Many of us leave our hometown in pursuit of higher studies and the first thing we need in a new city is shelter. Apart from attending classes, this is the place where most of your time will be spent. Now, you have infinite online portals and agents to find you a good place but how would you know if that is the suitable place for you? So, we came up with these 5 things that you must consider to choose the right place for you.

1) Room size

Room size (Beyond the Classroom)

Room size is one of the most important features to consider when you select a house. For example, if you have luggage full of clothes and a variety of shoes for every season, a closet room is certainly not for you.

For starters, you’ll want to make sure that you have enough space to fit all of your belongings. Additionally, if you plan on having visitors, ensure it’s not too small and crampy and that you have enough room for everyone.

2) Natural lighting

Natural lighting is essential for a comfortable room. Not only does it make the room look brighter and cheerier, but it also helps to reduce stress levels and improve your overall mental health. Plus, it also helps you focus on your studies. 

Natural lighting helps to regulate your circadian rhythm, which is important for getting a good night’s sleep. It can also help you stay more alert and productive during the day.

3) Amenities

Another important factor to consider when picking the perfect place is the amenities it offers. Make sure your place has sufficient air conditioning and a comfortable bed. Additionally, its better if your kitchen comes with pre-installed stove and a water heater or oven.

Other essential thing is to check the bathroom. Ensure that your bathroom taps and commode flush work properly and its not too stingy or dirty. Plus, if you like to workout or take evening strolls, select a place that has a gym, garden area or swimming pool.

4) Location

Location (Beyond the Classroom)

The location is a must to consider when looking for a place. Firstly, you have to ensure that its close to your classes as well as other places that you’re likely to frequent, such as the cafeteria, the library and other important facilities. 

Additionally, vet the area to ensure that the neighbourhood is secured and guarded since you are staying on your own for the first time. Also, its best if it is close to public transportation as it will allow you to move around conveniently.

5) Cost

Cost (Beyond the Classroom)

Finally, you’ll want to make sure that you consider a place you can afford. Take account of the rent, utility bills and upfront deposit to check if it is within your budget. Also, make sure the place you are renting has your desired facilities so you don’t have to spend any extra money for that.

If you don’t know the area or neighbourhood, it is easy to be mislead or end up overpaying for something that you don’t need, such as a private kitchen or a luxury suite. So, try to do some research on the market rental of your property area to negotiate an affordable price.

  • Meet Audrey 🌟—a future medic exploring what life could look like at #MonashUniversityMalaysia! 🩺📚

With a strong passion for medicine and a dream to one day help people, Audrey joined a campus tour and consultation to learn more about MBBS at Monash. From experiencing the lively campus atmosphere (her parents were amazed—and a little overwhelmed—by how active it was compared to their own uni days!) to chatting with staff and students, the visit gave her a real glimpse of what her future could look like in Malaysia. ✨

She was impressed by the supportive environment and gentle counselling from Monash staff, which made her even more confident about her study options ahead. And yes—she gave Monash food a glowing 10/10 review 🍜😋

Special thanks to Team #EMGA for making her visit smooth and stress-free. 💛

Curious about studying medicine in Malaysia? 🚀 Contact #EMGA to book your campus tour or start exploring your application options today! 🌟

  • Meet Elijah 🌟—now officially a Bachelor in Business Management (Hons) student at #UTP! 📚✨

Elijah admits he was super nervous at first and relied completely on Team #EMGA to guide him through his application and arrival. Even when he landed 4 hours earlier than expected for his airport pickup, he embraced the moment as the real start of his independent journey. 🛬🌏

Easy-going and full of good vibes, Elijah has always been a “go with the flow” kind of guy—but this is his boldest step yet: living and studying away from home, discovering life beyond his comfort zone. 💪

He also shares lots of love and gratitude to Ms. Amanda, who guided him to UTP and played a big role in helping him choose Malaysia. 💛

All the best, Elijah! May this new adventure be filled with growth, friendship, and countless memories #BeyondTheClassroom. 🌟

  • Say hello to Abdul Rahman from Kuwait 🇰🇼 — our humble and independent student who’s beginning his Chemical Engineering journey at #UTP! Tall, grounded, and kind-hearted, he arrived with his supportive father by his side — a family bond we truly admire. 💛

We first met Abdul Rahman and his family at the Yes2Malaysia Expo during Ramadhan, where they connected with Mr. Zamani from UTP. Alhamdulillah, that first meeting has now blossomed into a brand-new beginning here in Malaysia with #EMGA. ✨

Interestingly, Abdul Rahman is the second child in his family to study abroad. While his brother is in his 3rd year at Manipal, this time the family chose Malaysia 🇲🇾 — and they’ll be right here to support him as he begins this exciting chapter. 📚

A heartfelt thank you to the @registry.utp team, International Visa Office, and International Marketing & Admissions for their smooth guidance and warm welcome in making Abdul Rahman’s first day hassle-free. 🙌

All the best, Abdul Rahman — may your journey be filled with knowledge, joy, and memories that last a lifetime. 🌟

  • Meet Fadly 👋—our humble and easy-going student from Qatar, now starting his Foundation in Engineering at #UTP! ⚙️✨

What makes Fadly’s journey extra special? 🌟 He’s the second sibling in his family to choose Malaysia with Ms. Nisa and #EMGA! His sister Nabila is already here, continuing her bachelor’s degree—now two out of three siblings are studying in Malaysia. 💛 Such a beautiful show of trust in both Malaysia and EMGA.

In just one day, Fadly and his family completed registration, accommodation check-in, and medical (only the X-ray left for tomorrow!). Big thanks to Ms. Ain and the whole UTP team for making it all smooth and easy 🙌

We even squeezed in a quick Malaysian lunch at Bunda Restaurant in Seri Iskandar — everything really is right here at UTP! 🍴✨

All the best, Fadly — may this new chapter be full of knowledge, joy, and happy memories #BeyondTheClassroom. 🌟

Wishing Jasmine an exciting new chapter ahead—may you shine bright in your studies, build lifelong friendships, and embrace every moment of the #MalaysianExperience 🇲🇾💫 We’ll always be here cheering you on 💕

Both are kicking off their academic journeys—ADTP and  Bachelor’s Degree—and they even flew in on the same flight! 🛫 From reporting to medical checkups, everything went smoothly and they’re now all set for student life. 📝🩺

Fun fact: they’re high school buddies with Mustafa, so settling in feels a lot like home already. And yes—they’ve already got their first foodie mission lined up: Mokky’s Pizza at Subang Parade! 🍕😋

Here’s to studies, friendships, and memories #BeyondTheClassroom. 🌟
