Teatime: Tips and tricks for Reaching UII Scholarships

The Universitas Islam Indonesia/ UII has six scholarship programs to assist students in financing their studies. The completeness of the files and the personal qualities that are well described in the motivation letter is the keys.

Besides helping to reduce tuition fees, getting a full scholarship is a matter of pride. This Teatime Talk show, February 25, 2022, presents Fikri Haikal Ramadhan, an International Program student at the Department of Communications at the UII. Today’s talk show is to discuss tips and tricks to get a full scholarship at UII. Haikal is one of the recipients of the Excellent Santri scholarship. The event entitled ‘Tips and Trick to be the Awardee of UII Outstanding Santri scholarship‘ was hosted by Arsila as the host.  

This scholarship is one type of scholarship that provides full support. This scholarship funds tuition and living expenses, as well as housing. The Excellent Santri Scholarship aims to provide provisions for future cadres of community leaders. This scholarship also seeks to prepare students who are ready for the concept and ready for practice. PP UII students (Pondok Pesantren/ Islamic Boarding School of UII) are expected to be able to strengthen and integrate religion, science, and technology.

Haikal advised being careful in preparing the files to apply for this scholarship. Make sure none of the files are missing. In addition, writing essays in motivation letters. Haikal suggested that writing self-motivation as much as possible shows a strong character for self-improvement. “Intention is a must. Not just want to have a free college or try it out. But we really need it and we are improving,” said Haikal.

In building a self-image in a motivation letter, we should show ourselves some of the things we have achieved as evidence of self-quality. What is the dream to be achieved and how the dream will be achieved. This can be related to the purpose of this scholarship program which will help participants achieve their dreams. “It’s not just fulfilling our obligations to study because we have received a scholarship, but how can we grow and improve ourselves while living it,” he added.

In addition to the Excellent Santri scholarship, UII also has several scholarship schemes that can be chosen according to the conditions, talents, and achievements of students. The scholarships are Athletes and Art Champion, Dhuafa Scholarships, Tahfidz Al Qur’an, Excellence Scholarships, and Scholarships for Foreign Students.
