making a degree by yourself would be illegal.
What your asking is a case-by-case basis thing which usually only the University can answer you. It would be less likely in the more competitive Universities. You're better off taking A-Levels or the IB Diploma or if your on a tight budget go for STPM, it's recognized as an equivalent to A-Levels.

lol go to the website of the Universities that you are interested in. Most of them clearly state their requirements there.

Can anybody who is currently studying in UK universities tell me how must is the estimated cost for Bachelor's Degree? I've checked out Birmingham in particular and the estimated cost is about 10k-15k pounds. I'm not too sure if this applies for the whole course, per year or only per semester.

Any help would be greatly appreciated  notworthy.gif

I graduated from bham so hopefully I could help you out on this.

£10k-15k is annual fee, you can pay by installments but for Bham they will give you about £500 discount if you make full payment. Engineering is about £10-11k

Living expenses: (monthly)

student rental - £250 to £300 (all bills inclusive)
Food - £200-250 (£150-£200 if you cook everyday and eat really basic meals) I eat out quite often..
Phone - ~£20-30 contract based

So roughly about £6k on top of your tuition fee per year.

If you work part time here, minimum wage £5.8 an hour.

Overall, a nice place to stay and many malaysians there to hang out too.

Checkout their website: www.masocbham.co.uk

There's also forum for Malaysian in UK: www.frommy.org

sometimes I wonder how strict they follow the entry requirement or they would accept based on the number of applicants and the availability offered. hmm.gif

if the website stated 3.5 CGPA, then a person with 3.1 CGPA would it be strictly failed no matter what?

rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif I like your detail explanations!

I'm wondering why master courses for business area (i.e. Masters in Management, MBA, and etc) is costing much more expensive than engineering course. I've went through some of the business school in London, and the price range is within £18.5k - £24/25k! Oh gosh! I thought engineering courses are much more specialized and why would this happen? Have any thoughts about this?

I'm looking into doing master in UK, specifically London this coming September. I'm getting prepared for it and feel free to advice smile.gif Thanks a bunch! notworthy.gif

Mistercrono,

So, you said are doing bachelor top-up, right? Does it mean you have a previous diploma or something? I heard a top-up is better than a pre-masters, should you decide to do masters later on. I donot know if that's correct or not.

The  pre-masters and top-up is something that is not yet available in Malaysian local Unis. 

Will wait for your friend's feedback for the Masters in Accounting. smile.gif

Mistercrono,

Did you manage to find out from your friend on his/her Masters of Accounting?

Anyway, I found out that there is a local partner here who is recruiting for Uni of Gloucestershire at this link

www.scmpc.org click here -> SCMPC

Anyone interested to find out too?

Yeah, depending on your target. Anything under the top 10 is pretty darn easy, and it isn't that hard to get one from within the top 10 either. If everything is in place it isn't too difficult, especially for overseas students.

LOL I applied to Cass. They are known for certain courses and departments, especially for graduate courses, and claim to have strong links with industry and to have high rankings (in UK business school rankings). People claim they are fairly well known in Europe.

Fees, I have no idea, but they are relatively low, I think.

If you are considering Cass, may I know where else you have applied, and for what course?

Unfortunately I won't be attending Cass.

i wouldn't say much cheaper.......it depends on where in manchester you are talking about......but generally, it should be about 20% cheaper, mostly contributed by cheaper accommodation.....other expenses like food, transport, phone, intenet etc should be about the same.....

So, do you see much higher recognition for the universities or business schools in London compare to elsewhere in UK? hmm.gif I'm wondering.

Cass isn't ranked within the Top 10 right? And, I'm only applying for Cass Business School because my core aim is to settled down in London. I wanted to go for Warwick Business School so much but then it is away from London and that's why I have canceled my mind and focus back in London.

I'm aiming to do Master in Management. Wanted to MBA but all of the universities also required working experience which I don't have any, yet.


Added on February 22, 2011, 9:48 pmHello people, setting aside the cost-of-living matters, does London really have better education quality or it's just the same anywhere and everywhere?
