Applying to a Malaysian university from West or North Africa, France or another French-speaking country can feel daunting, with a different system, document translation and a student visa to arrange from far away. The good news is that the path is clear and well-trodden, and Malaysia has become a favourite for French-speaking students thanks to English-taught degrees, a welcoming environment and affordable costs.
This guide is written for French (Français) speakers — read it in that language by switching the site language. It walks through the full journey step by step: choosing your course, checking entry and English requirements, preparing and translating documents, getting your offer, and obtaining your Student Pass via EMGS.
Requirements, fees and timelines vary by university and change over time, so we confirm the current specifics for your shortlist for free. Contact YSTC for free, no-obligation help planning your application.
