/ 11 April 2021

THE UNIVERSITY of Science and Technology Southern Philippines distributed cash stipend and book allowance to 189 students.

Students from its campus in Panaon, Misamis Occidental received P20,000 each as financial assistance for the second semester of Academic Year 2020-2021.

The school said the distribution is in line with the implementation of the Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Law which grants subsidies to poor students.

“The TES grant-in-aid program was made available even amid the outbreak of Covid19 to help students pay for their existing school fees and attend classes through the University’s Flexible Learning Program,” USTP said on its website on Thursday.

The distribution was held last March 18, 19, 29, and 30.

Meanwhile, USTP also distributed tablets to students in need, to help them cope with distance learning amid the Covid19 pandemic.
