Students can apply for a Variation application when they wish to change to another course or another institution. A variation application is not applicable when a student is progressing to a course at a higher level. It is only applicable to changes made by the student within the same level of study.
Please note that you cannot apply to change a course unless you have received a confirmed offer of study for that specific course.If you are applying to move to another institution, you must have a confirmed offer of study in that specific institution. Your original education provider must cancel the current Pass before you can apply. You are only allowed to change course or institution twice; see the illustrations below:
International Student enters Malaysia to Study Course A at College A
Apply to vary to Course B in College A before finishing Course A – this counts as one change
Apply to vary to Course B but at College B before finishing at College A – this counts as the second change
OR
Apply to vary from Course A in College A to Course A at College B – this counts as one change
Apply to redo Course A in College B after 2 years – this counts as the second change
