IMU, one or two full/partial scholarships.

Unlikely to have any other possible ways to get sponsorship for medicine other than that.

imu requires parents income to be lower than 30k per annum if not wrong. what about tuition grants or study loans?

Fee waivers are given in some universities but I am not sure if it is given to medical students. Even if it is given, it would usually be just a few thousand bucks, hardly any form of assistance. It is a token for your hard work, that's all.

Do not take study loans because it is foolish to do so. you'll end up with a million dollar debt when you are ready to practise. That is of course if you study in the UK or Australia.

Cheaper alternatives are India and Russia, however it is still not advisable to take a loan to study there. How long would it take to pay off RM100k plus interest with the current salary of fresh doctors?

hmm.... ok then.. thanks for the advice. But, is it worth going to get PTPTN ?

http://malaysia-scholarship.net try this

Ya, why not. Somebody told me it is much cheaper to study medicine in Indonesia, but make sure their courses are approved by LAN, JPA ....

not sure whether this has been posted or not, the star education fund
the Star edu fund

hi. i have a question regarding the stars edu scholarship. according to yesterday's newspaper,completed application must reach the star by march 3 2007. i thought the closing date is 2 weeks after the release of spm result?

the JPA loan which you had mentioned, is for those who are waiting for their SPM results or for those who are currently doing their studies ?

ya its 2 weeks time after spm result out, it cant be march 3 coz the edu fund is based on our spm result rite

Just a minor correction..UiTM also has a degree program in actuarial science..i'm in their program

does anybody knw about the new JPA scholarships for STPM one?
