As a high school junior considering studying in Thailand, I'm curious about undergraduate scholarships available for international students in 2023. Has anyone looked into this or has any advice on how to apply for these scholarships?
Sure, I can provide some information on this topic. Several educational institutions in Thailand offer scholarships for international students, including both partial and full scholarships. The competition for these scholarships can be quite high, so, I would recommend you to start preparing your applications as early as possible.
To illustrate, the Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology (SIIT) offers an undergraduate scholarship for excellent foreign students known as the "SIIT Scholarship Program". This program covers tuition and educational expenses, living allowances, and even includes a round-trip economy travel expenses.
Next, the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) provides the AIT International Undergraduate Scholarships. These scholarships cover the tuition fee and sometimes accommodation, depending on the type of scholarship you qualify for.
Another example is Mahidol University which offers scholarships to international applicants in various fields of study. These scholarships often cover tuition fees and living expenses.
Lastly, the Chulalongkorn University's scholarship program for ASEAN and Non-ASEAN countries is another good opportunity. It covers tuition fees, expenses, and provides a monthly allowance.
How to apply? It may vary by university, but typically, you'll need to fill out an application form for the scholarship, submit your high school transcripts and certificates, letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, and sometimes, you may have to demonstrate English language proficiency. Each university will have specific requirements and deadlines, so it's best to check their official websites for the most accurate information.
Remember to maintain a good academic record, as these scholarships are typically merit-based. And don't hesitate to reach out to the university's admissions office— they're often ready to assist you with any questions about the application process.
Good luck with your applications!
