Sunway University

Sunway University is in Bandar Sunway (Sunway City Kuala Lumpur), Selangor — a vibrant, self-contained township in Malaysia's Klang Valley, close to Kuala Lumpur and well connected by the BRT and KTM lines, with shopping, dining and a theme park right next door.

As a guide, most bachelor's programs run around RM 30,000–50,000 per year (roughly RM 90,000–150,000 in total), with foundation programs lower and Medicine considerably higher. A small one-off enrolment fee also applies. These are indicative figures that change by intake and program — your free consultation with YSTC includes a clear, up-to-date cost estimate for the courses on your shortlist.

Sunway sits in a self-contained township, so there are on- and off-campus housing options within walking distance of the campus, plus food, transport and shopping right there.
