Editor's Note: The writer, Miss Hayma Malini, is a radio personality and TV host in Singapore; she also owns production house 23 Frames Pte Ltd with her husband Yugendran.
I did an interview with Dr Devendran in a program called "Sollathaan Ninaikkiraen" where he broke down, recounting his younger days... Impressed with how the interview went, he queried where I had done my degree and what my field of study was. I informed him I did not have a degree; thereafter he asked me to apply for the MDIS scholarship and urged me to continue my studies. Thanks to Dr Denan, I did so and secured a scholarship to do my Bachelor of Arts degree graduating with a 3.92/4 GPA and silver medal achievement.
I then applied for a scholarship with the Singapore Indian Education Trust (SIET) to pursue my masters with Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Thanks to SIET, I did complete my masters with NTU and decided to continue with a PhD there.
I was offered a place. However, despite having above decent grades (4.45/5) and relevant working experience, NTU chose not to grant me a scholarship.
