General Guidelines

De La Salle University provides financial assistance to students who meet specific criteria for eligibility.

Only applicants who qualify for admission can apply and submit their scholarship requirements for evaluation.

The selection of grantees is done by the University Scholarship Committee based on the following factors/criteria:

  • Financial Need. Only those whose annual family income is PhP 700,000 and below will be considered.
  • Academic Competence. The Committee will take into consideration the applicant’s high school academic records.

Application and processing of applications will begin after the list of accepted first year college applicants has been officially released by the Office of Admissions and Scholarships (OAS). Please note that admission to the University does not necessarily guarantee that financial assistance will be given to the applicant. The number of scholarship slots is limited per college and depends on the availability of University funds.

Scholarship awards offer varying levels of coverage, including 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%, with no additional allowances provided. The St. La Salle Financial Assistance Grant covers tuition and fees only.

Financial assistance can only be given to one grantee per family.

Once awarded, the grants are renewable every trimester, provided that the grantee has met all scholarship retention requirements as stipulated in the Scholarship Guidelines. Grantees are required to meet certain academic standards and to abide by the policies prescribed by the OAS.
