How To Gain a Scholarship?

Assalamualaikum and Good Evening,

Since this is my very first informative life experience, I am very eager to start it as soon as possible.

Before we start, I would like to inform all of you that these tips are just suggestions. You may add any other information down there at the comments below and any inquiries will be entertained as soon as possible.

Okay, let us start!
So, based on my experience you should first and foremost know what you want to be or pursue in life. If you have none, then don't even think about laying a finger on a scholarship. It's because a scholarship has their own regulations and if you are not committed enough in the course you are applying too, it would be very dangerous as you have to pay back the thousand ringgit scholarship and of course, that would lead to debts. 'There is no easy way in life'. Have you heard about that before? Yes, it's true but there is also this words, 'Nothing is impossible if you believe in the I'm possible'. But then again, there is also this words, 'It's not a dream if it's coming true' (chuckle) So, if you're not certain which is the best path to go, seek for God's help.

How do we actually get a scholarship?
1. First, find at least 10 scholarships that fits in with your requirements, so that you can apply it smoothly. How to find a scholarship? It's either from the talks around you, the television, the radio or the internet. For example, I subscribe to a scholarship blog. So, almost every week, they will be sending me new scholarship application inside and outside Malaysia.

2. Once we get it, do a LOT of research on the sponsors and the course you're applying to. If there is an interview required, remember, you MUST win their hearts by choosing the wisest words to explain yourself to them. How? Click here - (How to Win an Interviewer's Heart?) Some might also require for you to write an essay based on their topic given. You can also use these tips to help you to build a good essay.

3. Make sure you jot down the info about the scholarship somewhere:
SAMPLE
The Name of The Scholarship: Yayasan Peneraju
The Course: CAT-ACCA
The Study Place: Sunway, Subang Jaya
The Result's Date: 24 May 2017 (set as reminder)
The Enrollment Day: 5 June 2017
Their Phone Number: 03-9876543
Their Email Address: yayasanpeneraju@email.com

4. On the day where the result shall be commenced, if you still don't get any news from them CALL them! That what happens to me and I'm happy to inform you that I got the scholarship. Sometimes, there can be a few blunders inside the company. So, your application may be lost in the heaps of sheets inside their workplace. If you are lucky, find a friend who is applying the same scholarship and ask them if they had any news so that you won't miss out anything.

5. If you didn't get the scholarship, call them and ask them about the date you can make an appeal (rayuan) for the scholarship. Don't worry, every scholarship allows you to make an appeal once or twice. Come out with letters of appeal too if needed. Click here - (letter of assists) for a sample.

6. Whether you get the scholarship or not, don't forget to get all you personal documents with  Certified True Copy CTC cop so that you will always be prepared for any sudden enrollment. Believe me when I said that, especially when you have to deal with a scholarship surprise enrollment.

7. Last but not the least, before you sign the letter of your sponsorship agreement, make sure you read every detail on them and if you have inquiries about the scholarship, ask them there and then. This is to prevent any hidden regulation that might harm you in the future.

That's it. You shall get a scholarship if you follow these steps and if you're not like me, a straight A SPM student, DON'T FRET! There are thousands of scholarship that shall fit in with your requirements and you can apply them happily. As long as you work hard, it will surely pay off.

Good luck and may God be with you.
