err.. no such course as Foundation in IT
It's either Foundation in Science or Foundation in Arts only May Intake closing date macam is 25th May if i am not mistaken.. Hostel... erm... kampar one i not sure, but PJ campus, no hostel.. you have to find houses or room to let your own, but this shouldn't be a big prob, as i've seen alot of rooms to let.. |

Foundation in IT? Choose Foundation in Arts, Stream C. Where you will learn linear programming, General Maths 1 and 2. That's the only difference from Stream A and B.
Wanna know more can go UTAR yourself and ask. |

QUOTE(Pmc @ Apr 21 2008, 10:22 PM) after registering n study for 1 sem.. then there'll be 1 topic.. "all utar haters come here" hahaha now exam season, everybody hates utar.  both pj and kampar got may intake. this i can confirm. pj punya "hostel" is MC. got bus from MC to Utar. kampar's "hostel" is westlake. they say got bus and most people will probably cycling from there. I did mention about Foundation in IT just now. so u go apply lah. u 1990 one izzit? |

If your STPM result is not good enough, they will only offer you a place in Foundation. Unless you are willing to compromise and take whatever degree course (not your choice) they offer to you.

physics is not important in biotech, but chemistry is. you've got your answer. |

QUOTE(kel003 @ May 2 2008, 02:53 PM) well, bad to say Chemistry is the most important science subject in determining what stream you will enter. They wont offer any places to someone who failed their Chemistry, as the places are very limited. But, if you wanna have a try again, try to apply again during January Intake. January intake will less student, and hence less competition for you.i have credits in physics and biology but not chemistry, i get 7D for it Damn, |

QUOTE(kel003 @ May 2 2008, 06:33 PM) well, its ok but at least they should let me noe the reason Erm... I guess generally no uni will tell the applicants why they can't get the course they want, unless you purposely go ask the uni.or let us know the requirements for each courses they just put foundation in science need just 5 credits in any 2 science subject and maths. just wasted my wang pos money for a courses i din get And meeting the minimum requirement doesn't mean they must give you what you want. I get the 2nd choice in my application too. Quote from UTAR official website: QUOTE Entry requirements vary depending on the course you wish to apply for. In order to be considered for admission to a programme of study, you would need to satisfy the minimum entry requirements and other conditions of entry for the particular programme you are applying. You should note that meeting the minimum entry requirements will not automatically qualify you for a place. Successful selection for admission to any programme shall be at the sole discretion of the University. Source: http://www.utar.edu.my/contentPage1.jsp?contentid=36&catid=2 |

There is no such thing as a october intake for foundation.I am guessing you are a SPM 2007 leaver who missed the deadline for the May Intake?If so,then the next intake will be on this January so start applying 3 months before it |
