STUDENTS from the Nueva Vizcaya State University have received their scholarship grants from the provincial government, the university said.

NVSU said that 75 students received P12,500 each.

School officials and the staff of Governor Carlos Padilla led the distribution of the cash incentive at the NVSU Convention Center.

The money came from the provincial government’s “Sagut” program which will give scholars P5,000 allowance and P2,500 incentive for clothing and books monthly.

The program was institutionalized under the Ordinance No. 2017-140 and is being led by the Provincial Employment Services Division.

NVSU and the provincial government of Nueva Vizcaya initially signed a pact for the scholarship program.
