How the Scholarships Are Awarded
UST says competitive scholarships are intended to reward academic excellence while widening access to university study. Candidates were assessed through selection examinations organised according to their intended field of study.
Medical applicants were tested in science-related subjects, while engineering and other applicants followed assessment combinations relevant to their academic track.
Full and Partial Funding
The university states that it provides two full scholarships in each participating specialization: one allocated to male students and one to female students. Candidates who do not secure a full award may still qualify for partial scholarships or tuition discounts, with some reductions reaching 50%.
What Applicants Should Do
Candidates should check scholarship results and award conditions through official UST channels. Any published list should be checked carefully for the programme, scholarship level and admission conditions attached to the award.
Because publicly accessible UST material currently verifies the scholarship structure but not a total of 52 awarded scholarships, applicants and publishers should avoid presenting that number as confirmed unless it appears in a subsequent official university result notice.
