Our graduates have spread to colleges and universities in the following countries: United States, Canada, Japan, Holland, UK, Italy, Australia, Singapore and Malaysia. Several are now studying closer to home in universities in Java, Indonesia.
In Bekasi city the President University teaches solely in English to international standards. They have 70% of their student body from Indonesia and 30% from overseas.
This university also provides scholarships to gifted students from across Indonesia. For the next academic year, 2008/9, this university is offering different levels of scholarships. The highest level is a full scholarship worth 300 million rupiah! Only 5 of these full scholarships are available every year AND our graduating class 12 student Ade Tifany Fadjar has won one of these full scholarships!
Tifany is an excellent academic student but also very diligent. Her full scholarship will cover all her costs until she finishes her degree. Tifany attended her National Exams on 22nd – 24th April 2008 and she is also currently sitting her Advanced Level International Cambridge Certificate exams. Although the final passing marks have not been announced yet, she has already been accepted in this university via placement tests which were held at Sanur Bali Beach Hotel on 10th May 2008, in Math and English. Tifany has chosen to enter the Economics Department; she will specialise in International Business Management but also study Marketing, Banking and Finance, Hotel and Tourism and Human Resources.
Many thanks must go to our high school counsellor Ibu Ivy who encouraged Tifany to apply for this scholarship. Thank you Ibu Ivy! We are very proud and happy that Tifany has done so well by winning such a good scholarship for her future study.
CONGRATULATIONS TIFANY!
Congratulations to Molly Browne who recently graduated from our high school. She has been accepted on to a degree course in Graphic Design at the London College of Communication in the UK. Molly followed the Cambridge IGCSE and AS/A level courses and her recent double A award at Cambridge A level Art and Design certainly helped secure her place. Molly has the potential to be a fine artist in her future.
Vina (Graduate 2005) is studying International Business in Haarleem, Netherlands. She remembers with fondness the environment surrounding our school and says that “it gave her insight into her understanding of nature.” She remembers working for many hours on her Business Studies project with Pak Candra and, using the same methodology, she was delighted to receive a top A award in her university research project.
Bulan (2006) is also studying in Holland in Niuewegen, Utrecht on a communications course. She says that using the skills she gained in Economics at Dyatmika, she motivated her group to achieve an A for their class project. She also says that Dyatmika helped her develop her talents as a writer and because of the close relationship with Dyatmika staff, she feels much more confident than her classmates ‘who are afraid to stand up and present or write reports for projects.’ She also says that Dyatmika helped her become a multi-tasker as she was involved in OSIS, the Yearbook and studying a national and international curriculum.
Gupa (2005) is attending the prestigious Glion Institute of Higher Education in Montreax, Switzerland, one of the top three hospitality institutes in the world.
