SINGAPORE – Students from Tampines Meridian Junior College (TMJC) were handed copies of The Straits Times along with a supplement on scholarships at a Scholars’ Choice outreach event, held in conjunction with the release of the A-level examination results, on Feb 27.
Organised by SPH Media, the event spotlights the Scholars’ Choice platform run by ST. The one-stop website aims to provide comprehensive information on scholarships offered by private organisations and government bodies.
TMJC students were also treated to bubble tea at the second outreach event by Scholars’ Choice at a school, with the first held at Victoria Junior College in 2025.
Students can visit the Scholars’ Choice website to browse and apply for scholarships provided by more than 40 organisations.
Kiss92FM DJ Shawnia Seah, who interacted with students at a booth, said: “Getting to talk to the students about Scholars’ Choice showed that many of them are already planning ahead, and that’s always a good sign, especially for the next generation with the increasingly competitive job market today.
“I’m really looking forward to where they’re going to go.”
