Hi Mr azarimy, I'm currently a KPM scholar and going to apply for JPA scholarship and i a few question to ask.

1) If I have finish my part 1 in UK, can I continue JPA scholarship for part 2 in UK?

2) After i've finish part 1, I have to comeback to Malaysia for the 6 months practical?

3) According to LAM, they only recognise part 2 for UCL but not for part 1, but UCL is in the list for JPA application, if that so I have to return to Malaysia after my part 1 in order to take LAM part 1 exam?

Hopefully you can reply asap, Thank you smile.gif

But as far as i know from the JPA officers, they said that right after our studies, we must come back Malaysia. If that so that means I must complete the practical in Malaysia? Also, if its like that, I cant continue straight at UCL from part 1 to part 2 but have to reapply after that right? That means i need to take LAM part 1 exam?

Do i receive the portfolio only if i got to interview or not?
Also, after i submitted my application, when will i get the task?
What should i include my portfolio? Can i prepare now even i dont have the task?
Please reply ASAP as i'm going to apply soon, thanks.

Hi sir, I'm currently interested to study architecture in Singapore especially Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) and NUS but I could not find any information about the pathway to be an architect in Singapore.

Does Sir knows any info about the pathway?

Also, what is their education requirement to enter the universities? I just finish A level, do they accept it?

perhaps this link will help you:

http://www.boa.gov.sg/education.html

generally they inherited the 3+2 format that ARB (UK) uses, which makes theirs similar to ours. in the link, SUTD is not listed as a recognized programme, but NUS is. so i guess u should focus on NUS to be on the safe side. and yes, u can use A-levels to apply there. in fact, they also accept STPM which is way cheaper than A-levels. but i see that u've completed ur A-levels, so no point looking back on that.

if ur intention is to be an architect in singapore, u should know that u dont need to study there to be one. about 30% of UTM graduates have ended up working in singapore at one point or another, and many of those actually stayed and settled down there.

if u still want to study there but want to cut down the cost a bit, u should consider studying locally in malaysia for part 1, then continue ur masters there (or vice versa).

Alright, thank you so much sir
