I was selected for UMP Computer Science in Software Engineering.

I would like to ask some opinion about the university.

1. The ratio of malay to chinese is really that huge? (I'm not racist, just wanna know only)
2. Lesson conducted in English or Malay?
3. How about the lecturers? Good? Superb?
4. Must stay in campus or I can stay at home? (house somewhat nearby)
5. Fee structure?

I hope that someone could help me because I'm currently 50:50 either to go or not since I got scholarship to study in SEGi.

@Hehehunter,
I will try to help you with some questions there.

1.According to tuckchai, he told me that in his class(Project Management course), there is 60 people, only comprises 1 chinese that is him and 1 indian the rest are all bumis.

2.I'm sure that engineering courses nowadays are mostly conducted in English medium.

3.Not sure about it.

4.I have learnt that, the policy of UMP is that, all UMP students MUST stay in the hostel except those who already married.

Jumlah keseluruhan is not RM1785... It'll be RM 520 + (RM1265 X 7) = RM9375.

Then I think most probably I'll go for SEGi since it's way less than this amount.

Rm 1,785.00 is the total fees you have to pay for the 1st semester... Not the whole course. =X

Then the whole course would be 9k plus... or maybe more? Can anyone clarify?

Yes, it's already more expensive than SEGi because my tuition fees are 100% covered.

the whole course around 9 to 10 k oni la. it wont run too much.. u can see frm the ump website at www.ump.edu.my
how much SEGI fees for whole course? if u get good result for stpm or spm, y don u try get sponsor or scholarship?
local uni is much cheaper compare to private and the hostels are cheap. one sem around rm500 oni included water, electric and wireless.

If I'm going to UMP, is it okay if I stay with my aunt? It's just at Kuantan.
If I stay in air-cond room, the RM455 doesn't apply as I need to pay RM1950. Not to say I'm born with silver spoon, but air-cond is a need to me because you'll see me sweating like no other = Cost of laundry + shirt will be higher than my air-cond.

SEGi whole fees will be RM 2,150. Others are all covered. I won't be staying in hostel since I'm staying not that far.

Besides, I would like to know how fast is the internet speed in UMP.

Because if I study in SEGi, I have access to my P1 Wiggy since that area is covered.

if u stay at kuantan, u need to take 30minutes to go ump and come back to kuantan 30minutes. total 1 hours plus.
sumore if u stay at kuantan, it is hard for u to do group discussion and group assignment.
u are not allowed to stay at outside ump once u r ump student. tis is the policy.

the speed in ump is slow, if more users, the speed will drop. btw, u cant dwl movies or torrent. they block it.
i m sorry to tell u dat, air cond room is not for local students like us. it is for international students frm china, arab, n master students.
even u have the $ but u cant get it. in the uni got washing machine, rm 2 for a big loads of clothes.

Aw... That's too bad.

no prob. so wat ur decision? SEGI or UMP?
*
Most probably I'll go SEGi since I pay less for the course (100% tuition fee waiver), less time taken (3 years for SEGi), more exposure to Computing Stuff since I'm in KL area as in more access to certain technology such as wimax.

However, if I go to UMP, I can meet you guys, more research can be done. I deeply love computing... The UMP course offered is a good one.
