The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) is allocating P56 million to sustain scholarships for over 500 medical technology and pharmacy students. These funds, sourced from the Higher Education Development Fund, will cover financial assistance through the first semester of the upcoming academic year. The initiative ensures continued support for students pursuing critical healthcare professions. CHED’s move addresses potential disruptions to students' education due to financial constraints. This investment aims to bolster the pipeline of qualified professionals in the medical field. By maintaining these scholarships, CHED supports access to higher education and contributes to the country’s healthcare workforce. The funding will enable current scholars to continue their studies uninterrupted.
