Malaysian Scholarships 2023-2024 For International Students : Study in Malaysia Fully FundedMarch 24, 2023 by

There are plenty of good reasons to study in Malaysia, even if you’re not Malaysian. The universities there are rapidly improving as the country has focused on improving its educational system to meet international standards.

The cost of studying and living in Malaysia is also significantly lower than in countries such as the US, the UK, and Australia. It is also one of the safest countries in the world with its relatively low crime rate, while the climate is either sunny or rainy all year.

You can check out the following scholarships that might make things even easier for you:

#1.Albukhary International Scholarship Programs for Undergraduate Degree Program
