International Scholarships at Multimedia University Malaysia

Multimedia University (MMU), Malaysia, founded in 1997 as the country's first private university, runs a range of scholarships and study loans for international and domestic students entering full-time undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. Awards range from partial tuition discounts to up to 100% tuition coverage, with the value depending on the specific scheme and the sponsorship arrangement, so a typical award sits in the ~RM10,000–RM60,000 (~€2,000–€12,000 (est.)) tuition range across a 3- or 4-year degree. Most schemes are decided on academic merit, with some also weighing financial need. To be considered you must hold an offer for a full-time MMU programme: undergraduate entrants need a high-school certificate or equivalent and postgraduate entrants a first degree or equivalent, and applicants are expected to be motivated, responsible and strong communicators. For most scholarships there is no separate form – enrolled students are automatically considered – but the schemes, percentages and any deadlines vary by intake, so confirm the exact current-cycle scholarship list, award values and closing dates on the official MMU financial-aid page before you apply.

What's covered

• Tuition discount — A partial-to-full tuition waiver depending on the scheme, ranging up to 100% of tuition for top awards.

• Undergraduate & postgraduate — Support available for both bachelor's and master's level full-time study at MMU.
• Automatic consideration — For most schemes, admitted students are automatically assessed, with the tuition reduction (worth up to several thousand euros) applied to fees.
