Hello, i'd like to know more about IMU ... How is the apartments over there? Where do students stay normally? What about food? Surrounding is there any restaurants? And is there any entertainment or shopping complexes nearby?

Oh! And what is the dresscode for the students? Especially girls... Pharmacy course.. ))

Hmmm, first, where are you from? Will you be having a car around? The apartments (Vista Komanwel, Savannah, Covillea) are generally good, depends on your standard. For Vista, rent can be around RM200-RM700 depends on the room size, furnishings and utilities included or not. You can try access this FB group for information about Vista https://www.facebook.com/groups/124237717600780/. There are 3 Vista condo, mainly Vista A, B and C. Vista B is directly opposite IMU, hence price might be slightly higher. Vista C is just 200m away, and have the best security among the 3 Vista condos. Vista A is slight further and is the oldest condos, hence smaller rooms/units.

Savannah will be slightly expensive as it's a newer one and with bigger rooms. Another condo, which is the newest one near to IMU is Covillea. It's very spacious and the renting price, i'm not so sure, but their facilities are very good.

As for the dresscode in IMU, it's formal wear. However, I have not seen much girls wearing super formal shirt with collar and stuff. Just make sure you dont wear a skirt that's too short, they are now getting more strict about this.

Oh thx so much! i m frm ipoh btw, so i ll not be havin a car wit me . sooo, is tat a problem? Are u IMU student? Can u pm me more about studying in imu?

Nope, not having a car is not a BIG problem. There's LRT station right opposite IMU as well. But you should be alright if you want to have some enjoyable/nice/good food outside IMU as you will be having lots of friends (including seniors!) around with cars.

I am currently an IMU student, 3rd year of Dentistry. Hence, I couldn't help you much about studying pharmacy in IMU. What do you want to know?

Well just about anything on hows life studying in IMU.. haha. Ok? Fun? As IMU is just a building so are the facilities ok? And what about entertainment there? The nearest shopping complex ?

Haha, well, the most fun part will be the orientation. As for the course itself, I have no idea. There are a lot of clubs to join as well. The facilities in IMU actually improved a lot since the year I entered. The gym is renovated last year, as well as the student lounge. Even the cafeteria is also renovated. New food vendor is introduced. Coffee vendor also just started to sell in IMU, called TheMadAlchemy. Nearest shopping complex will be Endah Parade, but that complex has nothing in it. There's also Midvalley and Sunway Pyramid which is just about 15 min drive away.

For dresscode, is blouse (sleeveless?) and pants allowed for females? Not really a fan of skirts. Do you see females wearing one-piece dresses?

Anyone can recommend a good mobile plan? Is there any student plan available? I'm looking for a good plan with mobile data. International student here.

Sleeveless blouse? Nope, don't see them wearing them, and I doubt they will try wearing it in IMU, as some of the classes can be cold haha. Yes, quite a few of them wear dresses. No problem with dresses.

Well thx a lot! Wat about food... Whr do u guys normally eat... ? Do u have restaurants around? And sports facilities bsides gym? Like swimming pool ? Hmm i dun think they hv it at imu... The condo i suppose?

Food, hehe, we tend to drive out for food. Maybe just because we are more of a food hunter. There are actually pretty good food around Sri Petaling also, just 5 min drive from IMU. If there's no time to drive out, there are plenty of food stall outside of IMU, like chee cheong fun, mixed rice, nasi lemak and so on. Sports facilities beside the gym? There's a basketball court, which can be used as volleyball court and futsal court as well. As for swimming, it's just in the condo, or the stadium just walking distance from IMU. Badminton court is in Vista B.

Well then can we go over to different vistas? Flexible?
Though u re dentistry course but nvrmnd, do u find the lecturers ok?

Hey anyone heard that IMU don't arrange housemanship for pharmacy students? But students have to apply on their own?? Someone told me that. :/ hmm.

Effective this Sept 2014, IMU students transferring to Liverpool U will pay 3,750 pounds additional per year and next year onwards it will be raised to 10,000 pounds.

Wow, another additonal RM200K and we hope the Ringgit at least maintain its current value.

I suppose they can attribute that to change in syllabus, or maybe they are trying to say "maybe don't pick Liverpool".

i think liverpool's move may be a prelude to exiting from the imu-pms arrangement....

there is a lag period from withdrawal, as students entering 2 1/2 years earlier needs to know what's available when they reach phase 2....

the message to students in the pipeline now is likely 'don't come here'.....

They do arrange for bpharm programme.

R u imu bpharm student?
