Scholarships
What are Scholarships?
Scholarships are defined as monetary awards for education. We all know that scholarships are
generally given to over-achievers or leaders in various fields of academics, arts, sports or on a needs
basis. The award can range from a few hundred ringgit to the entire cost of your education - and even
includes living allowance.
However, it is important to note that scholarships are not free money. Most organisations who offer
scholarships do so because they want to invest in your lives. Some would expect you to develop
a career in specific disciplines, for example, oil and gas, at their companies. Some will expect the
scholars to contribute in terms of serving the community or being ambassadors for the organisation.
Sports scholarships are mostly offered to athletes who have the ability to shine and play at highly
competitive sports events to represent the learning institution.
In Malaysia, most scholarships are awarded by higher learning institutions, government and
non-government organisations, corporations and independent foundations. In almost all cases,
scholarships are not given automatically, so you will need to submit an application and go through a
selection process.
You will be competing with hundreds, if not thousands, of other hopeful applicants, so it is important
that you put a lot of thought into the application process and go prepared for your interview. Therefore,
take some time to do research on the various types of scholarships, get advice from people who
have walked that path (and this is where social media is really handy) and be sure to create as many
achievements as possible while you are still in school. You might just obtain the scholarship you have
been aiming for, along with other amazing benefits to get started on achieving your dream career.
This booklet will guide you on how the application process works, plus tips for securing a scholarship.
We have also included a list of scholarships available, so that you can get started.
All the best!
How to Write a Scholarship Essay?

Scholarship essays are requested by the scholarship board to access you on your knowledge.
Questions can vary from the simplest tell us about yourself to a scenario about saving the country
on a certain issue.
Before writing your scholarship essay, read the instructions and make sure you understand the goal
of this essay. Know your target audience, plan your points, and write them down. Make your essay
personal and interesting so that the scholarship board is able to connect with you, and is aware that
you are truly serious in obtaining that scholarship.
Be sure to keep it short and concise - about 5 or 6 main points is enough, and elaborate on those
points. You can score bonus points by including how you can give back to the organisation if you were
granted the scholarship. Also, ensure there is sufficient space for you to include your list of talents
and accomplishments so that you can share how you can be nurtured to be one of the organisations
employees or be a benefit to the community.
The important thing is, write the essay in simple language and of course, ensure that there are no
grammar and spelling errors! Definitely get it proof-read before submitting the essay.
Rsum Writing
a. Format your rsum wisely
Draft out your rsum before writing. Ensure the flow is smooth and tells a great story about
you.
b. Identify your accomplishments
Be sure to impress them with your best academic and sports or community achievements!
Any achievements from your school days are important to dazzle them with how talented you
are. Define your roles and goals along the way to show you are a person with big ambitions.
c. Personalise your rsum
Do not just use the same rsum when applying to various scholarships. It is good to
tweak your rsum specifically for the organisation. It is also good to include a letter of
recommendation or a reference letter by a significant person in your life, like a sports coach,
social club leader or a religious leader.
d. Write from your heart!
Highlight your strengths, but yet write from your heart. Everyones rsum will be different,
therefore dont compare and dont be afraid. Be natural with your writing, but ensure it is
also within the professional scope no SMS language or urban English words such as
psyched, stoked, or even swag, please! You can also include your best photo that was
taken professionally.
e. Simple English and no room for errors
A rsum should be simple and presented clearly. Stick to simple English and short sentences.
Check your rsum numerous times before submitting, for spelling errors. You should also
get a good friend or mentor to proof-read this for you.
How to get Recommendations or Referrals

For the final lap of your scholarship application, you need to attach a referral letter from someone
prominent in your school or someone significant within your social group. It is an important touch
to your scholarship application for the scholarship board to know you better as an individual.
Recommendations can be from your school teacher, headmaster or even a sports coach who
knows you and has been with you for a significant period and also knows your qualities and
supports your achievements.
These recommendations are to help make your application stand out. When requesting your
referee to write for you, do give them enough time to do so as well as provide them with supporting
documents like your rsum, the application form and a short paragraph of your achievements.
Your referee also needs to know the deadline of the application. You would have to check if the
recommendation letter needs to be submitted by you or by your referee directly to the scholarship
board you are applying for.
Good Luck! Be proud of your achievements!

Preparing for a Scholarship Interview

If you are invited for a scholarship interview, congratulations. It means that your rsum has been well
received and they want to meet you.
Here are 4 tips to impress in an interview
1) Relax and be yourself!
Just give it your best shot and be confident.
2) Keep your answer straight to the point and be concise
Prior to the interview, practice with an experienced adult (with several years of working
experience).
3) Be approachable
Make an impression during the interview that the organisation will benefit greatly with you on
board. Dont give up if the questions get tricky.
4) Dress, look and act like a professional
Look your best and remind yourself you are the best.
Friendly reminders

Before the interview, review your application materials thoroughly. Bring your original documents
and also photocopies of documents you have submitted to support your scholarship application.
Prepare mentally and emotionally for demanding and challenging questions.
Read up on the organisation prior to the interview to see how you can give back to them as a
future employee.
During the interview, take your time to respond and dont ramble while answering the questions.
Take the opportunity to meet fellow interviewees you might be working with them in the future!
10 examples of frequently asked interview questions:

Tell me about yourself, your background and interests. How did you come to be the person you
are today?
What is your biggest weakness?
What do you do for fun? What do you do in your spare time?
Share a story that illustrate your strengths or weaknesses.
Give an example of a time youve been thrown into a new, uncomfortable situation. Why was it
uncomfortable? Were you able to be successful in that experience? If yes, what did you do to
ensure your success? If no, why not?
What do you imagine yourself doing in 10 years?
What makes you an ideal candidate for this opportunity?
What do you hope to learn from this experience?
Who is your role model?
What is your proudest moment?
What to Wear for the Interview

Women
Choose business clothes that fit and flatter your body type.
Keep your hair neat and styled. A disheveled look will hurt your chances for the scholarship.
Wear daytime make up - not too heavy and definitely no glitter. Lipstick is optional but if you
want to wear it, choose natural colours. Keep fragrances to a minimum as well.
Jewelry and accessories can help but remember to keep it minimal, too. This is a scholarship
interview, so you need to shine and not your attire.

Men
Select a simple crisp business shirt, a matching tie, a pair of shoes and pants that can make you look
and feel good. Because of our Malaysian weather, wearing a jacket may make you uncomfortable,
which will be an unwelcomed addition to your stress. Alternatively, you can bring the jacket along and
wear it moments before the interview. Generally, most interviewers are understanding and would not
expect you to wear a jacket.
Make sure you look professional and not sluggish ensure your shirt is crease-free!
No piercings and be clean shaven.
Clean nails, teeth and no bad breath.
Finally
Be early. Arrive at the venue at least 20 minutes in advance to give yourself time to freshen up
at the restroom and you will not have added stress because you were rushing for time.

Be polite to everyone you meet. The interviewers can gauge someone by how that person
treats people, including the receptionist and the cleaner.

Financial Loans
What are Financial Loans?
Financial loans are money, property or other material goods borrowed in exchange for future repayment
of the principal amount, along with interest or other finance charges. In Malaysia, financial study loans
are given out to students who would like to further their education be it locally or overseas. Examples of
organisations that have these loans are PTPTN, MCA/MIEC, Kuok Foundation and Kojadi Education.
Financial loans come with very minimal requirements generally, you have be a Malaysian citizen,
at a certain age and have earned a certain qualification. They also have very minimal interest rates,
like PTPTN is only 1% and once you start work, the loan can be repaid gradually. All the necessary
information can be found from the respective websites.
Do I need a Guarantor?
The application process for these loans can be a little sticky and tedious but its for all the right
reasons, as your lender needs to be assured that the loan will be repaid at the end of your education
period.
For this reason, you need a guarantor. The best guarantors are your parents. Dont be concerned if
your parents face financial difficulties, or are no longer around because leeway is given to special
cases. They will be asked to provide their personal information, as well as their financial statements
to justify why that you need a loan.
Can I convert a loan to a scholarship?

Yes, you read it right! A loan can be waived or converted to a scholarship if you can meet certain

Testimonials
Joe Ong

SEGi University
High Achievers Scholarship (HAS)
Life in SEGi:
As a medical student, our time table is always packed with lectures,
assessments and practicals. However, with proper time management,
I am still able to get a healthy and happy lifestyle while training to
be a good doctor. The medical degree at SEGi is student-centered,
where lecturers are willing to spend time with the students to explain
lecture material. Teamwork is also a key part of the philosophy of the
programme which prepares the students for their work as future doctors.
Scholarship Tips:
Remember that it is all about your very best to achieve what you want,
as well as having a positive attitude towards your studies.
Ng Xelynn
SEGi College Subang Jaya
High Achievers Scholarship (HAS)
Life at SEGi:
As a SEGi scholarship holder, Im exposed to more learning experience.
Working 5 hours a week as a student helper at SEGi is definitely worth it.
The experience that I had gained working here can never be achieved by
studying from text books. Other than that, maintaining my CGPA might
be challenging but this pressure serves as my motivation to work harder.
Scholarship Tips:
Work hard and do your best. Do not let this great opportunity to obtain a
scholarship to just slip away!
Chung Shun Mun

Yayasan Pendidikan Bistari Scholarship
Life in SEGi:
My experience in SEGi has been great. The lecturers are knowledgeable,
professional and very helpful. Ive learnt a lot in the first year of my
studies here. Apart from that, I also got to know many new friends here.
Scholarship Tips:
For all who wish to obtain a scholarship, do not hesitate to ask your
course consultant or the scholarship coordinators for information on
the scholarship. Once you have obtained the scholarship, get yourself
motivated to study hard so you can get good grades. Good grades also
guarantee a better future for you.
