Scholarships

Overview

The Philippine College of Criminology scholarship program is designed to recognize the academic, co-curricular, and extra-curricular achievements of PCCR students. Scholarship candidates are selected from the pool of applicants. Eligibility in no way a guarantees to award. These scholarships are based upon both merit and demonstrated financial needs.  Both factors are essential in the awarding of institutional aid.

For some students, a merit award will perfectly match their accomplishments. Others will find a variety of ways (a combination of merit-based, and need-based awards) to make the PCCR education affordable. 

Institutional scholarships and grants are available to assist students with their direct cost of education. The direct cost includes tuition fees and miscellaneous expenses. However, these awards are not designed for students to make a financial profit.

To use limited resources to support the needs of all students, PCCR reserves the right to replace institutional aid with other sources in the same amount. Endowed and non-endowed scholarship awards will be used to support the general institutional scholarship pool. PCCR reserves the right to adjust certain grants based on the availability of funds.
