Study in Malaysia
For a University of London Degree
London - a world class university with 150 years heritage of providing degrees by flexible and distance learning.
Today we have over 2,500 students who are studying in Malaysia. The majority of these students study at the major local institutions that teach for our degrees in Malaysia. Many other young Malaysians cross the border in to Singapore and study at the local institutions that we work with there. To find out more please visit our Directory of Institutions.
Our qualifications are internationally recognized and portable. Students study and take their exams locally through the Ministry of Education in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Kuching or Kota Kinabalu. However, if your work or family causes you to move you can take your studies with you as we have exam centres all over the world.

UEC qualifications: You will also satisfy our general entrance requirements if you have passed at least 5 UEC’s at grade B or above together with at least 3 SPMs passed in non overlapping subjects with English passed in the SPMs. (If you have not passed English in the SPM’s , then a specific English language qualification would likely be required.) For the degrees in Economics, Management, Finance, Social Science one of the UEC OR SPM subjects must be Mathematics.
A 1+2 programme with real choice
Our courses are not only well respected, but also recognised by a wide range of universities for transfer or as the first part of a 1+2 programme. This means that many students study the first year of their degree in Malaysia and the second and third year either at a College of the University of London, another university in the UK, or elsewhere. Many UK universities have special admissions arrangements for second year entry from our courses including Kingston, Reading, Surrey, Sheffield and Westminster.
