September Intake in Malaysia: Universities, Courses, Deadlines, Application Process, & Benefits

The September Intake in Malaysia is the main and largest intake for international students. Most public and private universities open their admission during this period, offering the widest range of courses and scholarship opportunities.
If you’re a Bangladeshi student planning to study in Malaysia, September is the best time to begin your academic journey with the support of AIMS Education.

Why the September Intake Is the Main Intake

The September Intake is considered the primary admission season because:

  • Almost all top universities open applications
  • Most popular programs (Engineering, Business, IT, etc.) are available
  • More scholarship and financial aid options are offered
  • Sufficient time for application, visa, and travel arrangements

This intake usually attracts a large number of Bangladeshi students due to its wide course availability and convenient academic calendar.
