Public University Entry Statistic
Not everyone who
scored a 4.0 CGPA in the Sijil Tinggi
Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM) or equivalent
got his/her first choice when applying for a
place in degree programmes in public
universities. “This is because we didn’t
only look at their academic results but also
their co-curricular activities,” said Higher
Education Department director-general Prof
Datuk Dr Radin Umar Radin Sohadi to The Star
on 19th June 2008.

For those students unable to secure a place in public universities,
tamiliyakkam advised them to further their studies in IPTS or other
Institution. They were also advised not to depend on scholarships
from the Government but rather to try to look for alternatives for
the financing of their tertiary education. For example, to work
while studying or to go into distance learning.
