Financial Aid Grants

Application

Applicants for scholarship must fill out a Scholarship/Financial Aid Questionnaire. This form must be secured and submitted together with the Application for Admission form. Application for scholarship does not influence in any way the decision concerning acceptance into the college. Scholarship applicants, therefore, should not wait for the decision on their application for admission before securing or submitting a scholarship application form.

With limited scholarship slots each year, the Committee on Admission and Aid makes its decision on each application after carefully examining the results of the Ateneo College Entrance Test (ACET) together with the academic record of the applicant, the family's finances and school recommendations.
