PCAFPD Scholarship Applications General Scholarship Information

We are no longer accepting applications for the 2023-2024 school year. Please check back in June for the application period of the 2024- 2025 academic school year.

The PCAFPD scholarship program is designed to provide opportunities for Filipinos to further their education and contribute to the development of the Philippines. The program is funded primarily by former Peace Corps Volunteers and Filipinos who support the program as a way to further Philippine development.

Your application should demonstrate this capacity and commitment. This scholarship program is NOT intended for students who wish to seek work overseas after graduation.

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of
