Hi friends
This is my first blog on the internet. In my first blog, I would like to share my experience about what I did so that I got the scholarship to Netherlands. So many people asked me about this matter, but I just told them that I used the internet to find that scholarship. In this opportunity, I would like to give you a brief explanation about the scholarships, especially master degree scholarships.
The most powerful source to get the information about the scholarships is internet. One can use search engines such as google the famous one or others, on the internet to find all the information about schools, colleges, universities all over the world. Internet is an unlimited source of information. If we can maximize the use of this device, we will get any information we want to know.
KEY WORD
The first important thing that we have to know to find such information is the key words. If we want to find some information on the internet using search engines, we have to know the "key word". A suitable "key word" will make the information exploration more efficient and effective. For example, for someone who does not know the top universities in the world can use "top university" or "best university" as a keyword. Besides that, we can also use the keyword "rank university 2007". Another example. if we want to find the scholarships, we can use "scholarship for master student" or "research scholarship". You can try to use it as many as we want to find the information about universities or scholarships. Don't hesitate to use any keywords using google, just type it and see the results. If you don't find the information what you want, just change another key word.
The second important thing to know the information about the scholarship is by registering to scholarship group such as yahoo group for scholarship or milis beasiswa (for indonesia people). From these, you can get up to date information about the scholarships, and how to get the detail information about that as well as how to apply it.
Another way to get the information about the scholarships is from your university. You can get this kind information from your university whether from the International Office, your professors, your friends or banners and brochures. Don't hesitate to ask about the opportunities to get the scholarship to others. Ask as many as questions about the scholarships, the more information you get the bigger opportunity you will get.
The last thing that you have to remember and you have to ask to yourselft that weather or not you are qualified to receive the scholarship or financial assistance. It is very obvious indeed you should have a good qualification to get the scholarship. Each scholarships has different requirements but at least the first two things that you should be good at are your academic skill and your languange skill. These two things are the basic requirements that you should have to be nominated to get the scholarship. Basically, most organizations who provide the scholarship might ask you to have these things below:
1. Academic skill
It's a very good thing if you have a good academic skill, i.e. high GPA score. If you graduate from a good university and you have a GPA score, I suggest you to consider finding the scholarship in case that you want to continue your education instead of finding job.
2.Language Skill
The next aspect is language skill. The common language used in Master degree is English. Having a high score in TOEFL or IELST will enhance you chance to be admitted by the university. Most of universities require the student to have at least 580 for PBT-TOEFL or 92 for iBT-TOEFL or 237 for CBT TOEFL or 6.5 for IELST.'
3. Recommendation Letter
Having a recommendation letter from a famous professor will be a great advantage. If the professor from the university you apply have known you, it will be easier for you to be admitted by the university. And even it's not impossible that you will get the scholarship.
After you have these three things, hopefully you can be admitted by the university and get the scholarship. Good luck friends.
