JPA (Public Service Department) and MARA scholarships are the two most sought-after government scholarships in Malaysia — but they serve different purposes and come with different eligibility rules. JPA is open to all Malaysians with a civil service bond; MARA is specifically for Bumiputera students with a stronger focus on business and technical fields.
