Great Upsurge in the May Intake

Expect to see more unfamiliar faces on campus this year as TAR College registered an upsurge in the number of new students in the May 2006 Intake. The number of students recruited exceeded the initial projection, with an increase of 18% compared to the May 2005 Intake. At the KL Main Campus, the Diploma and Certificate courses in both Hotel Management and Tourism reached the maximum capacity in student number even though it was the first time the courses were conducted in the Main Campus.

This impressive intake speaks much of our trademark “Quality and Affordable Education” which continues to attract many school leavers to make TAR College the College of choice. In addition, the other pull factor can be attributed to the College’s effort in making sure that its programme curricula are constantly being updated to reflect the current and emerging expectations of the job market. This year, TAR College introduced two new Diploma courses: Diploma in Business Studies (Logistics and Supply Chain Management) and Diploma in Sport and Exercise Science. Four other new courses are the Advanced Diploma in Business Studies (International Business), Advanced Diploma in Fashion Design, Advanced Diploma in Multimedia Design and Certificate in Fashion Design.

Not just more students, but more high achievers!

In tandem with the increase in enrolment, the number of scholarship holders has also reached an all-time high with 1,715 recipients for the TAR College Merit Scholarship and 19 recipients for the Star Education Fund Scholarship. When

interviewed, Ng Loon Ping, a scholarship holder with 12As in his SPM, said: “While I was still in secondary school, I was already impressed with what TAR College has to offer. Once I got my SPM results, I applied to TAR College and was offered a scholarship automatically. I chose TAR College for its beautiful campus with lush greenery and comprehensive facilities such as the Sports Complex, Clubhouse, College Hall and the Olympic-sized swimming pool. Also, the College is known for producing graduates who went on to become prominent and successful individuals.”

With such confidence in the quality of its education, TAR College can look forward to attract many more high achievers in the years to come.

Prospective students throng the Open Day to find out more about the College courses.
