What are the expectations to maintain the scholarship? Academic and non-academic requirements are evaluated every year, and a minimum score must be maintained. A scholarship student is also expected to demonstrate positive behavior and be involved in student leadership roles. Does the meeting with the Scholarship Committee require the presence of both parents? Yes, but only if needed. It's not necessary for both parents to attend, though attendance is recommended. What happens if I am unable to receive the scholarship? Depending on the test result, a student might be accepted as a regular candidate. What is the content of the test? The test includes Mathematics, English speaking, English writing, Bahasa Indonesia (at several campuses), and an interview. Is the test online or offline? The test is conducted in person and lasts about 2-3 hours, with duration varying by campus. Can I apply for a scholarship to more than one SPH school? Yes; you can indicate your first and second choice of SPH campuses in your registration of interest form. However, when it comes to the actual application, you can only apply to one SPH school at a time. Based on test results, the school will inform which campus you have been accepted to. Will I need to make a registration payment? Yes, there is an application fee that needs to be paid in advance. The fee is discounted by 50% and is non-refundable.
