timeslot is a certain time period given to you, to register for classes or apartments.

no need to worry la. haha. the IT college is darn nice and quite high tech coz it's just build few years ago. during the orientation you will have some sessions there. wish COE could be like that, haha. once you come here and settle down everything will be fine.

no it's not a must. i have many friends staying outside of uniten. but for the orientation week i think you are required to stay in the hostel. nice la you have house near uniten. like my friend, everyday parents send, just like going school only..haha. can save on petrol

timetable already preset, but luckily for me not all 8am classes. the most also 1 day only got 8am class. the rest all 9am, some days 10am.

btw, when enter 1st year degree 1st sem, our timetable already preset or we choose ourself?

nope, i think it's given when we come back after sem break. maybe on the 1st day perhaps?

syun's right. my housemates all doing the same course, same class. so everyday go class go together, go everywhere also together. can help each other also, whether studies or assignments. hopefully degree we get same class again

yeah, better call them. last time my friend had his intake application lost in post. luckily he called them and ask, and the case was settled. if not then dunno how d. guess he wouldn't be here now.

i got a different race roomate for my 1st sem, at first i was worried. but after 1-2 weeks ok d, he seems quite a nice person afterall. so even though you get different race roomate it should be ok. maybe depends on your roomate character also la. hopefully you can get a nice roomate. hehe. dun worry about knowing new friends, you will get to know some new people during orientation. sometimes during all those speeches, can chit-chat then make friends lo.

i heard the pahang campus quite far from the nearest town/city. hope you'll find it easily.

for 1st sem i dont think can le. coz they give you the room already. 2nd sem onwards you can choose your own room. maybe you can try discuss with your roomate, ask him to smoke in the hall, or outside, but not in the room. if your roomate is considerate enough, i'm sure he'll know what to do.

can, can stay outside. haha. take your time. survey around 1st to see where's the most suitable place for you. meanwhile try to get transport to move around too. then easier when the time comes for you to really move out.

although they never said anything i think it's better to wear long pants whenever doing any business with the admin, be it payment or academic stuff. you respect the rules then people also feel good to help you. so far i never seen people 'kena' scolding for indecent clothing, but i've seen students get warning for some fancy hairstyle. not to scare the new students, actually nothing one la..maybe the guy was really unlucky...
as long as your clothing is decent then it's ok..

student

i see. mechi degree or foundation? i baru foundation. start degree this coming july.

as said earlier in previous posts, i dont think you can skip the orientation. coz you'll be in groups always. and they have your leaders to check on your attendance. so it's a bit hard la if you plan to skip.

haha. exactly. that was the hell part. reminds me of some army camp. and when siren on, the facilitators will come knocking at your room door. about the notification i dunno la. last time they gathered us all at dinner, and then give a short briefing of what and when the orientation really starts.

yeah. agreed. but i considered lucky la got schoolmates come with me, same course. so not so lonely the first few days when i still dunno people around.

here dont need to worry. like kayden said, they are very friendly, and they are willing to guide you throughout your orientation. just dont try to do any stupid stuff that cause trouble for them.

yes you'll be staying in the same room for the whole of the semester. unless thery decide to make some changes, or if got people move in/out.

can. but i'm not sure of the procedures. have to ask other seniors here. hehe.

oh..can change room wan ar...i din know about that...haha

mara dun hav loan/schlarship for foundie edy? AFAIK got le..some of my friends taking mara. i also take ptptn for this year, but not full loan.

during orientation yes you must. dress codes are stated in the previous posts.
