FYSEP has around 800,000 scholarship slots; StuFAP has approximately 100,000 slots (because to a cap on the number of scholars per faculty/athletic department). It will be provided nationwide to students in the top 10% of their high school graduating classes and below.

Following semesters of enrollment for FYSEP students are covered by local governments (LGUs); following semesters of enrollment for StuFAP scholars enrolled in State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) are covered by the national government (i.e., national internal revenue allotment); and following semesters of enrollment in private schools are covered by the scholars themselves.

CHED is willing to provide graduate scholarships at both public and non-profit private colleges (i.e., NGOs, NPOs). The scholar must not be in default on any CHED financial obligation, have no pending administrative or criminal case against him, otherwise eligible for the scholarship, and meet with the standards specified by each course/institution in which he will study or teach.

You may apply for the scholarship for each year of your undergraduate studies as long as you meet all of CHED standards.

Scholars should teach in approved SUCs/CHEd Institutes for at least four years after graduation or until they pass the licensure examinations for their chosen courses, whichever comes first.

You will be eligible for the following benefits: If you pass your licensure exam with flying colors, you will receive a 20% tuition fee discount; the scholarship grant will cover tuition and other fees throughout your summer studies.

Furthermore, an incentive is provided for board topnotchers of CHED scholars as follows:
First-year students receive a one-hundred percent (100%) reduction on miscellaneous fees. – A 70% discount on miscellaneous fees for second-year students; a 50% discount on miscellaneous fees for third-year students. – A thirty percent (30%) discount on miscellaneous fees is given to fourth-year students.

No, there is no such provision. It will be determined by school policy or a collective bargaining agreement (CBA). You might inquire about your school’s policies during the hiring process. If there is no CBA, it will be at the discretion of the school.

Yes, you can receive your scholarship grant regardless of your exam performance, as long as you pass the exam and meet all other CHED conditions.

Scholars who fail to comply with or meet any of the scholarship conditions shall be deemed ineligible and their scholarships will be forfeited/canceled accordingly.

Yes, depending on the course you take, an interview may be required. For courses requiring interviews, you can make an appointment at our partner universities for this reason. No, otherwise. (For example, BS Information Technology

“NOT YET APPROVED” is the CHED Scholar status. Remember to provide a valid email address when applying online; otherwise, you will not receive an automated email confirming your acceptance or denial.

If you are still enrolled at SUC’s: Your grades (past semesters) If you are already working in the Government: Income Tax Return (ITR), job contract, appointment paperwork (if employed), business permission (if self-employed). If your company is still on the process for applying for permit/license has not yet started operation: Confirmation of your intention to start your own business or company. If you are employed but you don’t get salary yet: Employer certification regarding proposed employee hiring, if any; or Board resolution on intention to hire scholars (if company is applying for permit/license).

CHED StuFAPs (SCHOLARSHIPS FOR TEACHING/FACULTY AFFAIR PERSONNEL) aims to provide scholarship funds to SUC/Ched professors who are promoted, hired, and assigned in the academic community. It is a stimulus package for both teaching and non-teaching professionals that includes partial tuition fee assistance and a teaching allowance.

No, because scholars must have passed the board exams in order to be appointed to SUCs. Because entrance requirements for scholarship grants are dependent on the PRC list of eligibilities, you cannot apply in advance since it’s not yet certain that you will pass the board exam. You can, however, submit a Certification of Eligibility from your dean’s office stating that you passed the Licensure Test and met all other admission requirements to enroll at their university.

Unfortunately, CHED does not recognize graduates from private schools.

Tax period has nothing to do with scholarship grant. Tax forms are used for pay deduction while employed or for getting a business permit when self-employed.

The location of your school doesn’t really determine which area you belong to. You must be a domicile of the region in which you apply. If you are a scholarship applicant, your choice of university will be determined by your domicile, which is where you have lived the most in the last ten (10) years; if self-sponsored, it will be the location of your primary client or where your company has its main office; and if an employee, it will be at the primary worksite (office of the client or main office). A single domicile may be claimed. If you do not have a clear primary domicile, your present address will be used.

CHED scholarship does not yet cover K-12 education. Applicants must therefore be enrolled in a Bachelor’s degree program for the current academic year.

Yes, but employees must present two copies of their credentials: one for DepEd validation and another for Ched evaluation. To avoid processing delays, employees must confirm that both copies are complete with all documentary requirements before submitting them. Simply follow the same instructions as if you were applying online. Similarly, it is preferable to apply while still in school because the process takes time and is more advantageous to you than while you are employed.

No, graduates from private schools are not considered scholars for this program because CHED policy does not yet cover them. Only individuals who applied for and were offered scholarships through the PRC Scholarship Program but did not take use of them would be considered, providing they passed the board test in their particular discipline.

To apply, applicants must be at least 18 years old before June 30, 2023.

It would be preferable if you could submit a Certificate of Waiver from DepEd so that we can handle your request as soon as possible. Simply follow the same steps as if you were applying online. But, you can still apply if your birthdate is on or before May 20, 2023, even if you will turn 22 before the application deadline of June 30, 2023.
