im taking diploma , cos my parents and cousin who also took architecture didnt recomend me to take foundation cos u end up learning alot of things not related to architecture. Well in terms of having sleepless nights due to finishing assignments, that only happened to me once.. because of me doing it last minute, so my suggestion is to complete ur assignments right after u get them, and u can slack off for the rest of the week , well that is for diploma students, degree level will probably be harder. What else would u like to know?

I see, I was thinking about taking Foundation in Arts or the diploma course. I'm kind of a procrastinator so I aleady have sleepless nights haha

Since I'm taking SPM this year, are the core science subjects important and have anything related to architecture??

I heard that they will reteach you those physics stuff in university/college, is it true??

Are you planning to study your degree at UCSI as well or abroad? I think it'll be cool to study architecture abroad

Are the lecturers good? And the courses are taught in English, right?

Sorry if it seems like there's a lot of questions, cuz I'm really undecided whether to take Law or Architecture..

no, actually im from accounting stream lol.. but i hated accounting ,so ended up taking architecture .they dont teach science related subjects like physics in diploma, i believe they teach that in foundation where u have to take some subjects that aren't even related to architecture.

as for study abroad im not sure, but most likely continue degree here , and lastly yes the lecturers here are very good, when i first came here i wasnt the best at drawing (i have no arts background) but now im getting better because they teach u the proper techniques and mostly importantly just keep practicing. the lesson are taught in english

Hi everyone,i have registered for UCSI's architecture course today..
and i get to know that i have to pay the initial payment before 13 March 2015(about RM12k)
The initial payment includes the tuition fees, miscellaneous fees,refundable deposit...

i would like to apply for the scholarship to cover some of the tuition fees..and the question i wanna ask is if i managed to get a scholarship, how will be the initial tuition fee in my account...?will it be carried forward to next year/sem until my scholarship is revoked ..(Can it be used next time?)

is the initial tuition fee(included in initial payment) same as the tuition fees for the 1st semester?

i suggest you should chat with the counselor at UCSI directly.
http://www.ucsiuniversity.edu.my/foas/

or fill up their online enquiry form

Last time i got the scholarship also, so they straight deduct from my initial payment then i just paid the balance. And yes the initial tuition fees covers your first semester as well. The rest of the fees will be paid on semester basis.

Well, MUET exam only 3 time in a year where IELTS almost every month, no easy to get band 4 in MUET and IELTS also good because you can use this once you submit your CV once you work later or further your studies overseas..

Aye, it is relevant to be included in future CVs to a certain extent. And no, MUET Band 4 is really easy to get. I do not want to brag but just to paint the idea in your head that I did not study at all for my MUET and still got a Band 5 (about ten odd marks away from Band 6). MUET is a lot cheaper to take, too. About 100 bucks?

hey im gonna go do pharm at ucsi, are you former student there? i really need your feedback. thank you

Good evening guys, I am an ex student here.

Just wanna inquire, to enter the gym, do you need student tag? Or can just enter liddat? Opening hours?

Need student Card. ya need to write down ur name And details, and give the person-in-charge ur student card.

Just out of curiosity as I have not been to UCSI's gym since mid 2014, while I have no intention on returning and trespassing as an alumni rather than a current student, I'm wondering if the facilities have improved?

I can't really compare much actually cuz i don't go that often.

I applied for the ucsi scholarship and it offered me 18k full scholarship which could cover my foundation. I rejected once despite the bad comments from others and the advisor kept calling me just to ask the reason why I reject them blah blah. I don't know why the advisor was desperate for me to take it lol

I did A-levels there, foundation courses in UCSI are definitely better than most private universities, anything better than UCSI's foundation programmes would probably be foundation courses from unis that are specialised in areas that UCSI isn't, or you know, A-levels. Best of luck in your future endeavors.

Did UCSI accept a levels which from TARC?..
Is it ok to study mechanical engineering in UCSI? Heard bout it's reputation,not bad.

What kind of question is this? Of course A-levels are accepted. Almost all private unis in Malaysia accept A-levels. Only thing to worry is that do you meet the requirement of grades?

Hello. Is the Interior Architecture course here good? I notice its under the Built Environment faculty not Design(like in Taylors) not sure if that's a good thing though. Any comments on the lecturers/class atmosphere for Interior Arch is much appreciated. I'm really interested to come study here

Hey guys, ive just finished my foundation in science from other university and im looking forward to major in petroleum engineering course, do i stand a chance of entering petroleum engineering course in UCSI with a final cgpa of 2.98?
And also i would like to know more information about the course in UCSI.

Hello there. Currently undertaking STPM. Just found out that UCSI has a new course "Aquatic Science". Since it's new, I guess it would not be accredited yet? Anyway, if anyone has more information about this course, I'm all ears. Thanks
