Description
Summary:Biasiswa Kecil Persekutuan is one of initiative by the Malaysia Government to help ambitious secondary school students reach their fullest potential. Currently, the decision to determine qualified students to receive scholarship in secondary school has been conducted manually. Unfair selection may occur due to the huge number of applicants and also limited quota, as well as the various criteria used in the selection process. Therefore, this research adopts the Neutrosophic Analytic Hierarchy Process (NAHP) to construct a student scholarship selection model where three criteria has been considered which are academic performance, family background and cocurriculum activities. The weight of each criteria and sub-criteria will be calculated using NAHP. The results show that NAHP can be used to rank the most suitable student to receive scholarship in descending order.
