Applications for admission into public higher education institutions (IPTA) for students from outside the national education system will open on June 30.
Higher Education Director-General Datuk Prof Dr Azlinda Azman said the applications will initially be handled directly by the respective universities before being integrated into the UPUOnline system starting next year.
“In fact, preparations for the UPUOnline application process have already been underway since the end of last year.
“In line with the decision set by the Cabinet, universities have held several engagement sessions and, God willing, applications will be opened directly through the universities offering the relevant programmes beginning June 30,” she said.
She was speaking at a special press conference on admission pathways for students from outside the national education system into IPTA today.
