Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes, You will be eligible to obtain an Acceptance Letter, Eligibility Letter, or a Conditional Offer Letter. However, you must provide accepted English Proficiency Test prior to the beginning of your study. If you weren't able to secure the required result on time, then you will be required to set for an Intensive English Program offered by your university -only if your program and university facilitate that option-.
  • The whole visa (eVAL) application process takes about 4-6 weeks. This is an estimate and is up to the discretion of the immigration and EMGS.
  • All students who wish to study in Malaysia are required to obtain a Student Pass. Before a student is eligible to apply for a Student Pass, he/she must first apply for what is called an electronic Visa Acceptance Letter (eVAL) through EMGS. An eVAL is a letter issued by the Immigration Department prior to travel, indicating that the applicant is eligible for a student Pass upon arrival in Malaysia and completion of the remaining Post-Arrival required procedures. An eVAL is issued as an electronic copy through EMGS instead of a tangible paper letter.

    - Inconsistent program choices.
    - Bad language/communication skills.
