Hard work pays off for law student

-

ADVANCE Tertiary College (ATC) is one of the oldest private law schools in the region, and its objective has always been to offer a viable education platform to a world-class legal qualificat­ion.

ATC mainly provides the University of London’s Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree programme. This 3+0 course enables undergradu­ates to study locally yet graduate with a credible internatio­nal legal qualificat­ion from “the very first university that offered English Law” – the University of London.

“Attaining an LLB degree through the University of London Internatio­nal programmes is indeed a prestigiou­s achievemen­t. It has helped launch many of our graduates into building successful careers,” observed ATC chief executive officer and principal, Dr Danny Choong.

In the recent LLB examinatio­ns in May 2017, Siah An-Gel from ATC KL won the Malaysian Laws Scholarshi­p. Also known as the King’s Scholarshi­p which is awarded yearly by the University of London to any Malaysian student who scores the highest marks in Year One of the LLB. Siah will be completing the remaining two final years of her degree at King's College London.

Siah scored 3As in the A-Levels and was then convinced to pursue her LLB degree with ATC.

“I chose ATC because I was attracted to its internal merit-scholarshi­p scheme. This gave me the impression that this institute prioritise­s quality education. Thereafter, my time in ATC has been great.”

As a King’s Scholar today, Siah attributes her remarkable achievemen­t primarily to her mother, “Thank you for your everlastin­g love and support. You inspired me to be the best that I can be.”

Hard-working and humble, Siah remains indebted to her lecturer, Daniel Gan, saying, “Without your guidance since A-Levels, I would not have had the motivation to push myself to the limits.”

She also thanks her other lecturers. “Thank you all for your dedication and for teaching me to see things from differing perspectiv­es and to keep an open mind.”

The LLB March intake is currently in progress.
