Veritas University College launches the Pandemic Education Fund to help students

With the pandemic sweeping the globe over the past year, we had to face challenges as novel as the virus itself. Covid-19 was not only devastating to those infected but its overreaching invisible hand affected every facet of life, not sparing a single household, as we brace ourselves for life in the new normal.

In recognising the continued hardship faced by the nation, Veritas University College established the Veritas Pandemic Education Fund to drive its founding ethos; enhancing access to quality education to ALL Malaysians, while also minimising the disruption caused by the pandemic on tertiary education.

UNESCO’s Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) remains an integral element in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4 on Quality Education, said Veritas University College’s director Raja Singham.

“I am a firm advocate of the SDGs. I have always believed that education is a means out of poverty. That was our motivation to spend millions on various Education Initiatives like SPMflix, Project Deep and Project Entrepreneur.

“In that same spirit, the Veritas Pandemic Education Fund was established to give all Malaysians an affordable pathway to further their education after SPM. I want to ensure that everyone has equitable access to quality education,” added Raja, who is also the Chairman of the BAC Education Group.

The Foundation in Arts tuition fee will be significantly reduced to RM5,000 under the Veritas Pandemic Education Fund, making it probably the best value foundation programme in the nation.

But the true distinction of this initiative is that students will not be bonded or required to further their higher education at Veritas in order to enjoy the low fees, which Veritas is calling ZERO BOND.

Students enrolling for the Foundation at Veritas will also get access to the best online resources and have the opportunity to learn from a highly experienced faculty. With flexible study modes available due to its new hybrid campus, students can learn anywhere, anytime.

Upon completing the Foundation of Arts, students will have a multitude of options to pursue further undergraduate studies in; Accounting & Finance, Business, Digital Transformation, Branding & Digital Marketing, Information Technology, Psychology and more. 100% of the pre-u fees (RM 5,000) will be refunded to those who choose to pursue any undergraduate degree with Veritas and their total fee for the 3-year degree will only be RM24,700.
