A passport-style photo with a white background, a PDF copy of all passport pages (valid for at least 18 months), and your secondary school certificate with transcript. To apply for a student visa, you must be between 18 and 44 years old.

Why does a 7-month course only get a 6-month visa?

You usually enter Malaysia about one month before the visa is issued. You track your application in the EMGS app, and when it reaches 70% you enter Malaysia to complete the medical check and pay the fees. About 3 weeks after the check, your passport is submitted for the visa. That is why 5 to 7 months is covered by a 6-month visa. For a 1-year visa, register for 8 months or more.

How much is accommodation near the school?

From about RM 500 per month for a small room further away (30 to 50 minutes by train), up to RM 1,700 to 2,000 for a master room within walking distance. TRIGHT helps you find the right place for free.
