Whether you have completed the SPM or you are still studying in secondary school, you must have heard of the JPA Scholarship which is scholarship provided by the government. I am sure you want to get more information about these scholarships. Here, I am going to explain in detail about the JPA Scholarship.
Whether you have completed the SPM or you are still studying in secondary school, you must have heard of the JPA Scholarship which is scholarship provided by the government. I am sure you want to get more information about these scholarships. Here, I am going to explain in detail about the JPA Scholarship.
After you complete your SPM, you
have to study a pre-university programme before you can study a degree
course in any university, whether local or overseas. There are many
pre-university programmes available in Malaysia, such as STPM, A Level,
Matriculation, IB, CPU, SAM, Foundation and others. It is not possible
to get into any degree course directly after SPM. While some students go
straight into universities after SPM, they still have to study a
pre-university programme such as Foundation at that university before
they can start their degree course. For more information about each
pre-university programme to help you make a choice, go to here:

There are many different types of
the JPA scholarship, which includes Program Penajaan 9A+ (P9A+ /
PC9A), Program Bursary (BURS1), Penajaan Lepasan Bursary (BURS), Program
Ijazah Dalam Negara (PIDN), Program Penajaan Nasional (PPN), Program
Khas Jepun, Korea, Perancis dan Jerman (JKPJ), Program Dermasiswa B40
(DMSW) and Program Khas JPA-MARA (PKJM).
Depending on the type, the JPA scholarship may sponsor for pre-university programmes, degree courses in universities, or both.
(A) Program Penajaan 9A+ (P9A+ / PC9A):
Depending on the type, the JPA scholarship may sponsor for pre-university programmes, degree courses in universities, or both.
(A) Program Penajaan 9A+ (P9A+ / PC9A):
NOTICE: This scholarship replaces the Program Bursary (see part B) which was offered in 2016. Unlike the Program Bursary, this scholarship only sponsors for STPM, Matriculation and Foundation programmes but not A Level or IB. Initially, it was planned that only the SPM 2016 students who obtained straight A+ in SPM would be offered this scholarship. Later, the plan is changed so that all SPM 2016 students who obtained 9A+ or above will be offered this scholarship.
This scholarship is for all SPM 2016 students who obtained 9A+ or above in SPM. (Students who are successfully offered and accepted the Program Penajaan Nasional will no longer be offered this scholarship.) It sponsors for local pre-university programmes which only include STPM, Matriculation and Foundation. You can choose the pre-university programme you want to study, as long as you are able to get the offer to study it.
After you have completed the pre-university programme under this scholarship, you will be sponsored for your degree course if you meet the requirements. This scholarship sponsors for degree courses at selected local universities only. It also does not sponsor for twinning or credit transfer programmes with overseas universities. Only degree courses and universities that are in the list for this scholarship are sponsored. You can choose any course and university in the list, as long as you are able to get the offer to study the course at the university.
This scholarship sponsors for the tuition fees of the pre-university programme and degree course in full. You will also be given a monthly allowance. It will not sponsor for your accommodation specifically, instead you are expected to use part of the monthly allowance to pay for the accommodation. This scholarship will start sponsoring when you begin the pre-university programme and this will continue until you complete the degree course. It is guaranteed that every student who meets all the requirements will be offered this scholarship. There is no selection process for this scholarship, so you do not need to attend any interviews. If you meet the requirements, you will still need to follow the procedures to register for this scholarship in order to be offered it.

(B) Program Bursary (BURS1):
Not to be confused with Program Lepasan Bursary (see part C).
NOTICE: This scholarship replaced the KPM Bursary which was offered from 2012 to 2015. Unlike the KPM Bursary, this scholarship is provided by JPA instead of the Ministry of Education. Initially, it was planned that only the best 250 among the SPM 2015 students who obtained 9A+ or above in SPM would be offered this scholarship. Later, the plan was changed so that all SPM 2015 students who obtained 9A+ or above would be offered this scholarship. In 2017, this scholarship is replaced by the Program Penajaan 9A+ (see part A).
This scholarship is for all SPM 2015 students who obtained 9A+ or above in SPM. (Students who are successfully offered and accepted the Program Penajaan Nasional will no longer be offered this scholarship.) It sponsors for local pre-university programmes which include A Level, IB, STPM, STAM, Matriculation and Foundation. Only colleges that are in the list for this scholarship are sponsored. You can choose any pre-university programme and college in the list, as long as you are able to get the offer to study the programme at the college.
After you have completed the pre-university programme under this scholarship, you will be sponsored for your degree course if you meet the requirements. This scholarship sponsors for degree courses at selected local universities only. It also does not sponsor for twinning or credit transfer programmes with overseas universities. Only degree courses and universities that are in the list for this scholarship are sponsored. You can choose any course and university in the list, as long as you are able to get the offer to study the course at the university.
This scholarship sponsors for the tuition fees of the pre-university programme and degree course in full. You will also be given a monthly allowance. It will not sponsor for your accommodation specifically, instead you are expected to use part of the monthly allowance to pay for the accommodation. This scholarship will start sponsoring when you begin the pre-university programme in June or July of the year after your SPM and this will continue until you complete the degree course. It is guaranteed that every student who meets all the requirements will be offered this scholarship. There is no selection process for this scholarship, so you do not need to attend any interviews. If you meet the requirements, you will still need to follow the procedures to register for this scholarship in order to be offered it.
(For A Level, some colleges offer
the option to choose between 18 months programme and 24 months
programme. You can choose either one, and this scholarship will sponsor
throughout the duration of your A Level programme. Besides, it is
possible that you have began your A Level earlier in January before your
SPM results is released. In that case, you can choose to either remain
in the January intake or switch to the July intake. However, if you
choose to remain in the January intake, this scholarship will only start
sponsoring from July until you complete your A Level programme, and any
tuition fees before July will not be sponsored.)
(For degree courses at some local private universities, you may have applied to them before the final results of your pre-university programme is released using your forecast results, and got a conditional offer from them. The university may require you to pay a deposit before your final results is released, and it is likely that they will not waive the deposit payment until you have completed the registration for this scholarship. However, it is not possible to complete registration for this scholarship if your final results is not yet released. If you are in this situation and you do not want to pay the deposit yourself, you can get a JPA scholarship conditional offer letter (TFA) from JPA. You can get up to 2 TFA for 2 different universities, and you can still switch to other universities after your final results is released if you wish. To get the TFA, you should submit the forecast results of your pre-university programme, the conditional offer letter from your university and a copy of your identity card to JPA through post or by going to the JPA headquarters in Putrajaya. Then, submit the TFA to your university and they will waive the deposit payment. After your final results is released and you get the unconditional offer from your university, you will still need to follow the usual procedures to register for this scholarship.)

(C) Program Lepasan Bursary (BURS):
Not to be confused with Program Bursary (see part B).
NOTICE: Previously before 2016, this scholarship sponsored for both local and overseas universities. On 11 January 2016, this scholarship was suspended temporarily, so it was not possible to register for it. On 28 January 2016, it was announced that this scholarship will be resumed, but unlike in the past, it will only sponsor for local universities but not overseas universities. Students who are already offered this scholarship for overseas university before it was suspended are not affected in any way. On 10 February 2016, the registration for this scholarship was reopened. On 5 April 2016, it was announced that all SPM 2011-2014 students sponsored by the KPM Bursary qualify for this scholarship.
This scholarship is for all SPM
2011-2014 students who were sponsored by the KPM Bursary and have
completed the pre-university programme. Currently, this scholarship
sponsors for degree courses at selected local universities only. It also
does not sponsor for twinning or credit transfer programmes with
overseas universities. Only degree courses and universities that are in
the list for this scholarship are sponsored. You can choose any course
and university in the list, as long as you are able to get the offer to
study the course at the university.
This
scholarship sponsors for the tuition fees of the degree course in full.
You will also be given a monthly allowance, where its amount depends on
the course and university you choose. It will not sponsor for your
accommodation specifically, instead you are expected to use part of the
monthly allowance to pay for the accommodation. This scholarship will
start sponsoring when you begin the degree course in university and this
will continue until you complete the degree course. It is guaranteed
that every student who meets all the requirements will be offered this
scholarship. There is no selection process for this scholarship, so you
do not need to attend any interviews. If
you meet the requirements, you will still need to follow the procedures
to register for this scholarship in order to be offered it.
(For some local private universities, you may have applied to them before the final results of your pre-university programme is released using your forecast results, and got a conditional offer from them. The university may require you to pay a deposit before your final results is released, and it is likely that they will not waive the deposit payment until you have completed the registration for this scholarship. However, it is not possible to complete registration for this scholarship if your final results is not yet released. If you are in this situation and you do not want to pay the deposit yourself, you can get a JPA scholarship conditional offer letter (TFA) from JPA. You can get up to 2 TFA for 2 different universities, and you can still switch to other universities after your final results is released if you wish. To get the TFA, you should submit the forecast results of your pre-university programme, the conditional offer letter from your university and a copy of your identity card to JPA through post or by going to the JPA headquarters in Putrajaya. Then, submit the TFA to your university and they will waive the deposit payment. After your final results is released and you get the unconditional offer from your university, you will still need to follow the usual procedures to register for this scholarship.)
