Testimonial

Testimoni DIA  dim testimoni I would describe my 3 years Diploma journey at UniKL as a ​‘short trip but memorable and profound’​ experience. As a student, it was almost impossible to learn everything and being 100% ready to work in the industry because what you need is not everything but instead, you just need the right thing to prepare you for the real world. I believe UniKL has given me the right package to spark my journey into the creative industry. What makes UniKL profound is not just the infrastructure and system, but most importantly is the PEOPLE. My peers and lecturers are the same-minded people in a way that we inspire each other to become a better person, and in my case, a better artist. The relationship between us doesn’t stop after graduation, it continues to contribute and help the industry to become stronger either in one way or another. On another note, MARA has been great in providing a full scholarship ONLY if you can achieve the targeted CGPA, which I think is a fair and square deal.     dim testimoni
