Besides providing our residents a safe, conducive and comfortable abode, we are also committed to deliver a holistic living experience to all residents through our comprehensive R!SE Residential Living Programme - a structured programme curated for residents, nurturing a Relevant, Inclusive, Supportive, and Engaged community that builds belonging, develops compassionate leaders, encourages growth, and empowers residents to succeed personally and academically.
This unique support aims to help our residents cope with the changes in their new living and learning environment by focusing on these 4 key psychosocial pillars:
Positive physical well-being helps residents adapt and excel in new settings. We are dedicated to creating a welcoming environment that feels like home.
Positive mental and emotional health is vital for academic and personal growth. We focus on providing preventive care and a supportive system to help residents manage stress and build emotional resilience.
Social wellness involves building healthy relationships with fellow residents. At Taylor’s Residence, we help residents cultivate a sense of belonging, practice social inclusion, and live harmoniously by respecting and appreciating diverse customs and cultures.
We support residents in expanding their knowledge, developing critical thinking, strengthening essential study skills, and encouraging learning beyond the classroom for academic and future success.
To begin, simply submit an enquiry to receive your application form. Once we’ve reviewed your request, Taylor’s Hostel Management will get in touch to confirm room availability. Please note that submitting an application does not guarantee the exact room type or location, as all bookings are subject to availability. If you’re offered a room and decide to accept it, a MYR 500 non-refundable application fee and a MYR 3,000 deposit will be required to secure your spot. We encourage early confirmation to increase the chances of getting your preferred option.
To ensure a smooth check-in process, the full balance should be paid at least 21 days before your check-in date.
Rental is paid every six (6) months and is due before the 1st day of the next 6-month cycle. This helps us keep your tenancy running without interruption.
We understand that plans can change. If you need to cancel, please submit a letter of cancellation along with any relevant documents at least one (1) month before your programme starts. This will allow Taylor’s Hostel Management to review and process your request accordingly.
All new residents are required to sign a one-year (12-month) tenancy agreement initially. After completing this period, you may renew your tenancy for a minimum of 6 months, subject to availability and management approval. If you have a valid reason and the proper documentation, shorter rental durations may be considered—we’re here to support your unique needs where possible.
Early check-out is strongly discouraged. Please note that doing so will result in the forfeiture of your deposit and any prepaid rent. We recommend discussing your situation with us if you're facing difficulties and we're happy to help explore your options.
Yes, the MYR 3,000 (USD 750) deposit is refundable if:
After you check out, we’ll conduct a final inspection of your room/unit. If there are no damages, your deposit will be processed and returned within 21 working days. We aim to make this process as efficient as possible.
Your safety is our priority. All hostel locations are within gated communities and monitored by 24-hour security services with CCTV surveillance, so you can rest easy.
Yes! You’ll find a variety of restaurants, cafés, and fast food outlets in Syopz Mall and around campus. Online food delivery services are also widely available—convenience at your doorstep.
Yes. A coin-operated laundromat is available at Syopz Mall (LG2-11).
Yes, but with some guidelines for safety and cleanliness:
Please note: Cooking is strictly prohibited inside rooms.
Yes. All residents can access the campus WiFi network, which is optimised for educational use.
We understand how important this is. You may indicate your roommate preferences in the application form or via email. While we cannot guarantee placements, we’ll do our best to accommodate your request based on availability and on a first-come, first-served basis.
You may share your preferences in your application or via email. While placement cannot be guaranteed, we’ll make every effort to match your request.
To ensure a safe and respectful living environment, all residents are expected to follow the House Rules. These include showing respect for different cultures, religions, and lifestyles. Activities such as smoking, gambling, vandalism, or possession of illegal substances are strictly prohibited and may result in penalties or eviction. A full guide will be provided in your Student Handbook during check-in.
To promote a healthier living environment, we introduced prepaid air conditioning after observing that many rooms were left with air conditioners running even when unoccupied. This led to damp conditions and mold growth. By using air conditioning more mindfully, we can protect your health and preserve the living environment for everyone.
Yes! Each resident receives 180 complimentary hours of air conditioning. If you use more than this, you can easily top up to continue enjoying the service. We encourage you to also use ceiling fans to stay comfortable while conserving energy.
Refunds are available for unused top-up hours only. Complimentary hours are non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for cash.
Top-ups are available in MYR 10, MYR 20, and MYR 50. As a guide, MYR 10 gives you approximately 25 hours of air conditioning usage.
You can top up at the Prepaid Kiosk near U Lounge (next to the PopBox). Just bring your Resident ID card and exact change for the top-up amount.
Students from around the world, including Michelle from Indonesia, Aliyia from Sabah, and Sanjana from Canada, describe Taylor’s Residences as a place that makes settling into a new environment easier and more comfortable.
With everything within walking distance, daily life becomes more convenient, especially for those adjusting to a new city. Residence tours and support systems help students get familiar with the campus and surroundings early, so they feel more confident navigating their new routine.
Beyond convenience, the environment supports both study and well-being. Spaces like U Garden offer a calm setting to focus, while living in an international community allows students to connect with people from different cultures and backgrounds.
Through residence programmes, student-led initiatives, and regular support from staff, students develop life skills, build meaningful connections, and feel supported throughout their journey — making it a place many come to call their second home.
