I'll like to hear more opinions.
*I'm planning to take computer & electronic at Nottingham

if i apply for course out of the place i'm staying ..wats the chance to get in ....
i'm staying in penang .and want to apply for utar in kl

pls reply me..
i wan to study in kl ...
let me noe the chances of getting it...pls anyone

I thought UTAR will provide scholarship itself, not sure though, have to ask the students currently studying at there.
However, my friend was able to get full scholar with 9As in spm for material engineering at KTAR last year.

oh...
i'm a science student but i wan to do business management majoring marketing in utar ..or any whr else...but not in penang ..coz my gf in kl

Ya Ya, The Star always give those scholarship to financially deserving students. I am quite shocked that one of my friend who obtained 6 As in SPM was able to get the scholarship.

Frankly, if ur SPM (STPM) result is really good (eg.10 A1 or more), no need to apply for Star scholarship!! The college that u entered will automatically give u tuition fee waiver. In addition, u can apply other scholarship like Hong Leong, American Tabacco. Thats what I do !!

i'm realli financially deserving student ..
i'm good in coco = penang dragon boat state player ( can be recomended by some Mp's and khor soo khon), was a school football player(until form 3), head of sports club.......................................................................

If u r really a financially needy student, u can show ur parents income form to The Star Scholarship foundation as evidence that u really need this scholarship to proceed ur study, this will increase ur chances to get the scholarship.

The friends I mention who got 6As is sitting SPM 2001, nowadays the emerge of more "top students", the competition is Keen in applying scholarship.
A lot of colleges like Inti & Taylor has amend their internally assessed scholarship requirement accordingly. (Certainly, stricter requirement, tht means more A1 or As is required)

Anyway, u can PM those The Star scholarship recipients. Unfortunately, I m not one of them.

tq for the info ..anymore from nayoe pls...

Qualified.. wher u come from they dun bother also, so long ur malaysian.. Im ex-recipient of the star's scholarship from sban study at penang, much more further rite..??

ERm, i doubt those coco help much in applying private scholarship.. i has lot coco achievements up to national n international level, even exchange programme to oversea, yet cant get those good good scholarship.. it just showing ur not a book worm, thats all..

Anyhow, the star is easier to get the scholarship.. good luck in ur application..

hmm..5-6As cant apply scholarship for UTAR.. u get ur result oledi?

hmm..not bad ..sunds good man ...i tink i wil apply
howmany A's u got in SPm ??

i am studying at UTAR.. minimum requirement is 7As... can check it at utar website.

9 A1................

The Star did mention at the launch of the fund, in conjunction with their fair at klcc, that preference would be given to those who are not scholarship hunting i.e. applying for scholarships all over the place.

Don't know how they are going to find out whether one had applied elsewhere or not.

U only took 9 subjects, right??

Ur result is good , better than mine, in terms of quality...
Quantity, I beat u

Frankly,UTAR scholarship not too difficult to get, but its tough to maintain, if Im not wrong, u have to maintain a very high CGPA to maintain the scholarship. Its like CPA 3.9(can't remember correctly) in degree study ....otherwise, they will withdraw it.

Unless u are saiding their pre-U course, 8-9 A's lo, 75%-100% tuition fee waiver. (not sure whetner got revised or not)

UTAR is private university which have to at least make some profit, while TARC is half sponsored by government. UTAR is not generous in giving scholarship like TARC. TARC haven't been revised its scholarship requirement for like 20 years, while other college has revised their internal scholarship requirement quite frequently.


They are lying, they can't find out, please!!
U should apply more than one scholarship, regardless what result u have.

u cant ender degree wif SPM result.. pls la.. so u must study de foundation n can get scholarship wif ur spm result..

and if you get good results from foundation, you can use it to apply for a degree scholarship..

After ur SPm result come out apply from STAR

UTAR does offer scholarship for spm student for their foundation program, 10As above will get full foundation tuition fees, after tht for degree level, juz hav to maintain it. so, if a 10As spm student apply into it, then he is able to maintain his result, he can get full scholar in UTar. correct me if i'm wrong.

btw a question, can a apply for UTAR degree program, after my result out, and i will pay for the foundation myself?
