Scholarships ...

This had been a very big help to every students out there who are financially deprived. Well, not just to the students but also to the parents who wants their children to finish their studies. Apparently, not every parents has the extent capabilities to do so. And, that's when the benefits of having a scholarship/s comes in.

As an academic scholar, what are the benefits that we can get? I, as a scholar myself, had been receiving a lot of advantages along the way. Here are some of them:

1. Financial assistance.

2. Work assistance. Since I am a scholar under a private company (Natasha Incorporation), we can ask for the assistance from the Director or President if we wanted to work and they may grant it through hiring us in their nearest branch within our location.

3. Clothing benefits. Aside from the PhP 20,000.00 (380.63 USD) and reading materials every semesters, we'll have clothing benefits to receive too. These are from clothes to pants to shoes and bags. But as pandemic happens, it was cancelled as they can't transport it "daw." Glad that we'll have it again this semester.

4. Additional inspiration and motivation to do more better in my studies. Any failing grades or remarks will be avoided to have as we should maintain our grades and stand to the scholarship program.

Still remember how many scholarships do I have? Is it 1 or 2 or 3? Oh, it's more than that. As of now, I'm enjoying 4 scholarship grants. Yes, four! As in, F-O-U-R. What are they? Okay, I'll do some recap of it.

1. Scholarship under a private company (Natasha Inc.);

2. City Government Scholarship Program;

3. Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) Scholarship Assistance; and

4. Academic Scholarship.

In order for me to continuously enjoy the benefits and all, I need to maintain my grades and stand. Coz as I got to maintained them, my scholarship grants won't be at risk. Among the four of them, two should be renewed every semesters and here they are.

Ps. I already published an article about this topic but here's the updated one.

Previous article: Securing My Scholarships

City Government Scholarship Program

This scholarship was intended for the citizens and voters of our city. In fact, I also wants to help @kingofreview to be one of us but they happened to be not accepting applicants this semester. And, I don't know why.

By 02.08.2022, I got to renew this scholarship thru submitting the requirements in the PESO Office located in the municipal hall proper.

And I was so shocked that in just a matter of more than a month after the renewal process, I already got my allowance. It was PhP 500.00 ($9.52) every month or 2500 pesos ($47.58) per semester. But, ackkk! I received an addition 500 pesos and had a total allowance of PHP 3000.00 by 03.21.22. Well, the running politicians are really doing their best ey. But, where's that $57.25 by now? I shared it in this article. Feel free to check it, anytime.

VBBSP (Natasha Inc.) Scholarship Program

Around 02.06.2022, I submitted my COR (first semester), COG (second semester), and a certification for my IP (In-Progress) remark for the renewal. But I need to do another renewal as I must submit an appeal letter on or before 03.19.2022, wherein our OIC informed us through email by 03.15.22.

Since I was so occupied with such errands and tasks, I was just able to do it by 03.17.22 and glad to sent it too within that day. And, tadaaa! My main and biggest scholarship is now secured. Well, not that totally secured as the Dean of Office of Admissions and the company's Director will still review it.

But still, this "acknowledge" from our OIC's reply is such a big relief to me. 💛

And should I now say, "Hello, PhP 20K in a few weeks?" LOL!

The other two scholarships of mine are non-renewable. Meaning to say, I only need to maintain my grades in the next semesters to secure it.

Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) Scholarship Assistance

How much am I getting in here? It's PhP 2000.00 (38.06 USD) every Academic Year. Since it was just an assistance, it was fixed to that amount and wasn't given by "every semester" but in the whole year. And, we first claimed it by last 09.25.2021. Yes, that's my birthday.

Our maintaining GWA (General Weighted Average) is 2.00. Well, not officially but we should not allow ourselves to have it at 3.00 or we'll be doomed. Supposedly, we're scheduled to claim our yearly allowance by April-May. But since there'll be an election ban, we can have it between June to July "daw". Baka mabatas pa kami at masabihan na nagpapabayad ng boto. Which can possibly happen naman talaga~ dami pa namang Marites here. XD

Academic Scholarship

Ever since by the second semester of AY 2019-2020, I've been an Academic Scholar. Started as College Scholar (CS) to University Scholar (US) then back to CS by 2nd semester AY 2020-2021 and until last semester.

As a College Scholar, I'm receiving PhP 2800.00 ($53.29) and 6400 pesos ($121.80) as US. That's for acquiring 23 units per semester and can go down if our units decreased. And this will be the last chance for me to be an Academic Scholar coz starting next AY, my units will be only around 10. Not enough for the grant~ but its okay, I enjoyed the time-being of being one of the lucky students to have this opportunity.

Hope that I could be an scholar until the moment I graduate and finish up my college degree. Can I? Of course, I can and I will. To all the scholars out there, we aren't just a student but we're more than that. It may be another responsibility for us to carry, but we can do this. We had started it already, so might as well finish it up. 💙

That's will be all for today's article. Thank you for dropping by, ciao! :*
