Join the Malaysia Study Fair Spring 2026

The Malaysia Study Support Center, operated by Global Hub Japan Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya, Tokyo; CEO: Takashi Saito), is set to hold the Spring 2026 Malaysia Study Fair in three major cities: Fukuoka on March 15, Osaka on March 20, and Tokyo on March 22. This event is an invaluable resource for students considering studying in Malaysia, as it will feature representatives from leading Malaysian universities and language schools.

A Unique Opportunity to Connect

Attendees will have the chance to obtain the latest admission information and scholarship options while discussing living conditions in Malaysia directly with the representatives. Additionally, there will be personal accounts of studying abroad from Malaysian graduates as well as seminars on IELTS preparation. This comprehensive program is designed to help not only students but also parents to prepare confidently for their study abroad journey.

According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, the number of Japanese students entering the U.S. on student visas has significantly decreased, raising concerns about safety and rising costs in Western countries. The event serves as a remedy to this growing unease, highlighting the potential savings of up to 10 million yen for students considering Malaysia as a study destination compared to direct entry into U.S. universities.

American Degree Transfer Program (ADTP)

Of particular interest is the American Degree Transfer Program (ADTP), designed for students aiming to transfer to prestigious U.S. institutions thereafter. Using Malaysia as a stepping stone, participants can significantly reduce their study abroad costs, making it an increasingly attractive option.

Last year, the number of applicants interested in this program increased by 140%, demonstrating the rising trend of Malaysian study as a gateway to higher education abroad.

This is the sixth iteration of the Malaysia Study Fair, which has attracted approximately 2,000 high school students and parents over the years. The event is free of charge, but prior registration is required to accommodate all guests.
