Hey guys, I just got my offer letter from mmu today to study deg in Tele Comm Eng. There're a few things I'd like to ask,

1) in the offer letter it is stated that I need to have a min requirement of band 3 for MUET within one year from the date of registration (this year, 7th June). Does it mean I have to take the MUET privately? I used my GCE 1119 to apply, is it still valid/recognised? Can I just tell them that I have sufficient requirement with my 1119?

2) During the orientation, is it compulsory to be smartly dressed as in collared shirt with slacks for guys? Is it also part of the class dress code? Or is it casual everyday for classes? ( I'm sorry to ask bout this) bcos they sure did emphasize alot on the formal dressing for the orientation.

Also, is there anyone out there who's got the same course as me?

I got offered in Melaka actually.

Isnt it compulsory?

Forgive my ignorance, when I went to enquire bout Aussie uni's in general most of them accept 1119 results. So, I assumed that most Malaysian private Uni's are okay with it. But yeah fruitie, point taken. MUET= Malaysian University English Test

Bring cash. Cash is all you ever need.

Hehehe kidding.

Bring your clothes, formal and casual ones.
Stationeries, paper and your study bag.
Your laptop.. your essential gadgets, ipod, psp, cellphones and etc
A pail maybe to do your laundry.
Shoes, formal leather ones, sports, casuals and etc.

Hmm going Melaka campus, which one is cheaper? staying in campus or off campus? Degree students (1st year) need to stay in campus? Any recommendations? Anyone looking for roommate or housemates?

Are u from melaka? Are you willing to keep me? plssssssss

Is there a male-female segregation for the Ixora apartments? Say from your experience, have you stayed in the campus before? Which one would be a long term cost saving option?

K cool word of advice taken.

ME!

Nope but going Melaka for telecomm degree. So see you there

fruitie, wanna ask you bout the Ixora apartment. The internet connection is it a local service provider or streamyx? Is the connection good?

Thanks guys for the info

Since I dont know anyone yet ( I dont have any friends in Melaka) dont think I'd fancy staying with a stranger, I mean at least the chances are higher that you'll get a MMU student for a roomie at Ixora or EP right?. Maybe after a few sems.

Haha yeah, thanks

How do you get caught sneaking in somebody? Say if you successfully managed to sneak someone up ur room and hide a few days? The guards patrol around?

I was thinking of Ixora

So can your friend use your access card and move around without alarming the guards while you lay low in ur unit? Or is there a hi tech uploaded pic of u into the card's chip?

I'm only attracted by the facilities they provide, but hearing the strict ruling kills abit of the fun i guess everything comes with a lil bit of price.

Would it be too late to book a week before orientation? I sent an email to them for reservations but looks like they havnt replied. Havnt got time to call yet until the weekend cos busy working. Dont think so got time to go down melaka and look for accomodations elsewhere

Err, website says swimming pool gym and etc? Marketing gimmick?

No disrespect to the seniors but the letter of offer clearly states the dress codes bout being formal for registration day and something bout no jeans. Might sound like a goody two shoes here but shouldn't we be aware of these? Do they really let u off the hook? Or has the committee style changed?
