Singapore offers scholarships in economics

JAKARTA: The Singapore Accountancy Academy-Global Education (SAA-GE) program says it will offer scholarships for its newest international program, a diploma in economics, to one eligible student per country, focusing on the Asia Pacific region.

“We will offer one scholarship for one country. The scholarship is full. It will be given to those who can meet the requirements,” SAA-GE academic program head Michael Cope said on the sidelines of the diploma’s launch.

“We will carry out standard recruitment for this scholarship program. The applicants should be 18 years old at a minimum, graduates of senior high schools with excellent scores, able to speak English fluently and have excellent scores in math,” he said as quoted by kompas.com.

All applicants must pass interview sessions, he said.

Indonesian students had a chance to get the scholarship as long as they could meet all the requirements, Michael said. — JP
