@tyj91
dentistry is health care, where at branch campus near KL, i not sure much things about there. but anyway, the orientation week is conducted at main campus, which is Bangi

@hitman91
either you can choose to stay at higher rate hostel (which is KKM/Zaaba) if they still have vacant
and most of the time, you can stay at housing area around main campus (fasa 3 / near hentian kajang there) and mostly is find yourself.

welcome to ukm

Sorry I can't tell you whether you can apply before getting in or not. Since I applied it during my 2nd year. All I did was apply through online, then it will be approved and we will need to download the form via online and fill it afterwards and finally post it to PTPTN office.

Since it is stated 30 June, I think you should register online before the date. Then the approval might be after you get into UKM. By that time, you will find out that you have been aproved via online and you have to download the forms and seek for Student Service Department's help to fill the form. They will also help you to post it.

If you want to confirm and make no mistake, call PTPTN and ask.

2. It is different from hostel to hostel, we have >10 hostels in UKM. What hostel do you get?

3. For first year, rules do not allow car. However, you can bring it illegally, but you won't be able to apply for UKM car sticker which allows you to go out at night. Without sticker, you can't get in UKM at night, but if at daylight no problem. Easy to say, you can bring but you cannot go out at night without sticker. But if you can find the sticker, then no problem

Added on June 18, 2010, 10:38 pmThere are actually 2 hostels in UKM are semi-government. It is a bit more expensive but there are lots of rooms which you not need to worry about no place to live. Anyway, you can stay active to remain in your hostel. Like me, I have lived 2 years in the same hostel.

If you want to stay outside also can, many students did that. But all these will be dealt by your own. No service provided by school.

Added on June 18, 2010, 10:49 pmThere are lots of activites you can join. It can be categorized into 2, Pusat and Kolej.

You can join Pusat activities (UKM activities):
Etc : Pesta Angpow, Pesta Tanglung, Pesta Convo and a lots more.

Kolej activities: You also can find Pesta Angpow, Pesta Tanglung( Peringkat hostel) and many activities. There are always activities organized and you not need to worry there is no activity, I believe you will avoid from too much activities later

Normally, if you want to stay hostel, doing Kolej activities are suffice. If you want to learn more, and get to know more people, join Pusat activities then.

You will need to apply through UKM online system for continue to live in hostel in second year. You need to fill up the form with the activities that you ever joined and the marks will be calculated based on it.

Let's say you are so unlucky to get kicked, there are still 2 semi-government hostels for you to live in. I never hear people failed to apply on them, but the fees is higher than the normal one. Not that big different though, extra few hundreds per sem.

ok la. intro lo. 08/09 batch statistics student, coming session will be my last year.
anything you all may PM me or just post here (wahaha, never tried being spammed by PM

in before, college = hostel

@hitman91
mostly, if you want to secure your college place, either you join your college activities or campus activities (that give you merit marks)
else, you might end up being stay at higher room rate college (where the activities are optional, since the college quite big)
