not sure about the course but overall, the campus facilities are good enough and currently they are doing improvement for car parking...

for cost of living, if you are talking about food, is not really that expensive if want compare to oldtown etc...you can spend below RM 10 including drinks...the food taste acceptable (always eat at block B)

any information regarding ucsi, u can visit here: https://www.facebook.com/ucsi.university

I wouldn't rate UCSI University facility as "good" enough. They really need to work harder on this aspect. Library need to add more books. I mean really good and educational books. Do some stock-update. Old outdated books should be donated or recycled.

Parking recently only Student Council gather petition. That also don't know if they're serious enough to do improvement over the parking.

good enough as in they provide bus shuttle for the students like us, hahaha

you are right about the library, instead built the lift, they can buy or restock more academic books...and i don't understand why most of the so called good academic reference located at the lowest ground floor and 'locked'...

and the stuff attitude is terrible too

oops...i think i recommend wrong uni to people already

Staff attitude?
Last week I was there and the registrar staff raise her voice to a student.

reminds me few years back ago again!

I am shock when the library systems shows that i haven't returned the book but i already returned few weeks ago.

I approached the staff and he keep saying, ''Most students thought they have return the book but actually not''. I request can he look again? He said don't have (less than 10 minutes, he told me he couldn't found it), i am piss off, i go up again and look for the book that i returned and guess what?!?! He or other staff actually forgot to key in the system for the return and that's why i still in the list book pending.

omg! I am so piss off! what the hell!!!!!! I regret i did not report him actually to the management, such an..lazy bum...

oh god, plz don't go ucsi anymore..lol

is it that bad? lol. which college or uni is better and as affordable as UCSI then? haha

is UCSI really affordable? i thought it is expensive already

i thought Taylor or HELP basically the fees are the same?

for my program, i only found one of the best lecturer among all i studied since foundation..

facilities...is quite fancy lol, got the 'ogawa/osim chair some more

TARC. Now offering Degree program already.
Pending approval.

Last time when I entering UCSI also pending approval.

really? haha. any idea on Taylor's fees?

no way I'm going back to TARC. I don't wanna be a lab rat again. I went to TARC and regretted like hell. lol. I'm chinese and i speak mandarin but i dont wanna go to a college in which majority of the students converse in mandarin and suck badly in english. it is an important language for goodness' sake!
and by going to a predominantly mandarin speaking uni or college, it is hard for a student to improve his or her english because he or she is being held back and handicapped by the mandarin speaking environment.

ENGLISH is an international language so everyone has to at least have a decent command of english.
MANDARIN/CHINESE is important too. but it is an extra on top of english. so yeah..

and i dont wanna go to a college or uni whose programs are pending approval and stuff. although chances are slim, what if their courses end up not being approved? your cert might end up not being recognized by companies. what will you do? sue the college/uni?

no hard feelings. just my point of view

I am interested to go for a BA in English Language and Communications. Is UCSI a good choice? Is this degree recognized?

hi anyone taking dual qualification executive master of management on UCSI? i wish to know more information regarding this program fees etc...i tried called their office several time but no one revert to me so far

It's funny how you put English language as your utmost priority to reject TARC and choose UCSI without much study and regards to if these two educational institutions have any differences with the command of language used. As much as I am concerned with few years of studying experience in both institutions, it does not make difference if you're studying in TARC or UCSI. As long as there's chinese, they'll speak Mandarin. Not all, but most.

Don't talk about students lah, even lecturers/management in UCSI also cannot speak properly. You want example? Nah:



You want to improve your English? Start reading novel and join more NGOs.

So I guess taking a BA in English Language and Communications in UCSI is out of the question then? ._.

and you're wrong. haha. I'm not looking to improve my english (not that i dont wanna). it's the matter of working with them in doing assignments. as far as i know, well, based on my experience, chinese-ed students work differently compared to english-ed ones. you can say that i'm half english ed and half chinese ed. hence, it's easier to work with people who're of the similar wavelength and mindset. i dont mind people speaking mandarin, it's the way they do things.

unfortunately for me, i went thru 2 1/2 years of that and i realized that i didnt learn much. i wasnt pushed to my fullest potential. i hope you can see that language isnt my utmost priority, but mentality, culture, the level of intellect (not implying that i'm a bright student), etc. hopefully you can understand my pain hahahaha.

again, no hard feelings aight

anyone studying degree in finance and investment in ucsi? i heard this is a new course.. i'm currently studying diploma in finance and investment.. think of switching to ucsi after completing my diploma here. any opinions?

Oh so your purpose is for assignment?
Haha, good luck finding good people for assignment. I realized in my 2 years studying here; all good ones are fully booked. They're selling like hot cakes.
