My “Timeline”
The first time I recall, having this “dream” of studying abroad
Graduated from high school, got accepted in Industrial Engineering ITB
Graduated from ITB, friends were going for UK, attended couple of “education forums”, and IBEC. Eventually I decided to work.
Did my first IELTS tests, made my first “motivational letter” for CHEVENING, and applied for TOTAL scholarship.
Attended EHEF, applied for TU DELFT, TWENTE, HERIOTT-WATT, UNIV. FLENSBURG, and EMN. Got accepted by TU DELFT, the rest were failed.
Received a rejection letter from EMN. Talked with school representative and alumni. Made an “appeal letter” and finally got accepted in EMN.Resigned from work and preparing for my departure.Applied for the BGF scholarship and failed.Applied for Beasiswa Unggulan and failed.Arrived in France.Applied for Beasiswa Unggulan again, and this time it worked!
Graduated MSc. From Ecole des Mines de Nantes, France4
