   Please note that once you are awarded the scholarship, the confirmation fee of P10,000 is waived once we release the scholarship results on July 15, 2021 (Saturday).

For those who will be awarded a partial scholarship (i.e. 25%, 50%, and 75%TF), the 10,000 confirmation fee will be deducted in your Term 1 AY 2020–21 tuition fees/assessment. It is at your discretion to pay for the confirmation fee prior to the result of scholarship to reserve your slot in the university or wait for the result of scholarship.

7. Is there a separate process for scholars who will confirm and enroll?
   For confirmation, scholars will follow the same process for the regular students. For enrollment, partial scholars must ensure that they secure their COS before they pay their remaining balance. For full scholars, the COS must also be secured together with the Enrollment Assessment Form.
   A Reference Number that represents the scholarship coverage will be sent to all scholars before the start of classes. The Reference Number will be used in activating their student accounts.
