I am asking a noob question here but please answer me T_T
After 3 years of diploma, am I going to the degree for sure? or I stand a chance being kicked out? I heard of something called credit transfer and I heard if qualify for that I can enter 2nd year of degree after diploma, can anyone tell me in detail? Thanks.

Syukri>> Thanks! I hope at 28th June can see you there =)

it is the time allocated for a subject in a week. Say, if 3 credit hours, u'll have 3 hours of that subject in a week (usually the case)

OIC... I am clear about it now. Thanks =)

Somemore questions to ask... My home is in KL, do I too need to stay in the hostel? is it compulsory?

And during normal classes (not Monday) we can't wear round-necked Tshirt? I barely have any collar Tshirts... I have at most 2 only... And can wear jeans?

emm,im thinking to do part time job while pursuing Diploma,do i have the time to do the part time or its gonna effect my studies??

Im really having financial problem right now.

Syukri, why not taking PTPTN loan? PTPTN loan is very easy to get, I can say as long as you apply you can get it FOR SURE...
I heard that PTPTN will loan you RM7000~RM8000 per annum if you are studying in local government university!
After deducting each semester's fee, I calculated around RM500 extra wang saku every month. But of course this RM500 need to be used in the hostel rent, food, transport etc but as long as you use it carefully, I think it's just enough. If it's not enough, getting some extra from parents (let say rm 100 extra) isn't very melampau right...

If you worry about the payback when you are working, don't worry, it's only Rm100~150 per month, you can easily afford it in the future... Moreover, if you still havent found your job, you no need to pay until u get your job =) I am getting PTPTN loan for sure...

i dont think anybody gonna reject u if u print B/W. would be very trivial. probably a good ground for u to sue UTM, if anything happens hahaha

Oh ok then I print B/W la... BTW, i saw someone in LYN saying that last time he got 3.2 CGPA for his diploma and cannot enter degree. So even I get 3.2+ CGPA I am not secured a place in degree?

EDIT: azarimy, I saw your reply in the thread "huaaa cammane nk apply utm neyhh"... I got it already, but must I have working experience to have better merit? Why cant I like people study form 6 or matriks, after finishing form 6 then straight away enter degree (if good result and get the offer)? After my 3 years of diploma, I can't enter degree just because "tak cukup tempat kosong" or "tak pernah bekerja"? I thought I can just study all the way and the graduate... If it's like this I need to think over it whether to accept this UPU or not...

merit comes from lots of ways. but working experience gives the biggest non-academic merit. meaning if u're not top scorer (mind u, 3.20 is not exactly stellar), u can easily boost ur merits by working experience.

to secure direct intake via academics alone, u need to be in the top 10% of ur graduating batch. look around u. if there are more people scoring 3.80-4.00, u should understand what a chance a 3.20 has. so do note: there IS a direct intake, but it requires a lot. university co-curriculum is a bonus too.

the study diploma+degree straight from several years ago is the integrasi programme, which is different. integrasi is technically a 5-6 year degree course that automatically takes u in without having to go through UPU. it's like a 5-6 year degree, but with a break in the middle and u're awarded a diploma. this system have been phased out already, i dont think there are any integrasi programmes left in UTM.

so if u wanna study straight from diploma to degree, score 4.00. simple!
*
The CGPA is calculated since the first exam in diploma? Means if in one of my exams I get B or C (like got anything happened or only on that particular exam) will it affect my CGPA? And what actually included in diploma... I know A levels and Form 6 have subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Math, general paper, then diploma is straight to the "mechanical engineering" syllabus?

Forgive me for asking so many questions in a moment but I am in confusion T_T thanks anyway

CGPA is calculated since the first exam, yes. and yes, if u screw up one exam even with an A-, u can say bye bye to 4.00.

diploma syllabus is course specific. check on the websites, usually they publish a rough guide to the subjects. and it normally is very different from A-levels or STPM, although they might share the same topics.

Thanks for your info... Waaahh... Get one A- then no more four flat T_T I always get 70+ only for physics in my F4 and F5 year althought I got A1 for SPM... I dont demand much, 3.8 already thanks God...

BTW I heard people saying you pursuing PhD in UK? How's it?

i'm not gonna tell u that 4.00 is impossible to get. there are those scored 4.00 before, but all will tell u to work damn hard for it. and if u understand the system better, at least u know how to score 3.80 and above without killing urself or ur social life wink.gif.

yes, i'm studying my PhD in the UK, and i can tell u it is shit. dont fall into this trap! save urself!

I see. But I still cannot estimate how much should I get to maintain a CGPA 3.8 now. Maybe I can get a clearer mind when I am studying.
Erm. I have something to ask your opinion. Ok the situation is like this. Now I am also waiting for JPA scholarship, which is also mechanical engineering but in UK. I don't know will get it or not, but just in case I got the offer, should I accept the JPA offer or go UTM and take the diploma? Most people will say "aiya, of course get JPA la! UK leh..." but I need professional's opinion. What's your view?
