The Swinburne Virtual Application Day happening, from Aug 20 to 22, will be conducted via Zoom meeting, from 10am to 7pm daily. The Swinburne Application Day, on the other hand, will be held on campus at the Swinburne’s Multi-Purpose Hall (MPH) on Aug 22 from 10am to 3pm.

The programme is targeting SPM, STPM, O-Level, A-Level, and UEC school-leavers and the Application Day events provide opportunity for prospective students to speak to the university’s representatives either virtually or face-to-face.
“Students would be counselled directly by Swinburne’s experienced education counsellors and academic staff from the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Science; Faculty of Business, Design and Arts; and School of Foundation Studies so they are better informed about the courses offered at the university.
In addition, students can also enquire about their study options; teaching and learning facilities; scholarships and other types of financial assistance; professional recognitions; employment opportunities; application process; and other related information.
Meanwhile, eligible students who attend the on-campus Application Day can apply on the spot and receive their Letter of Offer on the same day.
