📝 How to Apply
Eligibility check and document preparation
Review the programme entry requirements and confirm your prior qualifications are eligible for international applicants. Prepare your application form, certified academic documents, English language evidence, and your school leaving or completion certificate. Sunway College Johor Bahru requires the application and initial document submission well ahead of the intake so that visa processing can be completed in time.
Submit the international application and supporting documents
Complete the International Student Application Form and attach the required documents. Include English language competency evidence (IELTS/TOEFL/MUET) at the required level, along with certified true copies of academic qualifications. If you need hostel accommodation, submit the residence application form as part of your application package.
Pay required fees and receive the Letter of Acceptance
After your eligibility is confirmed and your application is complete, the university issues a Letter of Acceptance if you meet the academic entry requirements for the programme. Sunway College Johor Bahru then submits the application and documents to Education Malaysia Global Services (EMGS) for approval and student pass processing. This step depends on submitting the required fees and a complete document set.
Visa Approval Letter and travel preparation
After EMGS processing, a Visa Approval Letter (VAL) is issued, and you can start travel arrangements to Malaysia. You must enter Malaysia before the VAL expires. As international students are required to apply for a Single Entry Visa (SEV) before travelling, follow the Malaysian High Commission guidance in your home country and coordinate with the university’s international office for next steps.
