Article 1 Objective
To encourage Macao’s excellent students to enroll in
the Higher degree programmes offered by Macao Polytechnic
Institute (MPI), MPI has established the “Scholarship
for Excellent New Students of Higher Diploma Programmes” (hereinafter “scholarship”).
|
Article 2 Eligibility
Macao residents who have enrolled on Higher Diploma
Programmes offered by MPI are eligible and shall be selected
according to the results of their admission exam (based on
the requirements of the different programmes, including marks
of written exams, interviews or specific exams). The list of
recommended students will be sent to the Institute’s
Management Board for approval by the Student Management Office.
Students who have been awarded scholarships or have received
grants from other organizations are still eligible for the
scholarship, provided that there is no conflict with existing
related regulations.
|
Article 3 Quota
The quota of scholarships will depend upon the number
of classes required for the different programmes (one quota
for each class). |
Article 4 Value
of the Scholarship
50% of the annual tuition fee of the programme the
recipient has been accepted for will be discounted, provided
that the recipient has been enrolled on the programme and has
submitted the tuition fee.
|
Article 5 Duration
of the Scholarship
The Institute will issue the scholarships annually,
once the recipients begin their studies at the Institute. The
duration of the scholarship will cover the time span of the
recipient’s programme (according to the time span stipulated
by the study plan published in the government’s gazette).
However, if the recipient encounters circumstances as indicated
in Article 6 below during his/her studies, the scholarship
will be terminated.
|
Article 6 Termination
of Scholarship
Recipients must study their programme according to
the study plan stipulated in the government’s gazette,
and must be full-time students. Moreover, at the end of each
academic year, the recipient’s cumulative GPA must rank
among the top 25% of his/her programme (with the same teaching
language and mode of study). If recipients suspend or defer
their studies or change to part-time mode half-way through
their studies, or fail in any subjects by the end of the academic
year, their scholarships will be terminated automatically.
Once the scholarship has been terminated, no re-applications
can be accepted. If the scholarship amount has already been
deducted from the tuition fee at the time the scholarship is
terminated, the recipient will be required to repay the deducted
amount. Failure to comply with this condition will lead to
the former scholarship recipient being suspended from the School.

Article 7 Others
Any other issues arising which are not specified in
these regulations shall be subject to determination by the
Institute’s Management Board. |
