Hi all, need help!

My language school wants to hold my passport. I’m really uncomfortable with that. They keep having hidden cost. For example airport visa help is MYR 300. Visa Cancellation MYR 500.

I want to switch out of this arrangement and change to a public school.

Question: Is it legally right to hold someone Passport to control me?

Question: Could the school refused to provide me clearance to switch school?

I called EMGC, they just ask me to sort it out myself

  When I looked into language schools in July the more reputable ones said they weren’t doing visa applications. One lady told me there were too many issues for language school so they had stopped. I also got some shady answers from others so I decided against it. I will say that my school charges visa help, and will eventually need to hold my passport for getting the student visa. But again my experience with language schools wasn’t good, I think your instinct to switch is correct. Good luck!
