Enrolment is the process of formally joining the University and becoming a Heriot-Watt student. You agree to abide by the rules of the University and to pay any fees, and we ask you to confirm that we have your correct details.

Enrolment will open in April and  can be done through the Student Self Service.

Being a student comes with a lot of financial obligations, and it is important that you are aware of these before you start your studies with us.

 

Tuition fees will most likely be the biggest financial obligation you have, and you should make sure you understand how and when to pay these before you start with us.

 

There may also be Scholarships and Bursaries available to you, which can give you some additional support and funding during your university life.

 

If something unexpected happens to you during your studies which means you come into financial difficulties, the University may be able to support you during this time.

 

To understand your fees statement, please refer to our fees and payment guide.

Are you planning on staying in off-campus student accommodation, or will you be commuting to your campus? Whatever you choose, you need to make sure you have all the right information.

 

We offer off-campus student accommodation in Putrajaya and Cyberjaya

 

If you have questions about on-campus accommodation, you can email Myaccommodation@hw.ac.uk

 

If you are intending to commute to your campus, you should plan how you are going to get there and how long it may take. Also consider how often you may be on campus and how long will spend travelling every day/week. Maps and directions to Heriot-Watt University Malaysia, Putrajaya
