General Policies and Guidelines for SSC Manila’s Scholarships and Grants
The SSC Manila Scholarships and Grants Program has the following general policies and guidelines for all types of scholarships and grants applicable for all scholars and grantees:
- As a general rule, no student may be granted more than one type of scholarship at any given time.
- In cases where a student may qualify for more than one type of scholarship given by SSC Manila, the student must choose to avail of only one type of scholarship ( e.g. sports, merit or financial assistance)
- A scholar who loses her scholarship will not be awarded the same scholarship or grant.
- For all scholars, failure to meet the required grade requirements would mean that, she/he will automatically lose the scholarship, and may not
re-apply nor be allowed to apply in any of the scholarships offered by the school, unless recommended and approved by the President’s Council. - Shifting to another program, withdrawing a course under her/his program automatically disqualifies one from renewing her/his scholarship. In case a scholar withdraws at the middle of the school year or semester, she/he is obliged to pay the amount that was granted as financial aid before she/he can get a clearance.
- Â A scholar who does not re-enroll for a school year or semester or files for a leave of absence (LOA) automatically loses her/his scholarship.
- Grantees who are required to render service hours but fail to complete the required hours within the prescribed period for their level
(semestral for College, school year for HS), will be automatically removed from the program. - The awarding of financial grants depends upon the availability of funds and/or slots thus applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
- Â Applications with incomplete documents will not be processed until all requirements have been submitted.
- Submission of application form and required documents beyond the set deadline will no longer be accepted unless recommended and approved by the School President.
-  Investigation of the grantee’s lifestyle will be conducted from time to time to ensure the validity of financial status that merited the granting
of the financial assistance. - St. Scholastica’s College Manila reserves the right to modify, amend or withdraw any amount of scholarships, tuition grant/discount due to
insufficient funds or if a student fails to meet the conditions of the scholarships/grants. - St. Scholastica’s College Manila is under no obligation to grant scholarships or financial aid to any student or individual.
