TAGUIG CITY
Lifeline Assistance for Neighbours In-need

Scholarship Program
Revised December 2014
Mayor Ma. Laarni Cayetano committed that under her leadership, all Taguigeos are
special and all should be given fair opportunity to study, find work, and have a
brighter future. (Lahat ng Taguigeno ay VIP at walang maiiwanan. Lahat may
oportunidad.) She also believes that education is a crucial key to social progress
and human development. Hence, the comprehensive Taguig City Scholarship
Program was established under the Lifeline Assistance for Neighbors In-need
(L.A.N.I.) Program.
Taguig Citys L.A.N.I. Scholarship Program was established under City Ordinance
Number 9, Series of 2011 and the issuance of the implementing guidelines under
EO 2011-11 with an initial budget of P100 Million. The Program was triggered by 3
key factors:
1) Statistics showing that in the Philippines, of every 100 pupils that enters
Grade 1, only around 65 finishes Grade 6, only 58 proceeds to high school,
with only 42 graduating. Of the high school graduates, only 23 will enter
college and only around 12 or 14 will eventually graduate. The Mayor wants
complete access to basic education, and to significantly improve both
the quantity and quality of our graduates, especially of our college
graduates;
2) A Taguig survey in 2009 showing that education and scholarship were
among the Top 7 concerns of the residents; and
3) The fact that Mayor Lani was a scholar and a working student in
college. Through this Program, she can reach out and provide scholarships to
thousands, who, some day may become the leaders of this City, and perhaps
the country.
BASIC QUALIFICATION CRITERIA FOR THE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM:
1. Bona fide resident of Taguig City for at least 3 years immediately
preceding the application. Must be a registered voter of the City if 18 years
or older, and with at least one of the parents also a registered voter of the
city.
2. Of good moral character both in paper and in deeds.
3. Determined to finish the course or pass the bar/board examination
4. Committed to love and serve Taguig City
DIFFERENT SCHOLARSHIP TYPES - Please see Table 1
MAINTAINING THE SCHOLARSHIP
- To maintain the scholarship, scholars must submit the application form and
required documents every semester. General weighted average (GWA) for the
duration of the scholarship covered should not be lower than 2.5, with no
grade of 5, dropped, unremoved 4, or incomplete, or these grades
equivalent, and must carry a load of at least 15 units per semester or its
equivalent per trimester.
For those with violations: 1st offense probation/warning; 2nd offense
