How to finance your studies?

Once you decide on a course of action, the next major challenge is to fund your studies.

For Malaysian school leavers, you are lucky to have the option of applying for a National Higher Education Fund study loan, commonly referred to as PTPTN (Perbadanan Tabung Pendidikan Nasional).

PTPTN was set up to provide education loans for Malaysian students pursuing their tertiary studies at local higher education institutions (private and public), and over RM50 billion has been disbursed to over two million students since 1997. 

PTPTN loans are divided into three categories – full, partial and tuition fees only. Eligibility for application is determined based on monthly household net income and number of dependents in your family.

The following are prerequisites to apply for a PTPTN study loan:

• You are a Malaysian national under 45 years old
• You have an offer letter for a programme at a local institution approved by PTPTN
• You have a valid SSPN-i/SSPN-I Plus account. Click here for details.
• For those already studying at a local high education institution, you have more than one year left to complete your programme
