MOE pre-U scholarship

[wonderm]

red rose:

Hi! Anyone knows roughly how many MOE Pre-U scholarships are given out every year? Thanks!

I am curious too.

[bbbay]

those apply for MOE Pre U scholarship need to go through a selection process. Anyone know the success rate?

[newbieks]

For IP students, is their ESIS ($2400/yr) valid for 6 years? Are they still eligible to apply for this MOE PreU scholarship?

I read Pre U scholarship is on top of ESIS. IP students can apply too:

Yes to both questions.

Another further question to clarify is,

For \" IP \" students -

if say, for example,
there are Total 900 \"IP\" students in RI (at JC1 level),
does it mean that


1) ALL entire 900 students , coming from both IP cohort (RI boys + RGS girls) combined together,

can apply for MOE PreU scholarship concurrently,
and then wait for your turn to be short listed for an interview (scholarship)


OR


2) only those cream of the Top 10% of the entire JC1 (RI) cohort,

who have received specific invitation(s) from school (RI) to apply, then can apply ?

Otherwise, if never received any invitation from school at all, means cannot apply ?

-
assuming that let's say,
out of Total
1200 RI students at Level JC1 only, say,
900 are IP students, while the balance (remaining) are 300 JAE (O level) students, who have entered RI
at nett L1R5 score, from (2 to 4).

Before u even get to know the success rate, first must find out, out of Total applicants who have applied, how many actually get short listed to attend the scholarship interview, first

All may apply, even if they have not been nominated by the JC. My daughter was not nominated, applied on her own, and was interviewed. For the record, she was unsuccessful. I don't know how many received the scholarship from RI, or across the nation.

Min academic criteria at end of sec 4 for IP students to be eligible for the scholarship is 8 points for L2R5. Not many can achieve that even in the IP school coupled with strong cca/leadership accolades plus recommendations from sch.
