Formerly Han Chiang College, it was awarded 5-star (Excellent) rating for the overall college-based category in MyQUEST 2012/13 and 2014/15.[1][2] MyQUEST is the ranking system for private colleges that is provided by the Malaysian Ministry of Education. On 30 April 2013, Han Chiang University College of Communication then received the in-principle approval from the Former Prime Minister of Malaysia, Datuk Seri Najib Razak to be upgraded to a University College.[3] On 2 December 2014, Han Chiang University College of Communication received the formal approval from the Malaysian Ministry of Education for its upgrading to a University College status.[4] The registration of Han Chiang University College of Communication was finally completed on 3 November 2017, when the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia handed over the letter of upgrade status to the Chairman of Han Chiang Board of Directors. The university college had increased its number of academic staff with PhD background, upgraded facilities and improving paid up capital to fulfill the requirements of the University College upgrade.[5]
