Hi,
I have offered a scholarship from Monash University Sunway Campus. It comprises tuition fee waiver and stipend. The average monthly stipend is 2200 RM. Is that enough for living of one person. Thanks.

It is the standard requirement for overseas students to have about Rm 1350 available to support themselves per month (i.e. circa USD5.5k per annum), so your award is satisfactory. Your standard of living will depend on how much you decide to spend on accommodation.

Apart from 1350RM, what type of accommodation is possible for the remained stipend ( stipend would be between 2000 and 2200RM)

The RM1350 is for everything, including low class accommodation (possibly flat or room sharing). T
To check out the cost of flat sharing in the areas in which you need to be based, take a look at www.ibilik.my (Selangor/Sunway) and the Housing section above.
