Choosing Sunway’s American Degree Transfer Program (ADTP) is the first step towards a recognized American degree. Students spend their freshman and sophomore years in Sunway before transferring credits to top-tier universities in the US for their final two years where they will specialize in their chosen field.

Students also have the flexibility to opt for transfer options to reputable universities in Canada, the U.K., Australia and New Zealand. Students are able to complete selected majors domestically by transferring to Sunway’s home grown programs and also to Monash University, Sunway campus.

The ADTP in Sunway prepares students for life in the US. Apart from adapting to the American education system, students in the ADTP are provided with a holistic and well-balanced curriculum. The interactive and handson activities within the program allow students to learn beyond their chosen specialization. This environment creates interesting and articulate graduates who are well-rounded critical thinkers. We encourage you to ask questions!

Being well-rounded also means participation in healthy extra-curricular pursuits. ADTP students in Sunway not only chase grades, but they also commit themselves to learning and character building outside of classes. ADTP has a very active Student Committee which partakes in community services, social and sporting events and field trips; for example the annual Fourth of July celebration, Orientation Night, Halloween cum prom night and Inter- Program Sports Competition.

The ADTP is a close-knit family of dedicated lecturers and students. Lecturers not only know students by name and offer academic guidance, but they also keep close tabs on students’ progress. The teaching staff in Sunway have also developed a user-friendly system on the institution’s intranet which aids in university placement. This makes it convenient for students to decide on their transfer options in the US.
