hi everyone, i’m currently studying fia at sunway college and graduating around next year january. i’m considering mmu melaka for the llb programme because i heard their law degree provides clp exemption. i’ve considered taylor’s law before since i live at subang jaya so its much easier to commute, but after some time im honestly not very interested because of the higher fees and the amount of negative reviews i’ve come across. i’m mainly looking for a good university to study law at, with good career opportunities after graduating, while still being able to have a good student life and enjoy my university years. i’m from subang, so moving to melaka would be a pretty big change for me, and i’m trying to get a realistic idea of whether mmu would be a good fit before making such a big decision.
- campus life
what is student life like at mmu melaka compared to uni here like sunway? is there usually a lot happening on campus, such as clubs, events, activities, etc.? do students generally enjoy living there?
- accommodation & monthly expenses
if i were to stay in melaka, roughly how much should i expect to spend on rent and other monthly living expenses? is it better to stay on campus or rent outside?
- scholarships / financial aid
are there any scholarships, fee waivers or financial aid that students can apply for, especially for the llb programme?
- llb programme
for those currently studying law at mmu, how do you find the llb programme? i’ve heard that mmu’s llb does not have clp exemption. is this true, and how much of a concern is it for students?
- overseas opportunities
are there opportunities to study overseas, go on exchange programmes, or spend part of the degree at a partner university?
- travelling between melaka & kl
my parents are in kl, so if i study at mmu melaka i would probably want to go home fairly often. is there any shuttle bus or convenient transport between the campus and kl? how do students usually travel home, and roughly how much does each trip cost?
- overall cost
for someone coming from kl and moving to melaka, what would you say is a realistic monthly budget including rent, food, transport and going home occasionally?
would really appreciate honest opinions, especially from current or recent mmu melaka students 🙏
