USM or Universiti Sains Malaysia is one of the more established universities in Malaysia.This public university has its main campus in Penang and two other branch campuses in mainland Penang and in Kelantan which is on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Not too long ago, it was in the limelight for a student admission fiasco. Although it only had 3,599 openings for students, the university mistakenly uploaded the names of some 8000 odds applicants who had met the minimum criteria and instructed them to confirm their places. For this blunder, USM deputy vice-chancellor (Academic and International Affairs) Prof Ahmad Shukri Mustapa Kamal apologised unreservedly, explaining that USM only realised their mistake some 24 hours after the names of the students were put up at the website.
