Hi,
I'm interested in taking a degree in applied finance(UniSA) july intake.
I did my foundation in commerce in SEGI Subang Jaya, would Taylors accept me?
Because a friend of mine (graduated foundation in commerce in HELP), who applied for UniSA was rejected.
Worst thing is Taylors called one day before orientation and said she was rejected.

Regards.

No scholarship is only for studies in Taylor's.

No, Taylor's has stopped offering twinning programmes for Engineering, you can credit transfer somewhere overseas but if you stay and finish the degree in Taylor's then you shall get a Degree from Taylor's University.
No most scholarships have it in their terms and conditions that the scholars can not hold any other scholarships therefore you can only have one scholarship at every one time.
If you did well in Foundation and you are eligible for the Tertiary Merit Scholarship then once you get it you will have to let go of your previous scholarship as you are allowed to change to another scholarship which is of a higher quantum but you can't hold two scholarships

No Taylor's does not have twinning programmes for Engineering any more. You can credit transfer after one or two years in Taylor's or stay on and do the TU Degree.


Please go and contact Taylor's ADP. Most probably it's not usable, it's like you do your degree halfway then you stop.

Entering a university with another institution's foundation is always handled on a case-by-case basis unless your doing stuff like MUFY.
In your case the only one that can answer you is Taylor's and if they think it is not up to par then they will not accept it and in the case of the UniSA programme, Taylor's also can not surely say so unless somebody else has done it before and they would have to refer the qualification to UniSA.

Hi,i just wanna ask whether if i already apply and paid for the term 1 fees for TBF march intake, can i change my course to sam??

Contact Taylor's and ask since SAM already started so I don't know.

Hi! There is no A-Levels intake in May, we do have one in June.

Called them already and they say will call me back but still haven't. . My course suppose to star on Wednesday but till today I don't even know what time is the orientation starts???

Well I can't help you there ^^" best is to keep kacau and calling them >_<

I'm finding for an apartment/flat for rent nearby to Taylor's lakeside.
Can any kind soul tell me some tips or recommend any unit? Thanks.
Budget would be around RM800-RM1300.

based on what Taylor stated :
School of Engineering
The curriculum of the Taylor’s engineering programme is developed based on the School of Engineering’s 13-
year experience of partnering with top engineering universities from the UK like the University of Sheffield and
the University of Birmingham. Now that we have our own programme, we’ve combined the best of both
theoretical and practical aspects into a 4-year programme structure. Our 4-year engineering degree is also
accredited and recognised by the Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA), the Engineering Accreditation Council
(EAC) and the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM).

• Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Chemical Engineering
• Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Mechanical Engineering
• Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering


I have checked with the official website of BEM and it doesn't shows Taylor's University in the list ? Is there something wrong or the recognition is already been removed ? can any Taylor's representative clarify on this serious matter ?

thanks.

It's simple actually, the Taylor's University own BEng Engineering programme can still be considered quite new therefore it still has yet to receive accreditation. It is recognized by the BEM but it still has not received accreditation from BEM as there are still certain stuff that it can not provide for accreditation evaluation as it's still quite new. The BEM website lists programmes that has already received accreditation. You need to understand the difference between recognition and accreditation.

Hey Hikari0307, may i know what is a credit transfer ? Is there any 3 years local + 1 year oversea Engineering programme in Taylor ?

Credit transfer is when transfer to another University with advanced standings. The university will look at your results and the syllabus of the subjects you have done, they will then evaluate how close it is to their programme and decide whether to give you exemptions from those subjects or not.
There's no 3+1.
You can have a look at the Articulation Agreements that Taylor's University have here

Taylor's School of Communications(foundation + degree 3+0)
Any of you guys taking the above?

just to be sure,
the BEng HONS is awarded by Taylor only ? even if i do 2+2, it is still awarded by TAYLOR only ? is there any twinning program offered by TAYLORS ?

I used to use inter-library loan to borrow a books from IPTA. But, for Taylor, why there's a lot of e-book? Or got physical book but not put inside the web catalog?

Example, Microsoft Certification book... MCTS or MCITP books ..

Thanks

aww that's cool it's a full university now! if I stayed in KL, I would've attended taylor's most likely

1) Depending which road you take and how you drive 20-40 minutes on an ok road. I drove from bangsar through the NPE and it took about 15 minutes, federal highway 30 minutes. Traffic jams well depends on the severity =D

Yes, it's a Taylor's programme so it's awarded by Taylor's. There's no twinning programmes for Engineering any more. You can only do credit transfer. If you credit transfer somewhere else after spending time in Taylor's you won't get a degree awarded by Taylor's as you have transferred somewhere else and is no longer their student, therefore you'll get your degree from whatever uni you transferred to.

You should go and ask one of the librarians, they would know better.

thanks for your reply, Hikari!
At least I have some idea, so from Sri Hartamas to NPE- 10 minutes + 15 minutes = less than 40 minutes
Hmmm planning to drop & pickup my kid in future.

Anyone here staying in the hostel share how is it at the lakeside??? I'm renting a room outside bcs it cheaper and it is horrible here, I rather pay 700-800 and stay at the lakeside if the environment is clean n good.
