hi guys,
currently I'm having my last semester of my master degree and my dissertation is on going till next year end of Feb.
I'd like to apply this however seem like the system is already shutdown for 1 month.
Is the application ended or they will resume back next year. As their website mentioned: "(a) Permohonan dibuka sepanjang tahun mulai 1 Disember 2010 hingga tahun 2015."
not too sure whether the application will be closed at end of year 2015 or beginning of year 2015.
anyone has any idea?

btw, is that true that
"MyBrain15 (MyMaster and MyPhD) will not cover the fees that you have paid prior to your successful scholarship application. For example, if your MyMaster or MyPhD scholarship application is approved successfully this semester, you will not be able to claim back the fees you have paid using your own money for the previous semester(s)."

True to a certain extent and it also depends on the coverage period.

If you applied in your first semester and the coverage period backdates to the day when you paid your fees, then you can claim for reimbursement.

If you only applied starting from the second semester, then of course the coverage period will only start from the second semester onwards. In this case, you can claim back what you have paid for the second semester, not the first semester.

Then is too bad for me as I going to complete my dissertation by next month but now only applied. So i think my chances to get mybrain approve is very very low cry.gif
But wondering how those MBA students get ready their proposal during first semester while most of them are still new and don't even have any idea on their research topic, if they want to apply mybrain15 during first semester. hmm.gif
That's happened to me nearly 3rd semester only know what topic should go on after attended the research method class.

just got news from my postgraduate office that Mybrains, starting this term is gonna be for Full Time MBA/PHD students only which is a total letdown. Those working and wanting to pursure MBA part time can no longer qualify  vmad.gif

few of my classmates very disappointed with this decision. I bet many will complain to the government for this sudden change  ranting.gif

what a disappointing news. how many ppl can afford to do full time study without working?
if they do, they won't bother to apply mybrain scholarship la... mega_shok.gif

they don't even have enough budget for existing education department. So don't think they have budget for Mybrain anymore. If you working adult then probably u can get sponsorship from your company. A lot of companies offered but of cos with condition la.
good luck

I called and the staff told me that my academic result CGPA is not meet their requirement which is at least 3.0

The question is when I applied for it before May 2015, I remembered I saw the requirements stated in their website is CGPA 2.75

How could they change the rules without notice and make applicants failed to get the money? Anyone has same experience as me?

I remember they didnt check my CGPA, even they check I think I also not qualify as mine was 2.6x something.
Somehow they approved. maybe they have tighten the rules. hmm.gif

Again, if I want to make an appeal or complaint to my case, does anyone have the contact details such as email address or contact number of our head of Kementerian Pendidikan Tinggi ? Thanks.

I think u better make a trip to putrajaya HQ. so u can directly ask them. trust me, call and email will not get single response.
I personally went there twice just to submit my application. First round missed out some document verification. The 2nd round almost cant make it due to lunch time. But lucky enough one Malay lady still accepted my application.

mybrain is a government programme and students have to run everything from head to toe by themself. university won't help much.
