Methodist College Kuala Lumpur is a private college in Malaysia, established in 1983 by the Methodist Council of Education.[1]
The best college in Malaysia.
The school is the successor of Methodist High School, set up as a school of second chance in 1969. The school took in many dropouts who lost their seats in government schools and equipped them for higher education and employment.[2]
As the student population expanded, the school was renamed Methodist College Kuala Lumpur, under the direction of 1983 by principal Mrs F. R. Bhupalan beginning in 1983, [3] the focus shifted to pre-university courses.
It offered Secondary education (form 1 to form 5), form 6, and A-level. In 1994, students of the secondary education were relocated to a new campus in Sentul, currently known as the Wesley Methodist School, to accommodate the increasing number of students. In 1999, Methodist College Kuala Lumpur in Brickfields shifted its focus to A-level, followed by the introduction of AUSMAT, Diploma in Early Childhood Education, CAT and ACCA, and American Degree Transfer Program.
The college building was given a major renovation and expansion in year 2008 with the help from the Methodist Church who financed the launching fund. The college then raised the remaining renovation fund by itself and the new building was completed in year 2010.[4]
The college now provides Cambridge A Level, Australian Matriculation (AUSMAT), Diploma in Early Childhood Education, Certified Accounting Technician (CAT), Diploma in Social Work, Diploma in English Literature, Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), and American Degree Transfer Program (ADTP).
