There seems not to be much info on Tun Tan Cheng Lock Foundation (Scholarship) on the net......so I'll try to post as much stuff I know about its application here. Just to help out the (many) clueless out there! :)
TTCLF seems to be very low profile as you can't find it being advertised in any newspapers or does it has its own website. I got to know that in order to get the application form, you'll need to WRITE to them with an enclosed self-addressed envelope to this address:
THE TRUSTEES
TUN TAN CHENG LOCK FOUNDATION (Company No. 41001 A)
P.O. BOX 13615
50816 KUALA LUMPUR
Once you've got it, fill it up and send them back before the closing date. Some of you may ask, "Since they don't publish any notice anywhere, then how the hell would I know the closing date??? When should I send the letter asking for the form???" I don't know too....but I suggest that you do so immediately after STPM results are out! I believe the offer is open concurrently with pre-U results.
Here are the conditions and procedure for application:
CONDITIONS
1. Applicants should be Malaysian citizens.
2. Applicants should possess good academic qualification.
3. Tun Tan Cheng Lock Foundation Undergraduate Awards are for needy students only.
4. Only undergraduates / prospective undergraduates reading for a first degree are eligible to apply.

May i ask that Tun Tan Cheng Lock is scolarship or Loan?
I can't give you an answer for that now cause I am still waiting for a reply from them. Apparently, all of my seniors who applied for it are granted scholarships! Somehow, printed on the application form, it says "Tun Tan Cheng Lock Scholarship / Loan".
So whether it is purely scholarship or loan to certain applicants, I really can't tell! Sorry.....
May I know what should we write to them regarding the scholarship? We need to write a formal letter right?
Hi Jiro, thank you for commenting.
The last time I wrote was a formal letter stating that I am interested in applying the scholarship. You would include a self-addressed envelope (with stamps on it, of course)together with your letter. The letter need not to be very long. It is just for them to send you the application form. Your empty envelope that is important! Not your letter!
Hope that answers your question..
Thank you very much!!! That solves my problem.
have you received your scholarship? how much izit?
i want to ask that tan cheng lock scholarship still have open for 2011 intaKE?

I am not affiliated with Tun Tan Cheng Lock scholarship. This post is just to provide information to people who are finding ways to apply for it. And that was how I did it. If you want to know more bout the scholarship, I suggest you call the hotline yourself. :)
