Cavite opens online registration for scholarship

The scholarship program of Cavite province will open its online registration on Aug. 14.

TRECE MARTIRES CITY, Cavite - The provincial government of Cavite announced that its online registration for the Provincial Scholarship Program (PSP) will open from Aug. 14 to Sept. 8 for interested college students who are currently enrolled.

All qualified students from the province will be evaluated according to their grades and receive a scholarship grant of Php5,000 per semester under the program.

The PSP is one of Governor Jesus Crispin Remulla’s pro-poor programs to support Caviteño students “who are academically qualified but whose families are incapable of supporting their education,” said PSP secretariat chair Alvin Mojica.

“We believe that if they are able to continue their college education, equip themselves academically and become productive citizen of our province, they will be our active partners in maintaining the Cavite status as first class, world class,” said Mojica.

Interested applicants must submit a letter addressed to Governor Remulla; a copy of registration form for current semester/trimester (original must be presented for verification); and original certificate of grades from the previous semester/trimester duly signed by the university/college registrar - with dry seal if applicable.



The scholarship committee said photocopy of class cards will not be accepted as a supporting document.

Applicants must also present a copy of his/her birth certificate (NSO-authenticated or Local Civil Registry copy), original certificate of indigency from barangay or Municipal/City Social Welfare Office;

Original barangay clearance with dry seal (if applicable) and signature of Punong Barangay and a photocopy of valid ID (school ID duly countersigned for the present semester/trimester OR any government-issued ID).

Interested applicants are advised to check the PSP website (http://www.cavite.gov.ph/psp) for announcements.
