Guide on CHED Scholarship Stipends for HEIs, SUCs, and LUC scholars
CHED SCHOLARSHIP STIPENDS – Here is a guide on how much scholars may receive under the scholarhips offered by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).
One of the state institutions that offer scholarships is the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). In fact, there are a lot of Filipino graduates who managed to finish college despite their financial situation in life with the help of CHED.
Under the program, different CHED scholarship stipends have been set depending on certain factors such as if the student is enrolled under a full PESFA, half PESFA, full SSP, and half SSP.
Who are qualified to apply for a scholarship to CHED? To be eligible, the student applicant must be:
- a Filipino citizen
- Graduating high school student or high school graduate with a general average General Weighted Average (GWA)
- For Full State Scholarship Program (FSSP) and Full Private Education Student Financial Assistance (FPESPA), GWA must be 96% or above.
- For Half-SSP and Half-PESPA, GWA must be 93% but not more than 95%.
- Must have a combined annual gross income of parents/guardian which does not exceed Four Hundred Thousand Pesos (PhP 400,000), or in cases where the income exceeds PhP 400,000 an applicant must present written certification or medical findings of illness of a family member, or school certifications of two or more dependents enrolled in college;
