What happened to scholarship scheme?


THE launch of the Program Ijazah Luar Negara 2014 (PILN) hailed the beginning of a new era – an era where scholarships to study abroad are awarded to students not based solely on the scoring of more than 9A+s in SPM, but also upon their acceptance into prestigious universities around the world.

Students who excelled in the SPM examinations were granted small bursaries to fund their pre-university studies, but the acquirement of a bursary was not a criteria for the application of the PILN scholarship, nor was it intended to serve as a discriminating factor.
