yes, of course those from stpm dun need to take again since they took it during stpm
but those from other qualifications need to take it during their course of study

i'm not sure what band is needed to graduate, band 3 i guess
*
for applicants with STPM, you'll require MUET to enrol into UTAR. however, i'm not sure the minimum requirement for MUET. for SPM holder, mostly they will look at your GCE-O. besides, UTAR doesnt provide MUET for those who wish to take. therefore, you can register as private candidate to take the test outside. i'm planning to do so too.

i quite agree wit mphpopular mentions..
we did pay the fee's and we do have our own right to request for what we want.
So far what i have seen..Kampar's lecturer was so so onli..their english ain't so gud..so when the lecturers teach during lessons cause the student don't quite understand what they teaching
*
ya. i agree with you in this case. i'm facing this problem too.

i went there yesterday..campus is pretty new.. didnt have the chance to go round it..it was so HOT...(temperature whistling.gif )

he hates it because it's a boring town. with nearly no entertainment like KL, for sure Kampar is a terrible place especially for those who've already get used to the lifestyle in big cities.

halo! I'm a girl!

I complain!

I went to westlake. they told me that i can't pay for the deposit anymore. 'coz they dun have enough rooms now. so building them 24/7 now. and I have to stay in classic house. means the hostel at ktar for at least 3 months! Rm140 for 1 single room. Then now the distance is far more worst than from utar itself.

The room's price gone up. The single room is RM295 now. And the room is so god damn small!

I don't care about the view, i Don't care about the mountain and tasik. I just hate that place!
*
ok. the rental has gone up since January of this year. this is inevitable since demand is more than supply now. i'm also complaining too but no point, we have no choice unless you stay outside.

Hi everyone here.
I can see there is a big fight(ok, I mean debate.  tongue.gif ) happening here but please allow me to ask some questions.  blush.gif

One of my friends has applied for the May 2008 intake and he is offered to enrol in Computer Engineering degree course at Kampar campus. From the information I get, the course belongs to FICT (Faculty of Information and Communication Technology) instead of FES (Faculty of Engineering and Science).

May I know why is it so? I thought Computer Engineering is something similiar to Electrical/Electronice Engineering but it focus more on computer systems? My friend feels worry about that because he didn't know the course is about IT instead of Engineering.

He also heard some rumors saying the courses in FICT are some "not so popular" courses, can anyone clarify this? I doubt it is true but I can't confirm it.

And also,

He plans to apply for course change to Electronic Engineering, will there be any minor/major problem? His main concern is about PTPTN loan, time needed for the process and the success rate.)

I hope I can get some replies from UTAR students soon as my friend is like... over-nervous? lol~
Thank you~  smile.gif
*
Computer Engineering is under FICT. for course transfer, the success rate is quite high indeed and it usually takes less than 1 month to process.

they told me the same thing. I have to go to classic house at ktar side. for at least 3 months! say got utar bus but I am still skeptical.

Still have to pay deposit after they informed you. Now the single room is RM295! such a rip off! sign contract for 1 year at that time. And they do not provide internet connection for half year. They say the moment you move in, half year don't have streamyx. do the math yourself.

shit place.
*
it's not they dont want to provide internet but it's a new area. you have to wait for a few months even for the telephone tiang only plus you know how the tmnet guys do things shakehead.gif i'm staying at Yale house now but you know we waited for 8 months for internet last time and i was staying in those shops ( near to Classic house) which are under danish house too before we moved into westlake.

QUOTE(eternity4av @ Apr 15 2008, 11:29 AM)
ya, same case for me too, but there will be bus provided right? need to buy the ticket 70cents from don't know which department, can someone clarify? forgotten, RM295, if still got, i'll take no matter what, rather than sunway univercity college apartment so less square feet but RM1700 per month.


Added on April 15, 2008, 11:31 am

you alone? got friend? my sister house still got place i think? but classic house got internet already right? then, stay there until got internet better,
*
buy bus tickets from General Office in block C. the bus is quite on time indeed. classic house got streamyx already but the rental is high.

Guys, would like to ask something. I had received the offer letter and student bill. It states there I should have three copies of the student bill while I only have two. Anyone in my shoes as well?
*
it should be student's copy, bank's copy and university's copy when you received it. after you made the payment at the bank, you'll only get student's copy back.

ya. the banker will take the university's copy too. you have to got 3 copies at first. however, it doesnt matter as long as you made the payment and you got your copy.

as long as you pass the foundation (CGPA 2.0), you'll be able to enroll into the course you want. however, they're being strict to STPM applicants in which they have to get good results to enroll into the popular courses.

as long as the course you study is recognized by MQA, you can work in government departments. it doesnt matter which university you're from.

hi everybody, i am about to go to UTAR foundation in engineering to continue to chemical engineering.....
are there any comments about UTAR for chemical engineering ???

i really wanted to do computer science, but after looking at unemployment of ICT graduates, i just changed my mind
to stick on something else, but to tell the truth i can do this computer things...

and i am successfully being rejected by JPA and Petronas ....

if you dont believe me look at this site and you will believe :
http://blog.satyaraj.com/2008/04/28/school...prime-minister/

and right now i am about to go for foundation under full scholarship, but 50% my frens said it is good
50% more said its not dat good.... for me to go monash n nottingham is not possible coz of money

but i heard jpa is giving for local to those 2 good universities... any information bout this ???
i got 9a's for my SPM 2007, i know its not good, but that is what i am capable of....

any good and bad comments ...... i will appreciate it
*
with 9As in SPM, you can definitely get 100% scholarship for tuition fees in your foundation which is approximately 4K out of 6K.

the dates for photo taking should be in the orientation booklet, or they will let u know during orientation.

correct. utar wants to standardize the photos. somemore need to wear coat but it'll be provided. the photo-taking period should be within 2 weeks after the orientation.
