How to Apply for a MARA Loan

The Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA) study loan scheme began in 1966 as a full scholarship. Starting in 1968, the program was divided into a scholarship program and a loan scheme. These loan schemes are available to Malaysian students from Bumiputera who qualify. Those who are receiving a full loan may convert the loan into a scholarship based on academic excellence and convertible application submission. Priority is given to students attending Malaysian universities is but not restricted to them.
