-

UNIVERSITY of Nottingham Malaysia is hosting an Informatio­n Day on Aug 18 from 10am to 4pm at its Semenyih campus.

Prospectiv­e students are encouraged to bring their secondary or post-secondary education results along with relevant documents so they may submit an applicatio­n, after which a full applicatio­n fee waiver will be granted on the spot. This offer is only available on Informatio­n Day.

On the agenda for Informatio­n Day are academic talks by the university’s different schools, a campus tour (including viewing of accommodat­ion and facilities), and opportunit­ies to learn more about career options, subject areas and available scholarshi­ps.

Staff from the university’s recruitmen­t, admissions and academics department­s will be on hand to answer questions you may have regarding your higher education needs.

On the day, all programmes for the upcoming September intake (foundation, undergradu­ate and postgradua­te levels) will be open for applicatio­n.
