Welcome to the inaugural issue of Scholars’ Connect, which aims to provide readers with scholarships-related information and inspiration, and connect the scholar community in SP, including aspiring scholars and alumni. In this issue, we take a closer look at what makes a scholar. Is there a defining archetype of a scholar? What does it take to clinch a prestigious scholarship? Let us demystify the stereotypes and scholarship preparation process through special features with our very own SP scholars and alumni. This issue also acquaints readers with the EDGE Scholars Programme, an initiative which seeks to prepare students for their scholarship journey. Find out what the EDGE students have been up to as they seek to make their mark in SP and beyond. We hope that Scholars’ Connect will prove invaluable in guiding scholarship hopefuls in their journey to realising their goals and aspirations. To this end, our very first issue connects you to Scholar-Mentors from respective schools who would be happy to advise on matters pertaining to diploma and undergraduate scholarships. Do not hesitate to reach out to them or the Scholarships Team at Student Services, for that matter. May the sharing of stories, hopes and aspirations bring us closer as a learning community and provide a powerful platform to achieve much more together. We wish you a pleasant and insightful reading experience! ABOUT SCHOLARS’ CONNECT
