The prestigious Malaysian Laws Scholarship for the year 2015 has once again been snagged by a student from ATC. The scholarship programme was introduced in 1994 and is given to the individual who obtains the highest marks in Year One of the University of London’s International Undergraduate Laws Programme.
This
year it is awarded to Ms. Daphne Sit Wei Jing, a student from ATC’s Kuala
Lumpur campus. This highly coveted Scholarship, fondly referred to as the
King’s Scholarship, gives its recipient the opportunity to complete Years 2 and
3 of the Undergraduate Laws Programme at the historic King’s College London.
“Receiving
the King’s scholarship is the greatest accomplishment that I have achieved as a
law student thus far. I have always been a strong believer in the basic
principle that hard work pays off. This recognition from such a notable source
has definitely proved that consistent dedication and effort given to studies
will eventually end with fruitful results.” says Daphne. “I can still recall the exact moment when I
received the phone call from London informing me that I was the recipient for
the King’s Scholarship for the year 2015. I was extremely surprised and excited
at the same time. When reality finally set in, I felt very fortunate to be
selected as the one to be given this incredible opportunity to pursue my
studies at King’s College London.”
Daphne
credits her success to her family and friends as well as to her lecturers at
ATC. “I would also like to take this opportunity to thank ATC and all my
lecturers for providing me with a strong platform and foundation to pursue and
cultivate my passion for law. Their dedication and knowledge will always be
with me and I will carry their lessons with me regardless of whatever it is that
I pursue in life”
ATC
is no stranger to this outstanding award. This 2015 award cements the fact that
the long established law school has consistently produced students who have
qualified for the Scholarship. Just last year, the very same award went to Ms.
Jeevitha Thurai who is currently pursuing the remainder of her law degree at
King’s College London.
Since
the first Scholarship was awarded in 1995, the students of ATC have obtained it
14 times, with 5 consecutive awards given to Year 1 students of ATC from the
years 2000 to 2005. Certainly, this is no easy feat!
Each
of these recipients appear to have a common running thought and that is that
their deep understanding of the law is due primarily to the dedication and
constant support from their large faculty of lecturers who are constantly
available to them on campus and who even regularly assist their students via
social media.
To
this date, of all the institutions that provide the University of London’s
International Undergraduate Laws Programme worldwide, ATC remains the single
institution with the most awards in its 28-year history. The exceptional
quality of the students of ATC has been recognised time and time again by the
University of London with students from ATC consistently receiving various book
prizes and obtaining the almost unattainable First Class Honours and Second
Class Upper degrees from the University.
ATC
is undoubtedly experienced in providing the University of London’s
International Undergraduate Laws Programme and its students have no intention
of slowing down. They appear to be fired up and ready to go charging into the
pursuit of excellence. This brings to mind the fact that ATC’s slogan rings
true: the results do indeed speak for themselves, and clearly, this year is no
exception.
