University Merit Scholarships
Most private universities (APU, UCSI, MMU) offer merit-based scholarships. If you have high grades (e.g., straight As), you can get 10% to 50% off your tuition fees automatically.
Malaysian International Scholarship (MIS)
An initiative by the Malaysian Government to attract bright minds from around the world. It covers tuition fees and provides a monthly allowance. Competition is high.
Early Bird Waivers
Many universities offer an "Early Bird" discount (usually RM 1,000 - RM 3,000) if you register a few months before the intake starts. It's the easiest way to save money.
Sibling & Alumni Discounts
If you have a sibling studying at the same university, or if you are continuing from Bachelor's to Master's, you are often eligible for a loyalty discount.
