Bachelor degree at UPSI
You cannot enter university in Malaysia after the 11th grade, as school education here lasts longer. Applicants need to eliminate the academic difference. There are two ways to do this: either study for a year at a university in your home country, or complete one of the preparatory programs (A-Levels, IB, Foundation, etc.).
UPSI campus
The suburban campus of UPSI combines features of an urban and rural campus. It is located outside the big city, which allows you to focus on your studies. However, it is also not too far, opening up access to more types of recreation, both outdoors and in the city (theaters, museums, restaurants). The university has a functioning library. In addition to educational materials in various scientific areas, it contains a collection of classical and contemporary literature. The exchange of intercultural experience occupies a special place in training at UPSI. The educational institution regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs and organizes various joint events.
