President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s “One Town, One Scholar” program is being implemented now. This program is dedicated for the youth who wanted to enter college but faced with financial problems.
One of the goals of the program is to ensure the college education of at least one bright and deserving but poor high school senior from each of the country’s 1,500 municipalities every year.
Period for application, screening and selection of grantees at the municipal town level is from March 1 to April 15, 2009. (ALA/PIA)
