1. The College of Arts in Hue, Faculty of Fine Arts in
Phnom Penh, and the National Faculty of Fine Arts in
Vientiane will each nominate two candidates and will
forward the application forms and curriculum vitae for
these six nominees to the Bangkok secretariat.
All applicants are required to specify the institute at
which they hope to study, and must demonstrate
sufficient readiness to pursue more advanced study
in their proposed field (e.g., Painting, Sculpture,
or Graphic Arts). Please note that this scholarship
cannot be applied to study programs in an applicant's
home country. The applications and curriculum vitae
of the six candidates must arrive at the secretariat
by the 30th of September, 2006.
2. The secretariat will set up a committee to make
the final selection of the scholarship recipients.
The committee will include:
A: A representative from the RF
B: A representative from the administrator
C: A representative from the institute(s) to which
the candidates are applying
3. Copies of the 6 applications will be posted to
the committee, which will then award three scholarships,
selecting one applicant from each pair of candidates
fielded by the three nominating institutions.
While intellectual distinction is necessary, it is not
a sufficient qualification for election to one of these
MFA scholarships. The selection process seeks
candidates who show desirable qualities of mind and
of personality, because the recipients will be returning
to serve in their home institutes after graduation.
4. The results will be announced by the 30th of November
All the institutes and applicants involved will be
notified by post in official letters from the secretariat.
5. As the secretariat will be providing the air tickets,
the scholarship recipients should clarify
the arrangements with the secretariat two months
prior to their preferred travel dates.
6. The secretariat will transfer tuition fees directly to
the institutes providing the MFA programs.
7. As soon as the recipients arrive in Thailand or Vietnam,
they should open a bank account and forward
the necessary details (e.g., bank name, branch name,
account name, and account number) both to
the secretariat and to the recipient’s home institution.
8. The secretariat will provide tuition for a two-month l
anguage course for each scholarship recipient, as well as
funding for two month’s living expenses prior to
the opening of the first term of MFA studies. Receipts
from language classes must be posted to the secretariat.
Failure to send a receipt will result in suspension of
the scholarship recipient’s next monthly stipend.
9. The secretariat will transfer each recipient's stipend
to the home institute(s) at the beginning of each
academic term.
