I'm now a form5 student...i dun quite sure about which institution...
however i was thinking about to go taylors and transfer to Melbourne...but now i want to go London coz i got relative there...

which institution is recommended?or any transfer student programme available in Msia for architecture?

thx

before u start into any transfer programmes, u should know that msian authority in the architecture profession, lembaga akitek malaysia (LAM) does not recognize any transfer or twinning programmes.

taylor's does not "transfer" to melbourne, but rather, they have a partnership programmes that allow their students to finish their degree in melbourne. LAM however does not recognize this, meaning they'll not be automatically accredited once they've graduated and come back to practice. meaning they're are not certified to become architects UNLESS they seek recognition individually with LAM.



anyways, if u're looking for architecture in london, the best in the world would be the bartlett (UCL)and the AA. westminster, metropolitan and royal college of art are good too. bear in mind though, bartlett and AA is easy to get in, but have an extremely high failure rate.

oh..thanks azarimy...
I got another question here..how much will the tuition fee be for the barlett,AA,westminster, metropolitan and royal college of art...coz u know...go there study money is an important factor...

woohoo i got into Imperial
any advice?

is it better for me to bring printer here or buy it at UK?

u seems so excited ha ha yea im also wondering whether its better to buy there?

hehe need to prepare early maa so how bout ur visa?

Seriously......anyone can get into Imperial.

The advice is, prepare your finance, You probably need about RM800k or more for the entire duration.

If you get a scholarship, then don't worry lah.
Ballpark about 13k-14k pounds per year for tuition fees. 3k-5k for Miscellaneous fees. 600-800 pounds for living cost, high quote for London.

Engineering in the UK is more or less comparable. So choose according to your budget.

Everything is common, you get so many people doing engineering, you'll also get so many people doing economics. If something rare is what you want, go to LACs in the US.

hey let say uni give me conditional offer,e.g. get C for 4 remaining subjects,but if i get A,C,C,D then will they accept?

Here what you do. Decide which printer you buy and get it from UK. Before you leave for UK, get some extra catridge supplies from Malaysia first.

which better, canon?emm i think to bring my own printer lohh

You can bring your own printer if you have space to spare. Else, get it in UK as the price is almost the same.

Canon is fine as their ink catridge is cheap. I got myself a Canon i80 last time because it is portable and I could put it into my backpack (hand lugguage).

No one knows, you have to contact the admission tutor to see if your offer is still valid. It is evident that you have not met a quarter of the stipulated condition, so you'll probably forfeit that offer.

usually universities at UK intake in which month??feb n september??

September

if u're talking about A4, u may be able to get the small printers and bring it to the UK. but i use A3 (for architectural dwg), so even if it's cheaper to buy in msia, it's not even worth it to ship it to the UK. not even worth the cheap inks . like those that have mentioned before, it might be a good idea to survey the printer that u want to buy, get the inks from msia, and buy the printer in the UK.

only september??for all uni at UK?

To be honest, if you're only going to be printing occasionally, you don't need a printer, as your university library (or even your own department) will have really cheap printing and photocopying facilities. The print quality will be better than most bubble jets anyways.

So don't do what most people do and go with a whole bunch of junk. 1 girl I know even brought her own TV and telephone! O_o You can buy anything you need once you get here. Trust me, you'll discover that there are a lot of things cheaper here in the UK than in is in M'sia. That goes for things like pens, paper, clothes, mobiles, etc...

Ha Ha... how to define 'helpful'?
Do you know the rental for that type of accomodation?

Should be

TV??!!!

He's alright. But just be prepared that lecturers in UK aren't the same as in Malaysia.

Nope. Sorry..
