Zambry urges students not to let financial problems derail studies

KUALA LUMPUR - Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir has urged students receiving offers to study at public universities, but facing financial or other issues, to immediately reach out to their respective institutions or the Ministry. Dr Zambry emphasized the priority is to ensure students register and continue their studies.

This advice follows the announcement that 82,092 students had been offered places in bachelor's degree programs at 20 public universities this year, accounting for 76.10% of the 107,875 eligible applications received through UPUOnline for the current intake. The government's admission process is merit-based, and all eligible candidates are ranked from highest to lowest based on their merit scores.
