INFO: SPM Scholarship

Note: Last updated on 31st May 2016. Will be updated from time to time,at least annually.

Hello, I have compiled every scholarship provider and I hope that it will be of good use to all. This is strictly for SPM leavers.

The list will be updated from time to time. (It will be updated at least annually). 

Sponsorhip includes:

Scholarships-You don't need to pay,but most sponsor will give a bond to work at that company/entity after you graduate. But it doesn't mean that you are confirmed with jobs because there will be cut off points or requirements as well in order to fulfill the contractual agreement.Depends on sponsors.

Convertible loan-Mara/JPA/petronas(you need to pay 20% if you don't get to work with petronas, correct me if I'm wrong). You need to pay back some,if not all amount. You pay back based on some conditions. Mara is based on academic performance. Jpa is based on whether you get to work with the government after you graduate etc.

In general there are:
Overseas and Local scholarships

The application can be either through:
Website portal of the scholarship provider
Email (as in JCORP)
Manual handwriting (download forms from the company's website and send by post, as in MAYBANK AND PNB)

For post SPM scholarships, most of the sponsors, if not all, will provide the preparatory college for the pre-university programme especially for its overseas programme.
For more details, you can inquire the staffs for each sponsor through phone or email as they will know more about the entire process of selection.

For MARA,JPA and YPM JAD, you guys can just google it up. Because those are some general scholarships where most people will apply. The list that I provide here is more towards other corporate or companies that you can get sponsorhips/scholarships as well.

Time line of scholarship results

Usually the result of each scholarship using Actual Spm result will be announced as early as end of March and as late as early July.
For scholarships using Trial Spm result,it is usually announced as early as December until March the following year. However,these trial scholarships do have minimum expected requirements for actual Spm results. This is to ensure that the successful candidates have maintained the same consistency for every examination.

Here is the time line that I made based on the actual result related in 2016. Generally it will not change much over the years.
