Anyone knows how do I get to the university from Sunway Pyramid by public transport (bus or monorail/lrt)? How long will the journey take and will it be a pain? I hope theres not too many buses to switch or too long to walk to reach there.

just being curious, is anyone looking for a housemate @ around kajang, i need to find a place to stay around kajang/semenyih in feb

I've just got unconditional offer from Nottingham for Economics.... not very contented as I still do not have the money to go despite that 25% discount

You may take KTM and get off at Kajang KTM station I think

Why did you apply knowing that you won't have the money to continue?

Anyway, there's PTPTN loan,

and a wide range of scholarships:

Unless I get the 50% off scholarships, PTPTN would not be enough... entirely depending on scholarship.. on top of that, I still have to move to Semenyih.

You are asking why did people buy Toto despite for its probability to win the prize? Same principle. I may not have the money but I definitely have the capability for it. If the end product (Prize) of that probability game would be so great and cover up the effort I put into, why not? I even applied to UK and got some offers if you'd ask me

And the application is free, I don't see why not

Your Toto principle does not apply here since you already know you are not going to win.

Unless you're saying the effort you put into it is trying to gain financial assistance/scholarship then that's understandable.

PTPTN plus other scholarships would be enough I guess?

Why not try the Shell Scholarship now?

We'll see about the winning part, I have until September O.O
PTPTN plus Tinggi Foundation, maybe. PTPTN plus the original 25% off, not really. Full scholarship,


OMG... I wanna slap somebody already. They forgot to email me the offer letter, I'm basically stuck in the process.

You better hurry. Deadline This SUNDAYYYY

I know right. Wait, I thought the deadline's on saturday?..

can I submit it without the letter btw?

LOL. Pain. Ouch.

But it's true.

You're better off banging for other scholarships like the Star Edu Fund

I'm not too sure bout the offer letter thingy. But I don't think you need since they didn't specify anything.

Yeah, Star Edu Fund is sponsoring a scholarship in Economics for Nottingham!

=S


Yeah I know about the Star Edu Fund bits... but it's not open yet, is it?

OPEN ALREADY LOL!!!


My bf is applying for shell and apparently the don't need offer letter.

Owhh Good to hear!

just want to ask. anyone studying the Bsc Economics offered by NSE? the degree looks quite prestige with such a high admission requirement.

anyone studying that course mind sharing your opinions? probably im going to take that course too.

Btw, the website didt provide the modules/units that will be offered to the students. anyone know about this? just wanna compare with other economics courses.

If you're going for prestige, the FAM would carry the most prestige. For example, in the China campus, students of FAM are told that they're the best among all the business school students. (most likely due to the high entry requirements).

What is FAM? I googled it and it show me Football Association Malaysia? LOL.

haha chill bro. Im not really into the "prestige" word. Just wanna make sure that I'll get a good degree.

Lol.

FAM is short for the "Finance, Accounting, and Management" programme.

For specific details on the Econs programme, sorry, so far there's no one here doing it.

You've probably gotta email the university or make a trip there to enquire.

oh. too bad then. maybe I'll just pay a visit to the university
