FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions for Scholarships for Degree Programs
How to Qualify for Scholarships for Degree Programs?
At GES Global, we guide you in finding the best scholarship opportunities based on your academic background and future goals. To qualify for a scholarship for a degree program, you must meet the specific requirements defined by the respective universities or colleges. Here’s an overview of the typical requirements:
1. Course Entry Requirements: Many scholarships, especially those from private institutions, are available to students who meet the basic entry requirements for the degree program they wish to pursue, such as a certain number of credits or specific subject requirements from prior academic qualifications.
2. Academic Results: (Merit Scholarship) Scholarships for degree programs often reward merit. Your academic performance in previous exams, like your SPM, O-Levels, A-Levels, or Foundation/Diploma CGPA, plays a significant role in determining the scholarship you are eligible for. The better your results, the higher the chance for more substantial scholarship offers.
3. Sports Achievements: If you excel in sports, some universities and private institutions offer sports scholarships depending on national- or state-level athletes.
4. Non-Academic Achievements: Scholarships also look for well-rounded candidates. Leadership roles, community involvement, and success in extracurricular activities like competitions or volunteer work can increase your chances of being awarded a scholarship.
5. Household Income and Other Conditions (Financial Aid and Bursaries): Many scholarships are aimed at helping students from disadvantaged backgrounds, including those with low household income, single-parent families, or disabilities. These scholarships ensure that deserving students get the chance to further their education despite financial constraints.
How to Apply for Scholarships for Degree Programs?
1. Submit Your Application to GES Global: Once you find a scholarship that suits your needs, simply send your application documents to us.
2. Review & Expert Guidance: Our education counsellors will review your application, offering personalised advice and guidance on strengthening your application. We’ll also make sure all necessary documentation is complete and meets the requirements of the scholarship provider.
3. Application Submission: After reviewing your application, GES Global will submit it to the respective university or scholarship provider on your behalf. We ensure your application is submitted to the right place, at the right time, to maximise your chances of success.
How to Get a Scholarship for Degree Programs in Malaysia or Study Abroad
1. Merit-Based Scholarships: Many universities from Malaysia or abroad offer merit scholarships based on your academic results. These scholarships are often awarded automatically when you apply, provided you meet the academic criteria. We recommend applying early to secure these limited scholarships.
2. Non-Merit Scholarships: For scholarships based on talent, leadership, financial need, or study abroad opportunities, the application process is more competitive. These scholarships require higher achievements and involve multiple stages, such as interviews and assessments. The scholarships will be awarded based on these selection criteria.
3. International Scholarship: These international scholarships are available for international students studying at their respective universities. They are awarded based on academic performance, talents, and other criteria specified by the universities.
How Are Scholarship Payments Made?
It is important to maintain the required CGPA or academic performance as stipulated in the scholarship agreement. If you fail to meet the required standards, the scholarship could be revoked or reduced for subsequent semesters. Subject to the respective universities terms and conditions.
How Does the Scholarship Application Process Work?
1. Check Course Eligibility: Ensure that your academic qualifications meet the entry requirements of your preferred university and course.
2. Identify Scholarships: We will help you find scholarships that match your academic and non-academic achievements.
3. Submit Application: Submit your application along with the required documentation and registration fee.
4. Accept the Offer: Once accepted, you will receive your offer letter, which includes details on the scholarships you’ve secured.
