Start with the qualification

One university.
Different requirements.

APU is at Technology Park Malaysia, Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur. Computing, engineering, business and other programmes have their own academic, English and cost conditions.

This guide uses BSc (Honours) in Computer Science as a named example. It is not a university-wide fee average, an admission decision or a personal budget. Official sources checked 10 November 2026.

01 / Published international course total

Three levels.
A stated total.

The Computer Science programme page publishes a three-year international total. The 2026 international fee guide includes course and library fees in its schedule. This is not a total inferred by multiplying an annual fee.

RM 108,500About Rs 25.45 lakh

Published international course total before 6% SST, deposits and other miscellaneous charges. Not a confirmed 2027 invoice.

Computer Science international scheduleFull-payment rate
Degree Level 1RM 34,900About Rs 818,492
Degree Level 2RM 36,100About Rs 846,635
Degree Level 3RM 37,500About Rs 879,469

Full-payment and semester prices differ.

The guide lists each semester at RM 18,200About Rs 426,836 for Level 1, RM 18,900About Rs 443,252 for Level 2 and RM 19,600About Rs 459,669 for Level 3. Those semester rates do not reproduce the published full-payment total. Confirm the payment plan in your own invoice.

The fee guide excludes 6% SST and says fees are payable in RM. Deposits, registration, application costs, visa renewals, accommodation and living costs sit outside the course headline. No all-in budget is invented here.

The application charge needs an invoice check.

The 2026 PDF lists Stage 1 at RM 3,400About Rs 79,738, payable on accepting an offer, while APU's application-procedure and merit-award pages quote RM 3,600About Rs 84,429. These sources do not agree. Do not assume one figure is a tax conversion of the other. Obtain the current itemised invoice before paying.

The PDF separately lists Stage 2 at RM 2,000About Rs 46,905 after Student Pass approval and international registration/administration at RM 5,000About Rs 117,262. It describes Stage 1 as non-refundable once the offer is accepted and Stage 2 as non-refundable once the VAL is issued. Read the full current refund terms, including course payments, before accepting.

2026 fee guide / Application procedure / Merit-award conditions

All INR conversions use RM 1 = Rs 23.4525, historical close on 29 October 2026. Rounded planning figures, not an exchange-rate guarantee. The university may revise fees; the exact course, intake, tax treatment and invoice decide the payable amount.

02 / Academic evidence

Your certificate.
Your subject route.

Indian Standard XII is a qualification route, not a mark guarantee.

APU's December 2025 international qualification list maps Indian School Certificate (Standard XII), CBSE All India Senior School Certificate and Higher Secondary Certificates (Standard XII) to bachelor-level entry. That classification does not publish a course-specific percentage cutoff or waive subject conditions.

Read the country qualification list.

Computer Science has Mathematics conditions.

The programme lists multiple qualification routes. For example, A-Level science-stream entry requires two passes (Grades A-D), including a pass in Mathematics and one Science or ICT subject. Other A-Level routes refer to Additional Mathematics, or Mathematics plus Science/ICT at SPM/O-Level/IGCSE-equivalent level, with a Further Mathematics prerequisite module for the specified route.

These are A-Level routes, not converted CBSE percentages. Submit your actual board, subjects and marks for the university's equivalence and prerequisite assessment. Full Computer Science entry requirements.

03 / BSc (Honours) in Computer Science
5.0IELTS

A named-course English requirement.

The Computer Science page lists IELTS 5.0, TOEFL iBT 40, PTE 47 or MUET Band 3.5. Other programmes can sit in different score groups. This is not a campus-wide minimum.

Computer Science programme / English requirements by programme.

English-medium evidence must be documented.

APU's English page describes exemptions for students from English-speaking countries and qualifications taught in English, with supporting documents required for exemption applications. This does not give every Indian school-leaver an automatic MOI waiver.

A conditional English-language route does not mean the main degree can start without the required result. The page says students must reach the required English level within a maximum 12 months or cannot continue the main programme and must return home. Immigration approval remains a separate outcome.

04 / Named 2027 commencements

A start date
isn't the application date.

Both the Computer Science programme page and the Level 1 intake calendar list these starts. The calendar says international students must apply two months ahead for application, Student Pass and accommodation arrangements.

The application-procedure page separately recommends six to eight weeks and later says at least eight weeks. Use the calendar's two-month rule for planning, apply earlier where documents need time, and confirm the exact document cut-off. This is not a visa-processing guarantee.

BSc (Honours) in Computer Science25 March 2027Plan by 25 January 2027

Calculated by subtracting two calendar months from the published start, not a separately printed university deadline.

BSc (Honours) in Computer Science6 July 2027Plan by 6 May 2027

Calculated from the same two-month rule. Confirm programme, entry level and any offer conditions.

Intake calendar and lead-time rule / Named programme dates. Other routes, English courses, credit transfers and bridging modules have separate calendars.

Place / Learning spaces

Check your access.

APU publishes photographs and descriptions of auditoriums, classrooms, laboratories and other campus spaces. A campus photograph shows the setting, not the equipment, timetable or facilities access included in your chosen programme.

Explore the official facilities page.

05 / Selected residence examples

The room code
belongs beside the rent.

Monthly prices differ by location, room type and occupancy. These official listings are not checked vacancies, 2027 quotations or complete move-in invoices. The one-off charge is not described here as a refundable deposit.

On campus: OSP1 en-suite single

150+ sq ft room; the listed larger-room example. Official room listing.

Monthly rentRM 1,390About Rs 32,599
Listed one-off chargeRM 400About Rs 9,381

City of Green: COG4 compact single

Monthly rentRM 820About Rs 19,231
Listed one-off chargeRM 350About Rs 8,208

APU describes the off-campus City of Green apartments as furnished with shared living and cooking facilities and a scheduled shuttle service. Electricity and self-service laundry are pay-as-you-use. Availability is first come, first served. Confirm rental term, advance rent, deposits, tax, utilities, payment dates and refund/cancellation terms in your room offer before paying. No unverified total first payment is shown.

06 / Documents and funding

Get the assessment.
Read the conditions.

Prepare certified academic qualifications, English evidence, passport documents and the university's full current checklist. Forecast results may support a conditional offer, but final academic and English requirements still apply.

A published 2026 award isn't a guaranteed 2027 discount.

The current international merit-award page is titled 2026, lists qualification-specific discounts and says all countries/nationalities may apply. Its table refers to 2026/2027 final results, but its application deadline is 30 November 2026. That combination does not establish a new deadline for a later 2027 application.

The published rows cover A-Levels, O-Levels/IGCSE, IB and IB MYP, not Indian Standard XII percentage bands. No CBSE, ISC or state-board scholarship percentage is inferred here.

Awards are discretionary and first come, first served, apply to course/tuition fees only, and require at least CGPA 2.50 for subsequent-year renewal. Other costs remain with the student. Obtain the exact scheme, intake eligibility and written award before reducing your budget. Full merit-award rules.

  1. Choose the course and commencement.

    Confirm the qualification route, subject prerequisites, English evidence and available intake against the exact programme.

  2. Obtain the current invoice.

    Resolve the Stage 1 source difference, full-payment versus semester plan, SST, deposits, registration and refund terms. A course headline isn't a complete budget.

  3. Complete the application and Student Pass process.

    Follow the university's current international checklist and immigration instructions. Admission, English-course conditions and immigration permission are separate decisions.

  4. Confirm housing and arrival separately.

    Obtain a room offer and move-in payment schedule. Confirm travel clearance and the university's arrival instructions before making non-refundable travel plans.

Questions before a commitment

Keep the distinctions.

Is RM 108,500 my complete three-year budget?

No. It is the named course's published international course total before SST, deposits and miscellaneous charges. Accommodation, living costs and other fees are separate. The semester-payment schedule has different prices.

Should I pay RM 3,400 or RM 3,600 for Stage 1?

The public sources disagree. The 2026 fee PDF says RM 3,400, while application and merit-award pages say RM 3,600. Obtain the current itemised invoice for your course and intake before paying; neither amount is treated as settled here.

Does Standard XII recognition guarantee Computer Science admission?

No. Recognition identifies a qualification level. Subject prerequisites, marks, equivalence, English evidence and the university's actual assessment still matter. This guide does not invent an Indian-board percentage cutoff.

Are January and May the university's printed 2027 deadlines?

No. The 25 January and 6 May planning dates are calculated from published commencements and the international two-month lead-time instruction. Confirm your actual document and payment cut-offs with the university.
