[desprado]

@desprado

I shall be applying for MPhill, so it will a step ahead from masters degree as i have complete 16 years education, so it means they will allow me work during studies?
is it tough to find part time job there?

Same degree as UK means there is no difference whether we study in UK or malaysia...right?
@wankelboy

no comparison between UK and malaysia means UK is far superior or Malaysia is a flop idea to idea. kindly elaborate the point with all consequiences.

And thanks for both of u for ur helpful reply

waiting for further details

Thanks

The study is same as UK because they are controlling the collage and UK provide the degree and as i said in student they dont allow u to work or do job of any kind but u can go and request if u want.

Hello,
In need of some guidance here, and would really appreciate if someone could provide their opinion.

I have a long due aspiration to do a Masters degree in Economics. I am 18 years old and have recently got BSc (hons) degree from Oxford Brookes University, but as it is a 3 years bachelors degree, I don't think I would have much luck finding a Masters' Program here in Pakistani Universities (because of the 4 years Bachelors standard here). But anyways, now I'm looking to travel abroad for it, that's where I need help. Can anyone kindly suggest to me which countries (and universities) would be better for me? My concerns are:

- Unfortunately my financial strength is very limited and I cannot afford an expensive program. My budget is $4k-$5k ($8k max) per year.
- A place where getting a scholarship is relatively easier would hence be my first choice, and
- A country with better future prospects for getting a job / rights to work after the completion of studies (one with low unemployment rate) is a big concern.

I do not have much job experience (only some internships) but have a sound history in curricular as well as extra curricular activities and achievements. Would this be of any help getting a scholarship? Also, would it be an advantage or a disadvantage that I am only 18 years old? I am also ACCA and ACA finalist, would this help?

I seek to get an admission in a program starting in Autumn 2014.

Would really appreciate if someone could answer any of the things above.

So guys I have finished my AS level, now this might sound a bit noobish, but when do I apply to a university if I intend to study abroad? Is it in Jan after finishing AS or after A2?

Its not noobish. You can apply during your A2 with your AS results and you'll get a conditional offer saying if you achieve xyz grades, you get in, otherwise you don't. But really its upto you, when you want to apply and when you're university starts.

So it won't be a problem if I apply after getting my A2 result? I can still apply then and not be left out and be forced for a gap year or something right?

How is University of Malaya,University of Technology Malaysia.My brother he has recently competed his higher secondary education and now i am concerned about his undergraduate education.We are preferring that he earns his bachelor degrees from abroad.All options are open.Getting admission in these universities is difficult?

What i have observed that Malaysia offers reasonable fees and the institutes have better accreditation than chinese universities,the proficiency in English is way better than mainland china and i hope the English courses are well organised.I want to know whether any students are enrolled in the above-mentioned universities(or any other malaysian universities),if so how is the quality of education,living costs,part time (allowed/not allowed min wage),job prospects in malaysia after graduation etc.

 

[SeriousDisorder]

UM (uni of malaya) , it is very hard to get in as they have very little quota seats for international students , like 2% of the total admissions per intake , my self applied in UM and
never got reply from them as it is the best university of malaysia and the fees is the least so the students from different developing countires are tyring to get in . In UTM(university technologi malaysia) they have a greater quota and the fees is like 2 lacs per year for engineering so the case is similar .!!
the degree Accreditation by Malaysian board of engineers is accepted world wide and has great value ... living cost is very low , around 20-25k PKR per month dependent on individuals , part time is hard to find but alot of my friends are employed on average type of jobs .

Depends if you CGPA is good and your extra curriculars are exceptional.You can pursue erasmundus scholarships for EU region,KGSP for korea,MEXT for Japanese universities(complete tuition+ living expenses)..Many south korean universities with international programs provide full tuition fee waiver along with living expense.

Avoid AUS,CAD because scholarships are scarce and very rare,education is a business there.

On non-scholarship basis Germany should be your prime destination followed by norway and finland..German public universities do not charge any tuition fess,just a semester contribution around 100-250 euros/year.Earning power in GE is also good,you can do part time jobs to compliment your expenses.

South Korea and Germany have lots of oppertunities provided you cross the language barrier.
