decision.

A Diploma in Business Administration provides a broad-based business education with exposure to global perspective of business. The diploma prepares students for future, building in them lifelong fundamental values and skills.

After the 2-year diploma, you can continue on to Year 2 of the Degree at the same university or college if the degree course is offered. There is no need to perform exemptions if you continue on to degree at the same university.
If not, you can transfer your diploma credits into another university to enter into Year 2 of the degree for another 2 years depending on the exemptions. It will take about one to three weeks for the university to perform the exemption evaluation.
To perform exemptions, you will need to submit the following documents to the university of interest for exemption evaluation:

• Transcripts for the subjects taken
• Course outline for all subjects taken
• Letter of Completion or Diploma Certificate
• Copy of SPM certificate

With any 3 credits in SPM including a Pass in BM & Sejarah, you can go for the Diploma in Business Administration course at a top private university in Malaysia.

"I attended EduSpiral's Education Fair at KInta Riverfront after my SPM exam in December and obtained great information there. Although Asia Pacific University is famous for IT but I found out that they have a solid accounting programme and I can get a UK degree. I got a scholarship as well from APU."
Julian Hum, from SMK St. Michael Institution, Ipoh studying Business at Asia Pacific University.

sure of what you want to study in the degree, go for Foundation because you have one year to decide on what to take for your degree.

Please note that there is no PTPN Loan for Foundation. For the Diploma you can apply for the PTPN Loan 

 

In the diploma you will study subjects related to your course while in the Foundation, you will study general subjects mostly unrelated to your course. Some diploma courses are 2 years while others are 2.5 years.

If it is 2.5 years, you may take longer to complete your degree. If it is a 2-year diploma, then the time taken is the same to complete the degree when you take Foundation.

• SPM (5 relevant credits) - Foundation (1 year) - Degree (2 years)
• SPM (3 relevant credits) - Diploma (2 or 2.5 years) - enter degree Year 2 (2years)
