Scholarships

The Fisher Valley College offers scholarships to financially-challenged yet deserving students. The following is a list of available scholarships.

1. SEEDS Scholarship

This scholarship has been designed for those who cannot afford to pay their tuition fees but really want to pursue college education. Thanks to Jollibee Foods Corporation because this ever growing food chain in the country knows well what a corporate social responsibility is. Through this program, the student can enroll at The Fisher Valley College without paying the tuition fees and miscellaneous expenses from your own pocket. Jollibee will pay the fees for you! Of course, your part in this program is to work at any nearby Jollibee store to compensate the amount they will pay for you. You also need to maintain a certain grade in order for you to be retained in the program. Jollibee does not want you to get low grades at school. 

For further information on this scholarship, contact The College Offices of The Fisher Valley College C5 Annex Campus at Bgy. Pinagsama, Taguig City and at The Fisher Valley College Main Campus, Hagonoy, Taguig City. 

2. Mayor Ma. Laarni “Lani” Cayetano Scholarship

This is the newest addition to the scholarship grant of the college. Starting 1st Semester, A.Y. 2011-2012, the City Government of Taguig, through the Office of the City Mayor, will be offering scholarships to deserving students. When I attended the Graduation Ceremony of R. Papa High School-Main where Mayor Lani was the guest speaker, she mentioned that from P5 million budget for education during the past administration, she was able to increase it to P100 million. Screening will start on May 9, 2011 onwards. Contact the college offices for more information.

Midterm Exam Schedule for Summer Classes

Holiday today (Labor Day)

May 1 marks Labor Day in the Philippines. As per Proclamation No. 84, it is a regular holiday, meaning, no classes will be held in all schools (for trimestral and summer classes) and no work of course! If the management requests the employees to report to work, the employees should get a double pay.

If you ask whether or not President Aquino moves Labor Day to May 2 (Monday), the answer is NO. He is unlike his predecessor who implemented the so-called Holiday Economics. 

May 1 is also the International Workers' Day where labor movements from around the world celebrate it. 

Enjoy the weekend!
