Entrance Scholarships and Merit Scholarships Year 2005 for Monash University Malaysia

http://www.monash.edu.my/studying/scholarship.html

Dateline for the March Intake has just passed, may use it as a guide for the July intake, the criterios applied are the same.

This post has been edited by dEviLs: Mar 17 2005, 11:48 AM

the requirement for monash scholarship to australian matriculation is ridiculous...TER 98-99!!!
with that TER, most of the students already gain admission to more pretigious uni in aust...

This post has been edited by darkages: Mar 17 2005, 12:00 PM

Thats why you need 99 for a scholarship. Which means you pay nothing. Most of the top Australian universities (referring to the Group of 8 unis) provide partial scholarships for students with TER of 99 - 99.95, depending on your choice of course. For courses like Medicine or Law, its highly unlikely that you will get a scholarship even with TER99.5 due to the high demand of places amongst the top students.

TER is 'Tertiary Entrace Rank', which basically is where you are placed among everyone who did that exam. A TER of 99 means you are among the top 1% of all students, a TER of 95 would place you in the top 5%. The highest possible TER is 99.95, which means you are among the top 0.05% of students.

IMU scholarship 2005 ( Medicine and Pharmacy )

Hehe, i went to the written test last time.. And the questions are quite tough, SPM level is certainly not enough. A-level will be ok.

Think you guys have missed out... The Star Education Fund Scholarship
www.thestar.com.my

Hi All,

You may or may be aware that almost all associations provide some form of scholarship or student loans. You should really check them out especially those associations that are rich: Hokkien, Canton, Hakka, Teochew and etc.. The requirement for membership for those association are varied but the scholarship requirement tend to be merit based..

Dreamer

there's this scholarship magazine selling rm8 for 1..

for those who r in secondary school can get from 'unit bimbingan dan kaunseling'.

These are more like a Foundation; in BM called "Yayasan".

There is more State Based Foundation and well-established foundation such as KUOK Foundation.

This post has been edited by David83: Jul 6 2005, 07:53 PM

Scholarship magazine ... wow, this is new!

I saw the scholarship mag sold at MPH sometime ago, i dont think they publish this mag regularly hence alot of info are outdated

Then it's kind of useless especially when the submission date for the application is over.

where's JPA & MARA??

Other private companies that give scholarships(those that i know):

Petronas
PNB
Bank Negara
UEM
Yayasan Terengganu(terengganu ppl only,private??)
Yayasan Tenaga Nasional

don't have any links though

dunno whether is this the place to ask....asking on behalf of my sis....

i read the star's scholarship awards, must my sis enrol first to the stated colleges/uni before apply for the scholarship? or can apply the scholarship then only apply for the college/uni?

the dateline for application of the award is august 2nd which is very very near liao....and my sis just got the result of her appeal to local uni (she's STPM) and she failed to get into any of them and now she's oversea only coming back in 2 more days.....anyone can help?

You apply the scholarship first, enrolling into the college dont guarantee you a scholarship

means can apply scholarship first then only enrolling into the college loh?
coz the scholarship stated specifically which college and course...tat's why i'm not sure can apply scholarship first or not.....coz the dateline is nearing.....
thanks!

i oledi googling around n seem kenot find scholar for Aviation school(cadet pilot)..seem MARA stop provide education loan for aviation..does anyone know where to fone Education loan for RM RM190K ..

thanks

petronas has 2 interviews.. one using forcast/trial results, the other one using SPM results. If you've gone to the first interview(trial result) and you didn't manage to get a scholarship, and then you apply a second time, you don't have to go for a second interview. They'll just tell you if you got a spot or not. that's what happened to me

[FONT=Times]This magazine is published annually and will soon be releasing its 2006 issue this coming November. The informations even consists of scholarship criteria, qualification, application process, contact and even the closing deadlines throughout the year. You'll notice that some scholarship deadline states its month only (eg. Deadline: month April) That is because these scholarships are consistenly offered every year, therefore their closing deadlines closes around April of the year, unless they stop offering the scholarship or had made major changes on it. This scholarship magazine has about 200 types of scholarship/loan for undergraduate & postgraduate. And it is a very useful & convenient guide that student should have.

i recomended my scholarship...Powertek Berhad....i'm studying in uniten...i dont know whether it offers scholar at other university...but u can try....the best thing is,i already have a job as an engineer when i graduate later...so dont worry to go to another job interview ...

could you provide more info like Powertek Berhad website?

http://www.powertek.com.my

hope this little information will benefit u all guys... wish best of luck...

This post has been edited by he-sham: Sep 15 2005, 02:39 AM

i expirienced long,boring day waited for my turn on my petronas interview .. i came at 7.30 am...finished at 6pm....becoz my turn is arround 4.30pm.... and the most dissapointing when i knew i have no luck with petronas....

some scholarships require u to be accepted in a college/university first before u can apply them. however it does not guarantee that u'll receive the scholarship. the 2 scholarships that i applied (scholarships of this kind) are samling scholarship and jpa(yes, jpa has one like this too for public uni). i got both but chose samling as the offer was better. fyi, i am doing mechanical engineering first year in universiti teknologi malaysia right after spm (and just in case u might have some thoughts about my race, i am a chinese)

Maybe you guys can try this

Here is the Fujitsu scholarship for post graduates too.

Deadline: 31st Oct 2005.

For ASEAN Pre-U scholarship.

Just a tip that if you have alot of certificates, is good in English and have over 6 As for trials, you'll have a high chance of getting a callback for the testing. The test is super hard so make sure you study for it. It's about 5 times harder than the form 5 stuff. English is very important too and get IQ test questions that are pattern-related.

But you'll have to think thoroughly about going to Singapore. If you are not at least average or above average in your class when in Junior College, you will be sent home and you are required to pay back all they've paid for you plus 10% of that amount.

hi people!

==Yayasan Proton/Proton Scholarship==

info

yes, i know that quite a number of us have something against proton, but it's a scholarship for those who are interested. my friend is a proton scholar and from what i heard from him, this scholarship gives out quite a lot of $$$ per anum . the bond is 1 to 1, meaning if sponsored by proton for 1 year, you get bonded for 1 year, for now that is, as told by my friend. one thing though, when you start to work for proton after you graduate, they kind of pay you with peanuts . but the experience you gain from working in proton, it's worthwhile for a fresh graduate.

ISKL'S IB SCHOLARSHIP for Malaysians.
http://www1.iskl.edu.my/admissions/admissi...etail.php?pid=4

what am i supposed to do if i'm a 2nd batch for NS and i can't attend an interview for a particular scholarship?

anyone experienced this before?

Hi all ...

WTA : Are there any private/gov organization that offer scholarship or loan to medical students ? I'm currently a 3rd year student in IMU, jz completed my first phase study +will continue my clinical years (another 3years) in Australia- Melbourne uni.

I applied for JPA, submitted my form last 2 months. But when i called them...they said "budget 2005 sudah habis la", have to call back next year.

Anyone? Thanks.

If that's the case, it's best if you talk to the organization giving you the interview. I'm sure they'll be able to sort out a solution for you (and I'm sure they have experience in dealing with this sort of problems).



Sorry, I'm not familar with scholarships. Perhaps someone else might be able to help you ...

there aren't many scholarships for those who wants to pursue in arts rite?

im interested in the one academy; but it doesn't give out much scholarships.

yup! just bought the 2006 issue in MPH bookstore last week... pretty cool huh!

i got my copy from the MPH bookstore in USJ Summit complex
here's the publisher's contact: Orchid Media T: 03-7845 8160
hope this helps...

i found my copy in mph bookstore... perhaps you can check it out..
nowadays the college tuition fees are KILLING!!

exactly. i heard that we can only apply for jpa scholarship after we get our spm results. is it true?

Most people did that. Even PTPTN also needs your SPM/STPM actual result. That mostly apply to loans but for admission purpose, some does accept trial result.

Stitchy® w/o stitches

the actual application starts after the release of the SPM results. You don't need to wait till then to do your work, get your certs and whatnot ready, have them certified. Do necessary things so that you don't need to run around preparing your documents after D-DAY.

i would like to ask.. i wan to enrol in taylors IT course using my forecast results next month..but is it possible to pay the fees only after i manage to get a scholarship or study loan?

You have to find this out from the financial department. For the scholarship I'm not so sure.
As for the loan, say PTPTN, my university and also MMU do allow you to defer payment until you get the loan. So i think there is a possibility that Taylors will do that too.
Just called up Taylors, as simple as that.

Different college has difference management style. To get closer look on it, it's better to give them a ring.

Stitchy� w/o stitches

I once emailed Taylor. They told me that I can only apply for PTPTN after Im accepted into the college but Im not pretty sure about the deffering payment. They did told me that, if I failed to get PTPTN loan, they have other available loans for their students as well.

But to confirm, just visit them, email or call them up.

I am in need of some info on applying for a scholarship from The Star, i have just started my degree in Jan and would like to use my Diploma's academic records to apply for a scholarship but the problem arises when i look upon The Star scholarship application form where it states that i must put in my grades for either SPM or STPM. I thought if i were to apply it for my degree all i need is to hand in my Diploma's result, and there has been no column on that form says that i can. I am a liitle lost right now? If anyone has applied it for using their Diploma results kindly tell me how to do it.

i think we should discuss common Scholarship Interview Q/A ..sory if the thread is already there,just suggesting rite now..

not really. from what i gather from website :
AREAS OF STUDY

Undergraduate and Graduate
Degrees in Malaysia
- Bachelor / Master of Engineering, Computer Science or Science related to the media and broadcast technology.
- Bachelor / Master of Arts in Mass Communications, Psychology, Anthropology, Sociology and related courses in Humanities.

Undergraduate
Degrees Overseas

problem is that it's only restricted to Astro subscriber and i'm not

link : http://www.astro.com.my/v5/astrolife/scholarship/

Isn't it restricted? Only course related to media and broadcast technology? What if one wants to mechanical engineering or chemical engineering or biomed or economics?

For more information on the IB, there is also the Official IB site and article in Tinkosong.

I would be glad to answer any further questions.

Sometimes, although you have apply the ptptn, some college or uni won't allowed you to defer payment because of the loan haven't receive or arrived. You could pay first or try and discuss with the Finance Department Head. If this also fails, then I suggest you to forward your voice to the Student Representative Board. MMU once faces this problem, and we actually get our elected person to help us.

i try to get scholarship from the star but from the field i want to study there are just pjcad and alif is avaliable for this schorship..
both of this college is not my cup of tea..
what shall i do??
and i do not have any idea on either alif or pjcad is better...

Anybody applied before the Shell Scholarship?

Ohana Means Family

Correct me if i'm wrong but is Shell scholarship only for msian's of sabah and sarawak origin?

There are two schemes. One for Sabah and Sarawak, the other for Malaysians.

True ... there're two schemes ...

The Power of Three will set us free.

would like to know more about available scholarships for stpm graduates coz most of the scholarships i know of (namely jpa, petronas) seem to be for spm graduates only.

and does anyone have any ideas on singapore scholarships? ok, the 'they're-ridiculously-hard-to-get' remarks aside, i would still like to know more about the options available. haha.

The most common being the ASEAN undergraduate scholarships.
Check the newspapers.

There are scholarships from NTU and NUS Singapore. Suggest you to get a copy of the Malaysia Scholarship Guide 2006 which have other scholarships information for STPM holders.

Is co-curiculum important 2 get a jpa scholarships? what if u get straight A's but co-curiculum no good?

read the syarat-syarat tajaan JPA.

anybody know how to apply for da petronas scholarship??
it's still available??

If I'm not mistaken, they only one application in a year.

yea, is Petronas' out yet? i thought they had one after the forecast and one after SPM results?

lol...petronas out already..need to pay RM 20 via post...

http://esuonline.petronas.com.my/

hope this helps:)

Can a STPM leaver apply too?

not sure...try and check

^The posted URL is only giving information for SPM leavers.

fyi

monash malaysia scholarship has 2
one is entrance and another one is merit

entrance is available starting of the semester,
you apply it will you apply to take any courses in monash

merit is base on your previous year academic performance in monash

in short you need to pay your fees first, until the ceremony they give you back the money.


similarly, sunway do offer scholarship base on your SPM results as well.
it is still open i guess
