Increasing tuition fees in Malaysia hinder access to higher education for low-income students. FundMyStudy, a smartphone application, personalises scholarship searches and applications to address this issue. Using a user-centered design, it offers deadline notifications, multilingual support, and an application tracker, and AI-powered matching. Unlike conventional platforms, it provides an interactive, user-friendly interface built with Figma, enhancing usability and visual appeal. FundMyStudy improves financial decision-making and reduces missed opportunities by centralizing scholarship information and offering real-time support. Early prototype feedback highlights its potential to boost user engagement, accessibility, and application success rates. Overall, FundMyStudy can play a vital role in advancing educational equity in Malaysia.
