I know KYUEM is a really good college and that the fees live up to their standards (shudders), so without financial aid, I don't think I'll ever manage to study there. Other than UEM and Yayasan Khazanah, may I know what other organizations would send their scholars to pursue A-levels studies at KY?

JPA , KPM Bursary , MARA , BNM , SIME DARBY , UEM , YK , Maybank.

KYUEM student here, agree with the above list. YTN and MMC too. For bursary, it's a special case where 3 of then managed to request to be sent to KYUEM for our last batch. Normally you won't be allowed to, but you can still try.

Thank you! How's life there? I'd love to get some insight...

Since I have been at KYUEM for 3 days, I thought I'll just take a few minutes to clarify this post based on my experience.

1. KYUEM is nothing like michealting said, I don't know where he came upon all his stuff and in fact, I feel offended by his post because it was extremely misleading and could have led me to avoid KYUEM if I didn't know better. Smoking is prohibited here in KYUEM, and I've never seen anyone smoking here, needless to say drugs. So far the chalet is a pretty quiet place, no blaring music or so what. And the seniors are actually very welcoming, VERY VERY welcoming. They greet us, have sessions early in the morning before class with us and just after class with us. I've seen my seniors studying at night just to catch up for the classes missed when they were having sessions with us. The seniors even visit our chalets at night and have tea while chatting with us. And I don't think asking for seniors' signatures during induction is a silly thing, it helps us to get to know them faster. Of course, we do pretty ridiculous things to get their signatures, but it's not shameful but rather fun. And if you really can't do the things the seniors ask you to do so, you can always come back later and they'll give you another task. They don't force you btw.

2. The teachers are not "ridiculously bad". Michaelting seems not to know the line between exaggerating and lying. I admit some of the teachers might not be that good, especially the locals, but after conversations with them, I simply can't group them into the "bad" category. The worst I could do was to group them as "moderate". And some of the teachers I've spoken to are really brilliant, especially the maths teachers. I remember asking a teacher what was the line between maths and further maths, and he was able to point out really clearly the differences between them and what made further maths so hard. It was brilliantly explained, and I was impressed.

3. NO, the students here are not all about studying. In fact, all the students here I've seen are either good debaters, or took sports at national/state level, or something else. Club activities are wholely organised by the students themselves and are very active. Apart from the regular meetings and gatherings, we sometimes have night sessions for clubs, and there's big events in the college at least once every 2 months. I've just been here for 3 days, and I've already gone through a full Model United Nation session, on human rights for LGBT. 

Here's a few more things I would like to mention. KYUEM is isolated, the internet here is quite slow and the chalets' toilets are rather small. These are the only cons I can think of about KYUEM. However, the seniors are all brilliant students and warm-hearted guys and girls. What makes the college special is that it is an isolated, full boarding school. That's what makes the students here so independent and they stick to each other and are always ready to help. The community of students here is like a family, where everyone knows each other and help each other, which is absent in other colleges I have seen. With the excellent teachers here, warm seniors and brilliant fellow classmates to guide you, I must say KYUEM is an excellent place to study your A-Levels.
