Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) introduced a special admission initiative for the 2024/2025 academic session aimed at providing greater access to higher education for Sarawakian students from low-income (B40) families. The initiative offers Bachelor’s degree opportunities to local candidates who have completed STPM or equivalent diploma qualifications, particularly those who were unsuccessful in previous UPU applications. This effort reflects UNIMAS’s strong commitment to promoting educational inclusion and social mobility among underprivileged communities in Sarawak by ensuring that deserving students have the opportunity to pursue quality higher education regardless of financial background.

Refer No.2 Point : IPTA Foundation Financial Assistance

This financial aid funding is for students in the target group B40 and M40 who follow a basic level program with a family income of less than RM10,000 per month. Students who have registered to follow the course using the eligibility requirements of passing SPM or its equivalent are eligible to apply. Students are required to sign an agreement with a guarantor. No refunds will be charged but students will have to repay the aid money that has been given if they fail to follow the study program successfully. Applicants must be Malaysian citizens. The aim of this assistance is as a platform to help students from low and medium income families continue their studies up to the tertiary level.
