So I heard there was a parking problem at the lakeside campus.

Added on February 22, 2010, 12:25 amHopefully, they'll get the thing resolved before everyone moves over in April. Speaking of April, I heard the move is supposed to be after a break, but I recall the 2010 Master Academic Calendar mentioning something about a break starting the 3rd week of April. Seeing as the UniSA degree students get a 2-week break, doesn't that mean they'll move in May? <___<

Yeah there's a major parking problem in lakeside now ^^"People actually have to drive all the way and park in PJ and take the shuttle bus to lakeside.The parking problem won't be solved anytime soon >.< After much complaining only they let people with green stickers park at lakeside together with red stickers making competition for parking even worst ^^" The lecturers and staff already took all the parkings under the academic block leaving only those parkings next to Block E for students use...The management told us by the time the commercial block is finished in July there will be approximately 600 more parking spaces so we don't have to worry..... but by then all the other programs would have moved here and add more than thousand students more in lakeside >.<

Which UniSA students are you talking about business or communication? ^^ If I'm not mistaken the new semester for the Business UniSA courses will be starting in lakeside this Tuesday not so sure about when communication will be moving there ^^" but hey it's pretty messed up now so we can only safely say by May most people would be in the lakeside campus probably during that break you mentioned they will do the move I don't see a better timing along those times. ^^

anyone doing or planning to take architecture at Taylor's? Would like to get a comment on that course...

Any comment on Pre-U study? like A level....

What questions do you have in mind? ^^

Actually, I'm am quite worried about my stpm result, due to my own fault, i didn do my best, so will it prevent me from entering my applied Uni, i will sit for A-level and try to score again...

1. How frequent is the A-level real test per year?
2. Can I take w/o finishing all my syllabus?
3. Entry requirement?

oh what degree are you planning on doing?It might be a better idea to sit for a shorter pre-u like SAM or ICPU if you can't make it with your STPM results depending on what course you are planning to do and where you want to do it since CAL is an 18 months program ^^"

1. How frequent is the A-level real test per year?
The major AS and A2 exams are held twice a year around May/June and October/November

2. Can I take w/o finishing all my syllabus?
um I don't quite understand this question ^^" If you mean you enroll then take AS half way through the course then go straight for A2,I'm not so sure if you can do that.You would have to ask Taylor's if they would allow you to do so.

3. Entry requirement?
Entry Requirements for Cambridge A-Levels and any other pre-u courses in Taylor's are 5 Credits in SPM including English and Math/Science subjects if your planning on taking Math/Science Subjects in A-Levels.

parkinggggggggggggggggggggggggggg omggggggggggggggggg
btw, have the a-level fees naik this year?

not sure since I did not do CAL but should be since the fees usually have a slight increase by year though I don't think got that much difference from last year.The fees this year in Subang Jaya Campus is RM24,065 (RM8,755+RM7,655+RM7,655) if you do 3 subjects and RM30,095((RM10,765+RM9,665+RM9,655) if you do 4 subjects.Tuition Fees 4 Subjects RM24,120 while 3 Subjects RM18,090 with both having Misc Fees of RM5,975 amounting to the total fees I showed.Fees in Sri Hartamas Campus would be slightly higher.

In brackets are fees for each semester.

Rationally, I don't think so. It depends on your group of friends. Yes, maybe they are rich, but they are not arrogant. They are pretty cool and really help me alot when I first entered taylor's. For your information, I am from JB. I had the same perception as you but time proves me wrong!

Added on February 23, 2010, 1:51 pmNo worries. The parking problem will be solved! It's been confirmed that there will be more car park space coming up for the coming intake. Probably, you can go to Taylor's Facebook Fan page for more information

can anybody pls tell me what do i have to do and prepare for the March Intake of SAM?

Agree with you I meet a lot of cool and great people in Taylor's XD

The parking problems won't really be resolved yet.The problem has existed since classes started in lakeside in January.Taylor's has assured students that when the commercial block is completed in July there will be approximately 600 more parking spaces.Now that much space won't help solve the problem ^^" I just came back from the orientation for February intake degree students today.I was helping with registering the new students and today Taylor's have added approximately 700+ people to their student body ^^" Now considering not everybody drives a car it should still be ok come July if we see from the number of students currently but starting from next month onwards the School of Computing,Design School and others who have not moved to lakeside yet will in phases start moving to lakeside and will completely be moved to lakeside in June.That will be adding a few hundred more people to the lakeside student body not to mention by July there would be another intake for most of the degree programs and foundations in march and july ^^" Therefore the parking problem won't be going away anytime soon.The problem might be around for a long time but lets hope for those who are spending a few more years in Taylor's the problem would be resolved once phase 2 of the lakeside campus is done in 2012 ^^"

Sorry, was referring to the School of Communication. I just had orientation (which was disappointing, to say the least) for the UniSA CMM degree today. Apparently we're moving over in...July. That's quite a distance away from the initial plan - April. Hopefully the parking problem will be resolved by then, though honestly, I doubt it - I believe someone mentioned today that the student population is like, several thousand (with five digits) if I recall correctly.

This does not bode well. Making students park in LCS and then taking a bus to the lakeside campus is rather sad, honestly.

Also, the student handbook they distributed today contains...directions on how to wash your hands. WTF?

Hi there, Just wanna ask, I'm planning to take International Business and Marketing, but before that, I'm going for the Foundation first. I heard that dual degree for the course is University of West Ebgland, Bristol. Well, if I don't wanna study in UK, can I go to Australiaand study?

Yes you may credit transfer to Australia using Taylor's-UWE IB and Marketing dual degree as long as you meet the other universities entry requirements but by doing so you won't get a Taylor's or UWE Degree.If you do IB and Marketing in Taylor's then go transfer to UWE you would still get a UWE degree + a degree from Taylor's but not if you to other universities.If you are planning to go to Australia I would recommend you to go for Taylor's UniSA twinning for Marketing.It would be easier to transfer to Australia with that course.You can go transfer to UniSA anytime as long as you have passed 4 subjects while you were in Taylor's.By getting a GPA of 4 out of 7 you can transfer to any other business course when you transfer to UniSA in Adelaide while if you are just transferring over to Adelaide and not changing you course there is no minimum GPA needed just that you have passed four courses ^^ Of course if your GPA is very low maybe below 3.5 the program director will send you a letter to ask are you sure about transferring over to Adelaide since your not scoring in Malaysia so you might want to think about transferring to Adelaide but if you want to do it they won't stop you just they will ask if your really sure.Of course that is assuming if you get low marks,you might be a top scorer who always score full marks for all I know ^^. the Taylor's UniSA program also have articulation agreements to University of Western Australia (UWA) ,Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), University of Technology, Sydney(UTS) and University of Queensland (UQ) for 1+2 arrangements.Transferring over to Australia is easier through the UniSA program than the Taylor's-UWE dual degree program.

Taylor has a course called AUP/ADTP right?? Can someone confirm for me, are they offering Organic Chemistry II next semester?? Because I am going back to Malaysia and take this subject, unfortunately Inti are not offering.

Best for you to e-mail them to get further confirmation and procedures ^^

Hello! Im interested in knowing more information about the 2+3 medical programme at Taylor's. Im a Malaysian, now living in Denmark with Danish Pre-Univ. Soon moving back to Malaysia and wondering if they accept my danish pre-univ.
what is the fees for the 2 years medical programme in Malaysia?

Appreciate all the help!

Hum if you did your pre-u in Denmark I can't really help much there since I know practically nothing about it ^^" The best idea would be for you to e-mail Taylor's at
admissions@taylors.edu.my
and ask them whether they accept your pre-u and also the fees. ^^ I never saw them put anything besides the brochure on the course in Student Central so I never got to know the fees ^^" so better email them so they can send it to you and ask them further questions ^^
Here is the brochure for the Medical Transfer Program.  Medical_Degree_Transfer_Programme__MDTP_.zip ( 198.48k ) Number of downloads: 22

hey ts, did u left out the course (diploma in Construction Management) in the division of architecture, builiding and design? just wondering if its included and will be swifting to the lakeside campus.
