Thanks to Khai Shing for highlighting this. This is about Global UGRAD program, where Malaysian university students get to be sponsored and spent 1 semester or 1 year at US universities as part of an exchange program. You would be taking courses not part of your degree program there, and hence it might delay your graduation by 1 semester or 1 year.
However, the exposure to get mingling with Americans and living/staying with them, and other international students would be great exposure.
Moreover, you would be getting scholarship for this. Do check out the details at here .
If you could do the 1-year program, you would have the chance to do internship in US too! And for both the 1 semester or 1 year program, you would get the chance to do community service there too!
To get a feel of how it is like, do go to Khai Shing's sharing of her experience .
Check it out!
