The recent year-end 2012 graduation for the Canadian International Matriculation Programme (CIMP) at Sunway College Kuala Lumpur showcased a number of outstanding students. Malaysian, Cherlyn Tong Ka Lyn emerged as a nominee for the Governor General’s Academic Medal for achieving an average of 98% in her marks which was the highest in her cohort. For this, she was also given the Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah Award. There will be another nominee for the award in June 2013 and out of the two nominees, the one with the higher average will receive the medal in the June 2013 CIMP graduation.
Cherlyn, who is awaiting replies from a few UK universities said, “The CIMP was a great experience. It gave us room and flexibility to pursue our diverse interests and tapped our potentials. The lecturers who were approachable and wonderful were integral to the experience. I was always able to turn to them for guidance. I’m really grateful for my time in CIMP.”
