Garden International School is proud to offer a range of scholarships to deserving students who can develop their talent and effectively contribute at a high level as part of the school community. The aims of the programme are to encourage and motivate students to strive for excellence, and to ensure students deserving of an outstanding education are not constrained by financial considerations.
Types of Scholarship
Scholarships will be awarded to students who can demonstrate significant excellence in either academic or co-curricular performance. To be considered for a scholarship, students need to be applying to enter Year 10 or 12 in August 2017. The Scholarship Awards will represent a significant reduction in school tuition fees. Successful candidates will also benefit from the application fee (RM1300) and registration fees (RM20,000) being waived.
The scholarship committee comprising the Principal, Head of Operations, Head of Secondary, and a representative from the Student Leadership Team will interview the candidates and meet to determine the final awards. A member of the relevant academic or co-curricular department may also be part of the selection process for the respective scholarships.
Scholarship Eligibility
These Scholarships are designed for Malaysian (Malaysian passport holders) SPM and (I)GCSE students who are applying for a place in Year 10 or 12 in August 2017. Applicants should have exemplary academic and/or co-curricular achievements to date, a commitment to helping others, highly developed collaborative skills and a capacity for abstract levels of thinking and reasoning.
Each student is eligible to receive no more than one type of scholarship per academic year.
