BREAKING NEWS! MOE Scholarship

We would like to announce that the issue of not being able to apply to local institutions if you are applying for a scholarship has now been cleared.

If you refer to page 7 of the official MOE document it says that under the section of "Permohonan yang tidak dipertimbangkan", one of the factors that makes you ineligible to apply for scholarship is "Mereka yang diterima/ditawarkan tempat di instituti pendidikan tinggi dalam negeri".

The scholarship section at the MOE has clarified that what they mean by the above statement is, those that CURRENTLY STUDYING in UBD or ITB are not eligible for the MOE scholarship.

Therefore,
YOU CAN APPLY FOR MOE SCHOLARSHIP AND UBD/ITB AT THE SAME TIME.

We very much regret the any confusion and inconvenience caused.

Another point that we cleared up was that if you want to apply for the MOE scholarship but hope to boost your exam grades by taking the June exams then the scholarship section will only take your exam grades taken in ONE SITTING. i.e. you can NOT use the best grades from both November and June exams. Therefore if you are not satisfied with your grades and want to take June exams, you'd need to sit for all THREE A level core subjects!
