Hi, this is my first time posting a message. I've just been

accepted into Duke University in the US of A and am actively

searching for a scholarship. I'm Malaysian but I've never actually

studied in Malaysia (unless you count pre-kindergarten). The point

is that I have never taken the SPM or the STPM, although I do

have O-level and A-level certificates from Singapore. I am also

consequently quite abysmal at Malay. (I've only ever done it as a

third langauge.) So the biggie - are there any scholarships that are

viable to me? I really need to know so any help or replies will be

greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

o_O Rafflesian? Couldn't you apply one in Singapore (from what I heard studying there for 10 years makes you eligible to be a PR)?

Have you tried applying in Singapore after your A-Levels?

Actually, the real question is, are you planning to stay in the states or come back to work in Malaysia / Singapore?

Try Singapore government agencies. Eg
CAAS (http://www.caas.gov.sg/caas/level2.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302024019&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181073&bmUID=1136887769142)
