Weird for someone to take both IGCSE and SPM. And SPM results aren't out yet hmm.gif
Anyways, go apply for Sunway. That's what's locally famous for.
Taylor's, not so much besides for connections overseas.

Do visit both campuses to see which you like more and talk to the Head of Programs and ask someone to guide you around.

If you want to compare just between these two institutions, I'd say Sunway is the better choice. Both are accredited and approved by ACCA so there's no issue on that.

You can also consider taking CAT and ACCA at Sunway College instead of taking Accounting degree.

Sunway & Taylor's popular in Accounting & Finance.

Taylor's University Lakeside Campus
- The have new syllabus
- Good environment ( Life and Study Balance)
- Lecturers are helpful and kind
- Nothing is near, need car or taxi and rely on uni bus.

(If manage to maintain 3.0 Cgpa by year 3)
- Easy to get internship
- Easy to get a job before even graduating.

If wanna do Accounting & Finance degree in Taylor's, recommended to go thru foundation straight up to degree.


Sunway Univeristy
- New bulding
- Good syllabus
- Sunway pyramid is near
- Literally everything is near, can walk nonit car

So pretty much up to you. Choose either one you, not gonna lose. Just see which one is near and suit you. Wishing you all the best.

You're not helping at all. If you choose universities based on "gals", then might as well just quit studies and focus on finding gals instead.

Neither.

Better go for the four-year MIA-recognised accounting programmes offered by universities such as UTAR, MMU, Uniten, etc.

By the way, it's Sunway-TES that is popular for the accounting programmes (specifically the ACCA programmes), which is a different entity from Sunway Uni.

I will take accounting degree instead of CAT and ACCA. Actually I was a science student in secondary school, but I found that I'm interested in accounting. I have no base on accounting.

If I'm not mistaken, you can still take CAT and then ACCA even if you don't have a base on accounting. The entry requirements for CAT do not require Accounting in SPM or IGSCE, just 5 credits including English and Maths.

Sunway TES is the centre based in Sunway College that offers professional accounting programmes like CAT and ACCA.

Like what LightKey above mentioned, Sunway-TES is a centre offering professional programmes like CAT, ACCA, and the ACA (ICAEW) programmes. This is the one which is popular among students.

I'm not sure if u're local or a foreign student.

Choosing between Sunway Uni or Taylor Uni is like choosing between Pepsi and Coke. It's up to your own preference.

At the end of the day, what matters most is the professional accounting programme that you have to take. Professional qualification is still the ultimate qualification in the accounting field, not the academic degree. Instead, choose the one that will offer you the maximum exemptions.

I believe both (Sunway or Taylor) are the same to me in terms of their number of exemptions to be obtained from ACCA.

That's why I said the better advantage is the MIA-recognised accounting programmes offered by universities like MMU, UTAR, Uniten, INTI Nilai, MSU, etc. You will get an automatic MIA membership (you still have to complete the three-year experience requirements) and you will also be getting maximum exemptions from ACCA.

Very short of supply of accounting graduates in good and bad times. If you think our economy is spiraling downwards get into Insolvency, Corporate Rescue or Restructuring Departments. Taxation is also a good choice with the gomen squeezing the last drop from both corporates or individuals.
