Acceptance of Offer / Registration Acceptance of the offer of admissions is upon students having paid the full fees before or on the due date stipulated in the letter of offer. No student should enrol in more than one course of study in the College at any given time. Similarly, existing students with outstanding units to resit/repeat will not be allowed to enrol for another course in the College as they still maintain their student status in the current course. The onus is on the student to withdraw from his/her current course of study should he/she decide to register for another course in the College. Any student found to be pursuing more than one course of study in the College at any time is liable to have his/her student status terminated in one of the courses.
Credit Transfer / Advanced Standing Students applying for credit transfer must have completed their course and have good academic standing at the previous institution. Transfer of credits will only be awarded for previously attempted courses that earned a good grade and having comparable contents and classroom attendance to the course at Tunku Abdul Rahman College. All applications for credit transfer/advanced standing must be made together with the application for admission and submitted to the Kuala Lumpur Main Campus. Certified copies of the official transcripts, course structure, syllabi, samples of past examination papers and all relevant information and materials related to the post Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) studies must be enclosed with the application. Applications submitted without the above documents will be processed for normal admission without any consideration given for credit transfer.
A student who wishes to withdraw from his/her course must complete a prescribed withdrawal form obtainable from the Division of Admissions & Credit Evaluation and submit it to the Division together with the relevant documents or notify the Registrar in writing. A student who does not attend class or discontinues class attendance in a new semester without notifying the College of his/her withdrawal is liable to all fees due to the College for that semester and subsequently will be withdrawn from the College due to arrears of fees. The date the College receives the student's withdrawal notification is the official date of withdrawal even if the student has stopped attending lectures earlier. For refund of fees, please refer to 'Refund of fees for newly registered student who withdraws'.
Students who have registered for the course offered and wish to transfer to another course or campus are advised to apply for course / campus transfer. The prescribed application form for course / campus transfer is obtainable at the Division of Admissions & Credit Evaluation. Closing date for submission of completed application forms is normally on the second Thursday after the commencement of lectures for new students. Approval for the course/campus transfer is not guaranteed. Students will be notified of the outcome of the transfer through their respective school/campus of study. The decision of the College on the outcome of course/campus transfer is FINAL. Students whose transfers are successful are required to collect their transfer offer letter from their respective school / campus of study. For the transfer to take effect, students are required to pay the registration fee of RM50.00 and the difference in tuition fee / other fees (if applicable). There is strictly no refund of fees if fees paid for the former course is higher than the latter course. Students who have accepted the course/campus transfer will NOT be allowed to transfer back into their original course/campus of study after accepting the transfer through payment of fees.
