Prospective students can apply directly to some selected universities while others can apply through the Unit Pengambilan Universiti’s common portal (UPU).

Application fees and Supporting documents for the tertiary institution’s admissions

The institution requires a one-time payment before considering the form. We’ll go over how much an applicant is expected to pay, as well as how to pay those fees using this platform. Some colleges and universities do not accept or demand application fees. The fee is sometimes influenced by the applicant’s location and level of qualification. After paying the fees, applicants must attach proof of payment (receipt or banker’s draft) to the documents they submit to the institutions by the deadlines. Applications without supporting documentation will not be considered for admission in the year in which they are submitted.
