Day +1089 : Offered JPA Scholarship, but not the right course

I am fine today.

I talked about my niece experience in applying for JPA scholarship on Day +1064 : Another lie exposed. After she was denied the scholarship, she took up the offer to study in Kolej Matrikulasi Labuan (Matriculation College of Labuan).

Yesterday, JPA staff contacted her to offer her scholarship, doing a course in either Biotechnology or Science in a local campus of foreign university. One of them mentioned was Monarch University.

After careful consideration, she turned down the offer. The reason is that there is no point for her to take up a course which was beyond her interest. Continuing doing her matriculation course in Labuan stands a better chance to get a course of her choice in local government university.

So the reply to JPA was that she would only take up a course in dentistry or medicine, and she didn’t mind to be on the waiting list. Just hope that some seats will be vacated by someone who got a better offer when the semester starts, and she will be offered to fill in the vacant seat; else, continuing the matriculation study remains as her course :-)

See you next post :-)
