For those who have/had been experiencing the life in local University in Malaysia, mind to share the experiences with us? Maybe about some significant incidents.... or lecturers, etc..

I would also like to know... the first year we get admitted into the U, must we stay in the hostel there? And if we're going to stay there... is there internet connection available in every room? Can we buy desktop computer or laptop and bring there?

Are you referring to private or public U? For private U, it's up to you whether you want to stay at hostel or not. For public U, I don't know  Internet connection, this varies from every U. Desktop or laptop it's up to you. Don't you think your topic is a little vague?


Btw, I'm referring to Public U...

But second year onwards we will have to live outside the campus I heard... Anyway I just hope to have internet connection most of the time... And my plan is to have a desktop...not a laptop... although laptop is more mobile... but I don't like it very much because it's fragile, expensive, and "user friendly" .. for me la... But I will have to face problem getting the wifi if I'm going for desktop but not laptop...

I heard some friends telling me there are some incidents like laptop, handphone, cameras being stolen frequently in local U... and that almost everyone will experience loses of their belongings because of stolen...wondering how would it be if i lose my things... sad.gif

I'm STPM leaver... first choice that I applied was Civil Engineering in USM... My CGPA is quite low..which is 3.42... actually being pulled down by my chemistry's grade .... If I obtain my first choice, undoubtedly I would be very satisfied and happy... But I don't know how does the selection work... So just can pray atm...

Another thing I want to ask is in U..can we choose to live 4 or 3 or 2 or 1 in one room? Or is this arranged by the U?

Wow...thanks... by the way...do we stay in the campus all the time? Do we have chances to go out to town? I think there are 2 different campuses in USM... engineering campus is in Seberang Perai...

Lets say in USM engineering campus... it's said that it's far from town... that means if in second year we can't live in hostel anymore.... will we face difficulties finding accomodations outside the campus?

What about the certs we get when we graduate? How wide is the recognition? Is it only recognised by government sector?
