting degrees do get exemptions. The number of exemptions again depends on the degree. For Business degrees, there are little to no exemptions most of the time.

oh ok..


1) so for the Accounting Degrees , we dont need to go for Diploma in order to study the Degree right? we can also study the CAT first and then only go for Accounting Degrees right ?


2) and the Communication Skills in Business (CSB) , do we take the exam with CAT or we take the exam before we take the CAT?

Only after completion of the degree will you get ACCA exemptions (9 papers). Therefore, it will be better to complete your degree first.

---

Added on December 31, 2009, 1:07 pm1) Yes, you can. It will be subject to your CAT results. You will need to ensure that you pass all your papers. It will also depend on the different university's entry requirements.

2) The Communication Skills in Business (CSB) foundation is taken concurrently with the course. So as you study for your CAT papers, you will be improving your Communication Skills.

ok ~ thanks alot for the info .

Do they offer scholarship?

Yes, there are scholarships available. Do have a look at our Scholarship Brochure

wow! we need more threads like this!

thumbs up!

too bad i cant go sunway =(

stuck in form6

You can come to Sunway after Form 6

if i took the CAT already and then i take the BSc ( Hons ) Accounting and Finance , which year do i enter to ? Year 1 , Year 2 or Year 3 ?

"Full tuition fees waiver" for A-levels, how much is that actually?

i have just applied for ACCA at sunway. didn't know there is a degree for accounting at sunway. how long does it take to complete the degree at sunway? is it advisable to go for ACCA straight instead of the degree. I have A levels in science subjects.

do you answer hostel related questions? I would like to know more about the laundry services at sun -u apartment. do they provide dryer machine or only washing machine? what about the rate for Dobi's?

I'm interested in the American Degree Transfer Program.
Again, what are the fees? Is it for example RM xxxx per annum or per month, et cetera?

And is it too late if I apply for it now? I've just finished my SPM.
Can I apply with just my trial results?
And can I apply for the January intake?

What are the differences between a B.Sc (Bachelor of Science) in Engineering and a BEng (Bachelor in Engineering)?

Pardon me for barraging you with a multitude of questions, but I'm just really curious. =)

how long the duration for a-level?

I think it's about 1.5 to 2 years.

how much the fees for Sunway Foundation in Arts ya?

I'm in Sunway ADTP myself You're not too late. I have friends who joined us using their trial results. As long as the classes haven't started (actually even when classes have only just started), you can still join. Orientation is next week 7th Jan if i remember correctly. You can always drop by the ADTP office for further inquiries. Our head of program Ms Sumitha is SUPER helpful

Is there any consequences, if a student take tuition outside Sunway-tes on a paper of ACCA ? will it affects the job opportunity? and will the college assists students on job applications to Big 4 upon completion of ACCA?

BACHELOR OF BUSINESS (TWINNING PROGRAMMES/ 3+0)

can i apply for PTPTN loan for this course?

Cool! Thanks a lot. =D
What course are you in? You might be my senior. =D
Do you know how the payment is like though? I'm clueless about the fees.
Thanks in advance. =)

We pay by semester. 1 year got 2 long semesters and 1 short semester. Each semester the amount you pay is slightly different depending on the number of subjects you take. Different number of subjects = different number of credit hours. 1 credit hour is around RM480-ish, i forgot the actual numbers.

Usually we take 4 courses during the long semester. Let's say each course is 3 credit hours, 4x3=12, 12x480=RM5760, not including admin fees, lab fees and the likes.

Hope this helps. I'll be helping out with the orientation. See you there if you decide to join us!

I see. Well, that clears things up a lot for me. =)
How do you find college life at Sunway? Food, the people there, etc?

And by the way, what do they actually mean by 'credit hours'?
I've never really grasped the whole idea. Thanks again!

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_credit

It really depends on what sort of ppl you mingle with. ADTP is a mix of a very diverse group of ppl. I personally love the international community here. My best friends are from Korea and Vietnam, and of course there're plenty of Malaysians, Nigerians etc. etc. Like i said, your college experience could be very different from mine even when we're studying in the same course, depending on who you hang out with

The lecturers are easy to talk to, and some of them are highly qualified. I enjoy the classes much more than high school and A-Levels. Though if you're new into this, it might take some getting used to, cuz we're 60% coursework and 40% final exam.

Food wise, i find it adequate enough. There're 3 coffee shops, Orange, Pink and White. A small restaurant that goes by the name "Lunch Box" and a big food court across the road called Rock Cafe/Medan that offers a variety of choices, in addition to our in-campus cafeteria

Orange, Pink and White?
It sounds a really fun thing to do. And i don't mind the 60% coursework. I've always preferred coursework over exams.
When u said u enjoyed doing this more than A-levels, does that mean you did A-levels before?
What course are you doing now by the way?

so, does Bachelor of Psychology has twinning like 1+2/ 2+1?

Yup, the 3 coffee shops right across the road from the campus side entrance They might have their official names but that's what we students called them

Yes i finished a year and a half of A-Levels in Taylor's before i came to Sunway.

I'm a Psych major for now ^^

I'm really excited about joining ADT Program.
Hope to start real soon.


I still feel like i don't know a lot of things though. Ahh the unsatisfyable curiosity. x)

@bazil

What would you like to know? I'll do my best to satisfy your curiosity, at least for now ^^

How does the program really work?
You study here for 2 years then continue to US for another 2 years?
Or are there alternatives?

I know we can get true credit transfer if we go to Western Michigan University, but can we get true credit transfer for other universities too?

How long exactly is 1 long semester and 1 short semester?

Yes 2 yrs local, followed by 2 yrs in US/Canada. You can do more (or less) than 2 yrs here, but either way you'll still have to complete at least 2 full years in US. Take less courses here means have to take more over there, which is much more expensive per credit hour. So usually we take as many courses as we can over here to save money

True credit transfer essentially means if you completed 60 credit hours here, guaranteed all 60 will be transferable to WMU. Usually, unis in Michigan state will accept our credit transfers because we're accredited by WMU, and follow the Michigan state education system, sort of. If you're more ambitious and aiming for more selective unis like Michigan Ann Arbor or even the Ivy Leagues though, they might not accept all 60 of them. It differs from uni to uni, and if nobody from Sunway ADTP has transferred to that particular uni before, there is no way to know how much of our credit transfers they'll accept until you apply.

Long sem is 14 weeks, short sem 7 weeks. Basically if you start in Jan, you'll finish your finals sometime by the end of April, sem break, come back in June for short sem, another short break, and finally a long sem from around Aug until Dec.

Might seem a lot to take in at once, since the system is diff from what we're used to. But it's definitely worth it me thinks

I see. Can we only transfer to the list of universities they provide, or can we try to get into other universities as well? I don't think that should pose much of a problem right?
Thanks for all the helpful information by the way. It's really great to have someone in the place I'm heading to give me all the information I need. =D

@bazil

You can definitely apply to other unis as well. That's exactly what i'm doing right now ^^

I get what you mean. It was a little overwhelming as well for me when i first joined, so much information so little time. Glad i could help

@cain

Oh one more question, do you live within the campus or do you commute daily from home? And what time do classes start usually? And what time does it end?

I know that's three questions, but what the heck. =D

@bazil

I commute daily since it's only about 20 mins drive from my home to campus. I have plenty of friends who're staying in college condos, apartments as well as renting rooms off-campus.

Earliest classes are at 9am, the latest ones end around 4.30pm to 5pm. Though with the flexibility of our program, you can always take the afternoon classes, or cram everything into 2 days so you'd only have to come to school 2 days per week (did that my last semester, though i'm not particularly recommending it ). 2 days per week! Imagine that! My friends from other programs were green with envy, muahahahaha. Anyway, normal schedule would be 4 days of classes per week with Fri and the weekends off. No classes on Fri unless you're taking biology or computer science.

LOL!
Hahaha that seems like a fun thing to do. =D
I'm loving the sound of that though. The flexibility I mean.

I'd take about 50 minutes to travel from where I live to the Sunway area. I've never really been to the campus actually. So I'm quite curious about how it looks like.
Oh and by the way, if I were to major in engineering, where would the classes take place? Do they have good lab equipment for engineering?

@bazil

Come have a look at it before you decide lor~

I'm not sure about the facilities for engineering, but as far as i know, the 1st 2 years in Sunway you'd be doing calculus, physics and a couple engineering courses, in addition to the general requirements like history, business and communications stuff. Depending on the semester's class enrollment (class size), your classes would be either in a classroom or in a lecture theater. The more advanced core of engineering classes you will only take after you transfer to US.

This post has been edited by cain: Jan 2 2010, 10:55 PM

I see..
That gives me some food for thought though.

What are the compulsory classes that I have to attend, if any?

@bazil

See, what sets ADTP apart from the British education system is its focus on a more all-rounded education. Employers want to hire people who are not only good in their field, but able to think critically using logic and general knowledge as well. The general requirements are divided into different sections, and you can pick the ones you're interested in out of each section. For instance in one section there might be Public Speaking, General Psychology or Sociology and you only have to do one of them.

Btw, they're not strictly "required" per se. Like my friends who are not planning to do Intro to Theater in Sunway can almost certainly choose to do it overseas. Or choose to do some other electives which are not offered here in Sunway but in US unis after they transfer.

I see. How many sections are there? I can't really find anything about this on the webpage.

@bazil

Around 6 or 7 i think... I dunno whether they put it up on the website, but there's actually a separate course outline for engineering majors. That will show you exactly what courses you'll need to take, a guideline for what to take and when to take, and a list of the general education requirements as well.

Okay. Thanks! =D
I think its time for me to return to Search Mode again. Really appreciated your help cain.
If I decide to go to Sunway University College, I'll be sure to let you know.
Thanks again!

Cheers

@bazil

You're welcome. And best of luck with your selecting of unis to attend!

anyone knows the fees for civil engineering in sunway university college?

can someone answer this? puhlizz

BACHELOR OF BUSINESS (TWINNING PROGRAMMES/ 3+0)


Can i have the fee structure?

40k i think..

im wondering whether can go for ptptn loan ornot

oh, ur gonna study there too?

How much is it per term then?

if there is loan then im studying!

the rates are based on this quote it think

I'd like to know if I were to take up Diploma in performing arts, are there any universities in the UK where I could transfer for degree course?

My reply was for ADTP, not for the twinning program

When is the last date to enroll for A-levels?

If i already have an Oxford Brookes University degree done in SYUC, do i get any exemptions if i wan to do ICAEW? If yes, what are the exemptions and how many more papers do i have to sit?

For 3 subjects, the amount will be RM22K++

Mr SunwayU, any idea for this?

1) It takes 3 years to complete a degree.

2) Whether ACCA or degree, it depends on what your career goals. Do drop by the Information Centre for one-on-one counselling.

3) Yes, we do answer hostel-related questions. We do have both washing machines and a dryer in the Apartment general area. About the rate for Dobi's you will need to check with the different Dobi's in the area.

I think @cain has answered most of your questions.

1) The fees for roughly 2 years at our campus would come up to about RM 28,800 for 60 credit hours. We will have to look at the subjects you take as we count per credit hour.

2) It is not too late to apply but do apply within this week for the January intake.

3) Yes, you can apply with your trial results.

4) For B.Sc (Bachelor of Science) in Engineering and a BEng (Bachelor in Engineering), the difference lies in the faculty. But if you compare course contents, they come up to be about the same. It is a naming convention based on the different systems a university holds.

Hope this helps.

The A-levels programme is about 1 1/2 year but we do have a 1 year option available.

The tuition fees for The Foundation in Arts is RM15++ for a 1 year programme with 3 semesters.

1) Tuition courses are up to the student. We do not take any negative action if you're asking about that.

2) I don't understand. Will your tuition affect your job opportunity? Of course not.

3) We do have job placement programmes. So yes, we do have job centres to help you with your applications to the Big 4. But the decision to hire rests on the Big 4 not on us

Very sorry for the late reply, but yes PTPTN loans ARE AVAILABLE for this course.

Thank you cain for helping with the enquiries. Ever thought of becoming a Sunway University College ambassador

Our BSc(Hons) Psychology programme is a full 3 year course at our campus.

If you prefer a twinning programme, we do have an option for Psychology via our American Degree Transfer Programme.

We only offer civil engineering via the American Degree Transfer Programme.

For 60 credit hours, the tuition fees are RM28,800

ahhh! consider me enrolled at sunway U then!

btw you can actually compile all the quotes and reply in one post.. click "quote" on all the posts and press "more options" button on the bottom and the quotes will be all there and just reply each of them, so u dont have to manually quote one by one and post them seperately..

I prefer doing it manually due to flood control. Also, it helps for other n00bs like me when replying

Thanks for the concern. Do drop by this week for enrollment

Can I have your email? We will send you the table

The university in UK will accept transfers based on their own requirements. Therefore, depending on the university, they may or may not accept the diploma programme.

But we do have arrangements with Deakin University and University of Tasmania in Australia and also University of Lethbridge in Canada for degree courses.

Are you referring to the Oxford Brookes University degree done under ACCA? If yes, you DO get exemptions for the Knowledge modules (6 papers)

Dear SunU,

If I do A-level already... but now I wanna enter into ADTP... how many exemptions do I get?

This post has been edited by phyllocs: Jan 4 2010, 11:49 AM

PM'd you.

IF I'd want to take a pre-u course like A levels or SAM but I didn't get 5 credits as required by the college and got like 4 credits only for example, will there be any way that I could still enter?

How about the requirement for entry for diploma course?

I only have one semester left in SUC, a bit too late for ambassadorship me thinks Just helping out based on the little experience that i have

---

Added on January 4, 2010, 2:11 pmI also came into ADTP after i finished my A-Levels (albeit with unimpressive results ). Basically, exemptions matter when you're transferring to US. So it really depends on how much exemptions the US unis are going to offer you, it differs from uni to uni, but you can generally expect 6~8 credit exemptions if you scored an A~D in A-Levels. Like i said, it differs from uni to uni, so don't be surprised if some competitive unis only accept A~C, or some less competitive ones which accepts as low as an E.

Check out the respective US institutions that you're interested in for specifics.

My own 2 cents, ADTP is so much easier than A-Levels! XD

This post has been edited by cain: Jan 4 2010, 02:11 PM

3 credits I suppose.

getting ready all my documents before i head to sunway tmrw..

any advice on what documents should i bring?

Unfortunately no, but you can still enter our diploma programmes. Then you can continue to a degree from there.
