IM NOT SURE.. maybe july or sept..

have you arrange your accommodation ?

Can you PM me your phone number? if you join on JAN 2013...

I can check with you whether this UNI good or not.

My advice.
Dont go SEGI's degree as they UK's award sucks.. Either is sunderland,greewich or abartay dundee.. they rank is the lowest! but of course the fees is cheap. cheaper then many private UNI like sunway,inti etc.. Because previously i go SEGI for diploma only. Now degree i am in INTI..

Sunway is better.. lancaster top 5 in UK university..

Apu i dont know..

You should join APU, I will tell you why:

1) You will learn how to cope with unusable wifi, even your Internet Explorer is faster than their wifi.

2) Learn how to see the goodness in bad food. It's a tough science, especially in APU. Learning how to find the tastiness in their burnt fried race makes you better person.

3) Learn how to deal with arrogant people. Some foreigners are so rich that they can swoop to the front-line and yell at the spaghetti chef that they queue first. It's also great to improve tolerance.

why the course modules are so much different???? i had check other uni all modules are quiet similar to APU just SEGI modules look so different ! plz advise

I will try to be honest la... The campus status updates are as follow:
When I visited UCTI during december '11, they claim new campus will have its phase 1 completed and opened on undefined month '13
Few weeks ago a few admin/lecturers came into our engineering class, informed us new campus phase 1 will be done and opened in the mid of '14, assumed June or so.
We cant seem to find where the new campus is, nor did they release any photos apart from "official rumors" and artists impressions you found online.

Teacher quality is OK la, but some are terrible, while some are great to an extent that they welcome you to consult them if you cant understand some parts.

Facilities? Their server burnt down few weeks ago, the labs full of burned plastics smells and they struggle to get server spin up without quick backup. You heard it, WITHOUT QUICK BACKUP. Only the core webspace is up, OK enough for us to download study materials and nothing more. As no.1 IT university they failed at backups, cloud hosting, and if you pry open their underlying web codes, they suck at programming.

People arr... Local students are hardworking and great. Foreigners in my engineering class are quite smart and awesome. But in business classes I really pissed off when having comm skillz assignment with them.

IT students in my foundation batch kinda spoonfeed type, so beware, if you sibeh pro in IT they rather ask you some stupid lazy questions rather than googling around, watch out.

Tips:
- Pissed off to be group leader is fine, you get chance to learn more!
- there are some workaround with APU Wifi system, http://blog.anonoz.com/645/play-around-the...i-of-apu-apiit/
- Think of APU as a sandbox for wrongdoings and tolerance improvisation dojo, yes you will meet plenty of retards, but in working field you will bump into retards as well, sharpen your skills to deal with them. If can, choose group assignments teammates WISELY. Dont choose ur friends if they suck and cannot handle the jobs, join the best person possible. I knew a few really capable people in my batch and tried to work with them. It brings less pain even if your work sucked.

Why not APIIT?

APU = APIIT = UCTI

I may take diploma in IT here, how's the environment?
What's the negative stuffs here and will they affect my studies?

can someone recommend some nice uni for IT course?

1. Govt unis - UM, UKM, USM, UUM, etc

2. Monash/Nottingham

The others... Idw comment as I may offend other people who're students of those institutions.

But as a rule of thumb, The class profile determines how much you learn. Ie if your peers are slow, your learning will be crap as the prof has to dumb down the lesson to accommodate these people

Some of these institutions, half of the intake come in with grades like CDD, and some come in with dubious foundation certs from private unis whose quality can't be ascertained. You be the judge of what I'm trying to say

At the end of the day, computer science programs are like any other science/engineering program. Your peers will affect how much you learn

At least for govt unis, minimum entry standard is probably around BBB
