INTRODUCTION
HISTORY
INTI was founded in 1986 and had its first enrollment of 37 students in the American University
Program (AUP) at its campus in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur on April 1987. Within a year and a
half, enrollment in AUP exceeded 400 students and INTI College had to move to a larger
premise by April 1989. Student numbers surged again two years later to 900 and in 1991, INTI
moved once more to the now familiar Subang Jaya location where the campus remains to this
day. Today the Subang Jaya campus, with its new 10-storey state-of-the-art building, stands
tall and proud of its historical eminence as it continues forging ahead as a leader in American
Education.
In an effort to further enhance the experience of tertiary education, INTI International University
(f o r m e r l y k n o w n a s I N T I C o l l e g e M a l a y s i a a n d I N T I I n t e r n a t i o n a l U n i v e r s i t y
College in 2006) opened its doors on April 1998 at Bandar Baru Nilai, Negeri Sembilan
with the capacity to accommodate 7,000 students with housing for more than 3,500 students.
INTI International University spans over eighty acres and provides students with academic and
university-life balance with its state of the art teaching, learning and recreational amenities.
By 2001, INTI expanded its wings to Sabah and Sarawak, apart from Nilai. It also acquired INTI
International College Penang and PJ College of Art and Design.
In 2008, INTI firmly established its international presence as it became a member of the
Laureate International Universities network encompassing 26 countries.
Today, the program is known as the American Degree Transfer Program (AUP) and has
become INTI’s flagship program with over 280 universities in USA and Canada accepting our
credits. AUP students continue to wave the INTI flag with their excellence in academics and in
the professional arena worldwide.

AMERICAN EDUCATION SYSTEM
In order for students at INTI to best understand what is involved in acquiring a degree from a
U.S. college or - university, a brief explanation of the American education system is provided
below.
SECONDARY SCHOOL
U.S. secondary schools prepare students for a well-rounded general education. Unlike Malaysia, students
in U.S. secondary schools are not separated into science and arts streams. Students may decide to take
particular science or arts subjects, and the choice is left to them. Students graduate from secondary school
with a general High School Diploma. Students may then go directly into their post-secondary education.
POST-SECONDARY SCHOOL
There are over 4000 post-secondary schools in the U.S. In general, there are three types of post- secondary
institutions: community colleges and technical schools; colleges and universities; and institutes of
technology.
Community colleges and technical schools are two year post-secondary institutions generally tied quite
closely to the community they are located in. Students may choose to attend a community college for two years
before transferring to a four-year college or university to complete their bachelor’s degree. Community colleges
generally award Associate Degrees, a two-year degree which marks the mid-point to getting a bachelor’s
degree. In addition, most will offer short term technical and professional degree courses, night courses for
adults, and special interest courses on specific subjects.
Colleges and universities are post-secondary institutions offering bachelor’s and graduate degrees. It is
important to note that the difference between a college and university is one of structure, not of quality.
Colleges tend to concentrate on undergraduate degrees, do less research, and focus a great deal on liberal
arts and sciences. A university is a conglomeration of several colleges, offers more degrees at the graduate
level, and places more emphasis on research than most colleges. American colleges and universities are
either public (supported primarily by taxpayers) or private (supported by grants, private funding, and/or
tuition fees). In general, public schools tend to be larger and less expensive, while private institutions are
often smaller and much more expensive. Again, the difference between public and private schools is not
a difference in quality.
Institutes of Technology are similar to universities and colleges except that the majority of the degrees that
they offer are technologically oriented (engineering, applied sciences, etc.). Some also offer bachelor degrees
in liberal arts as well as in technological subjects. Institutes of Technology are equivalent in quality to colleges
and universities.
SEMESTER VS QUARTER SYSTEM
In general, institutions of higher education in the United States operate on one of two different systems: the
semester system or the quarter system.
In the semester system, the academic year is usually divided into two 17-week terms and one summer term. A
student will normally enrol l for 12 to 15 credit hours (4 to 5 courses) per semester.
The quarter system divides the academic year into 3 terms of 10 weeks each with an additional term in the
summer. A student in the quarter system will normally enrol l for 15 quarter hours (3 courses) per quarter.
American Degree Transfer Program
5
INTI operates on the semester system. However, a student may still transfer to a university that runs on a
quarter system as a student’s INTI credits will be converted into quarter hour credits (1 semester hour is
equal to 1.5 quarter hours). A student in a semester system will generally earn 30 semester hours per year,
and will have to earn 120 -130 semester hours to graduate, while a student enrolled in a quarter system will
generally earn 45 quarter hours per year and needs to have about 180 quarter hours to graduate.
ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS
In order to receive a degree from a university, a student must take those courses required by the university and
his/her department and have accumulated the correct number of credit hours.
Although each university operates independently and sets its own graduation requirements, students
enrolled in U.S. universities are required to take three types of courses in order to receive their bachelor’s
degree:
1.
General Education: Students of all majors must take courses that provide a foundation in general
education. This includes courses in Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Humanities and Fine Arts. In
addition, students must show that they have fundamental skills in Mathematics and English by taking
basic courses in these subjects. The general education courses will normally be taken during the
first two years at the university.
2.
Pre-Major Courses: These are introductory courses designated by a particular university department
as being compulsory before higher level coursework is taken. Pre-major course requirements will
vary depending on the major.
6
3.
Upper Division Courses: These include higher level courses taken once a student has been admitted
into a particular major. The courses deal with subjects specific to the student’s area of specialization.
Normally, these courses are taken during the third and fourth year at the university.
CREDIT HOURS
A minimum course load per semester for a full-time student in good academic standing is 12 credit hours.
Academic advancement by a student is measured in terms of semester credit hours or, simply, credits. One credit
hour is taken to mean one hour of lecture or two hours of laboratory sessions per week per semester. Credit
hours are earned for courses when the grade obtained is “D” or better. Courses with grades of “C-” and below
may be repeated in the following semester.
GRADING
Grades for a course are not determined by one final examination. Different courses are taken each semester and
grades are determined on the basis of continual assessment. A student’s grade for a particular course, for
example, can be broken down as follows:
20% First mid-term examination
20%
Second mid-term examination
40% Final examination
10%
Quizzes and homework
10% Class participation
American Degree Transfer Program
Under the continuous assessment system, the marks obtained from most of the work done by the students will
count towards his/her grade. As a result, students must be prepared to study throughout the semester and
not leave their work until the last minute. Students should also note that lecturers will expect them to ask
questions in class and engage in discussions on the subjects being taught. Lecturers also grade each student
according to his/her participation.
STUDENT STATUS
In a U.S. college or university, the classification of a student’s class standing is determined by the amount of
coursework completed. The following is a method of classification:
Year in College
First Year
Second Year
Third Year
Fourth Year
Class Standing
Freshman
Sophomore
Junior
Senior
Credit Hours Earned
0 - 30
31 - 60
61 - 90
Above 90
However, the classification procedure varies for different U.S. colleges and universities. Students can refer to
the catalogs of the U.S. colleges and universities for further details.
CREDIT TRANSFER TO THE U.S.
7
In the U.S., it is common for a student to transfer the credit hours earned from one college or university
to another. Similarly, students enrolled in the American Degree Transfer Program (AUP) at INTI can also
apply to transfer their credit hours earned from INTI to accredited U.S. colleges and universities. Universities
require students to obtain 30-40 credit hours in residence in order to graduate with a bachelor’s degree
from that university.
However, it is the prerogative of these colleges and universities to decide whether a particular student or
the number of courses the student has taken at his/her original college is to be accepted for transfer.
Normally, U.S. colleges and universities require a transfer student to have at least 2.00 Cumulative Grade Point
Average (CGPA), which is a “C” average, and a minimum TOEFL score of 500/173/68 (paper based/ computer
based/internet based). Because of the varied requirements of different colleges and universities, it is most
important that the student should choose courses in the General Education Requirements, Lower and Upper
Division core courses of the student’s major very carefully. This is to avoid any loss of time and money due to
non-transferability of the courses taken earlier.
Since all U.S. colleges and universities are independent, every university has its own courses a n d
requirements. In order to transfer a maximum number of credit hours, it is advisable for the student to
decide on his/her area(s) of concentration during the first semester. During the second semester, the
student should conduct research work at the University Placement Office and consult the Head of
Program and Course Advisors. After that, he/she should shortlist at least 3 U.S. colleges and universities
which he/she would like to apply to and then choose the courses to study at INTI accordingly.
American Degree Transfer Program
Very often, a U.S. college or university admits a student on the basis of its specific requirements, the number of
places available, and the major the student has applied for. The student should also bear in mind that a state
college or university may have a quota for foreign students.
Therefore, in order to maximize the chances of being accepted by U.S. colleges and universities, the
student is advised to apply to at least three U.S. institutions which offer his/her area of study. Undoubtedly,
students who apply to any of the U.S. colleges and universities which have a link with INTI have a greater
chance of being admitted.
ADVANCED STANDING
Students enrolling for AUP may have STPM, A- Level qualifications or other certificates of postsecondary work in addition to SPM or its equivalent. In certain cases, students may use the results from these
examinations to receive advanced credit from a university when they transfer. Because no direct
equivalence to these examinations exists in the United States, each university will set its own policy on the
granting of advanced credit. Students who hold one of these qualifications should consult the University
Placement Office to find out the respective universities’ policy on granting advanced credit.
TEST OF ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE (TOEFL)
8
The TOEFL score requirements vary for different U.S. colleges and universities. On an average, a minimum
score of 520/173 is required. However, some colleges and universities require 550/213/80 or higher.
A high score would enhance the student’s chance of being accepted.
SPM/’O’ LEVEL/STPM/’A’ LEVEL/UEC RESULTS
Students holding non-U.S. high school diplomas should enclose certified official SPM/UEC/O-Level results
together with the application forms to the chosen U.S. colleges and universities. In addition, students holding any
higher qualifications such as STPM/A-Levels or other post-secondary coursework should include certified copies of
the results with their application.
INTI TRANSCRIPTS
Students intending to transfer their credit hours must complete the UP-3 form requesting that INTI send
their official transcripts to the colleges and universities indicated.
It order to be eligible to apply for admission as a transfer student to a U.S. college or university, an INTI
student should normally have 2 to 3 semesters of coursework at INTI (24-30 credit hours) and a CGPA
of at least 2.00, which is the equivalent of a “C” grade. A high CGPA would enhance the student’s chance
of being accepted.
FINANCIAL CAPABILITY
In order to obtain his/her I-20 form and international student visa, the student is required to show proof of
his/her financial capability for the entire period of his/her study in the U.S. Proof may be in the form of bank
statements, fixed deposits, income tax statements, etc.
American Degree Transfer Program
An I-20 is a document issued by the International Office of a U.S. college or university to enable an
international student to obtain his/her student visa.
THE SAT REASONING TEST
The SAT is not required by many of the U.S. colleges or universities if a student is applying for transfer
admission. However, for some U.S. colleges and universities, the SAT is essential for applying to certain
majors and it is usually required for financial aid applications. Information on SAT requirements may be
obtained from the college and university catalogs.
UNIVERSITY PLACEMENT SERVICES
INTI will provide maximum assistance to students seeking admission to their desired U.S. colleges and
universities to complete their baccalaureate degrees.
University Placement Office
The department provides information on credit transfer, study plans and application procedures to students
who wish to transfer to U.S. colleges and universities.
Course Advisors assist students in choosing courses, major, university and in planning for their future
abroad. They also organize pre-departure orientation for students. The department has over 700 catalogs,
brochures, prospectuses as well as study plans for particular majors from different U.S. universities and
colleges; video tapes of U.S. colleges and universities; references and college explorer computer software
which may be used by all students.
The department regularly organizes special seminars and workshops on credit transfer, university application
procedures and visa application.
Officers from MACEE, the U.S. Embassy and representatives from various U.S. colleges and universities
are regularly invited to address students on the current trends in education in the U.S. Talks by INTI alumni
from the U.S. are also held to help students understand American culture and their way of life.
Students who are continue their studies overseas may also seek assistance for their travel arrangements from
INTI’s official travel agency. Seminars are also conducted to enlighten students on the services available.

circumstances, the students may appeal in writing to the Vice-President for Academic
Affairs or Academic Dean, through the Director for the Center for American Education or
Head, for approval to repeat the course. The grade received in the last attempt will be
used to compute the CGPA. The letter “R” will appear on the transcript, beside the most
recent grade.
Instructors are responsible for the evaluation of an individual student’s academic performance and the
assignment of grades.
American Degree Transfer Program
GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA)
The semester GPA is calculated by multiplying the credit hours for each course by the numerical value of
the grade points of the grades received to determine the total credit points earned. The total number of
credit points is then divided by the total number of credit hours completed. The following example
illustrates the computation of a semester’s GPA:

SOC 103 SOCIOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES (3)
The student’s exposure to sociology is arranged in a series of ever more comprehensive circles of knowledge
about society. The course begins with a series of discussions on the fundamentals of social life, out of which
larger structure and processes are forged. This is followed by an examination of a number of the basic ways
in which rank and reward stratification and various other inequalities develop in society. It then turns to a number
of the main institutions in which all members of society are involved in one way or another at some time in
their lives. Finally, attention is given to a variety of processes by which the previously examined ingredients
of social life change over time. Topics to be discussed include norms, status, role, social stratification,
industrialization, urbanization and bureaucratization.
