This achievement was announced by Mara College chairman Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki at the graduation ceremony today.

The students will also undergo language and cultural preparation before their studies commence next year.

As of July 31, Mara College has graduated 1,497 students, with the total number of graduates since its inception in 1994 reaching 56,654. Dusuki emphasized that the college's mission is to provide a bridge for students with potential, determination, and aspirations to explore global opportunities, ensuring they acquire necessary knowledge, skills, and preparation while preserving their values and identity.

The chairman highlighted that measuring Mara College's success should not be limited to the number of students studying abroad, but rather on how their gained knowledge and experience can contribute to religion, race, and their country.
