Vaugirard Scholarship Program
What is the Vaugirard Scholarship Program?
The scholarship program is named after Vaugirard, France, the location where St. John Baptist de La Salle founded his first novitiate. The house in Vaugirard became a refuge and a place where the Christian Brothers deepen their spirituality, strengthen their relationships through fellowship and prayer, and renew the zeal to continue the mission of providing free education for all.
As an important resource of the nation, 开元真人continuously nurtures a聽 community of distinguished scholars. This scholarship program aims to create a positive social聽 transformation in the grantees.聽
Beginning AY 2012-2013, the University provides fifty (50) new scholarship slots聽 every year exclusively for students who graduated from Philippine public/science high schools. This scholarship program offers students the chance to access a Lasallian education across various baccalaureate programs at De La Salle University.聽
The application fee for all graduating public secondary school students is free. However, applicants must secure an examination permit which can be obtained upon submission of admission requirements.
Scholars enrolled under the Human Biology (HUM-BIO) program of the College of Science are awarded full scholarships during their first two years of residency in 开元真人.聽 The Grant will not cover payment of tuition and fees when they transfer to the De La Salle Medical Health and Sciences Institute (DLSM-HSI) campus for the continuation of their medical degree.
Vaugirard scholars who are enrolled in baccalaureate-master鈥檚 or BSMS programs will enjoy the benefit of the scholarship until they finish the program provided it is within the duration indicated in the curriculum checklist.
What are the benefits of a Vaugirard Scholar?

Other benefits include advance enrollment privilege, graduation fee incentives, alumni fee membership incentives, Latin Honors incentives, and exchange program benefit,聽 which ensures that scholars participating in exchange programs can continue to receive scholarship coverage, provided they meet the necessary requirements and comply with the regulations set by the Office of Admissions and Scholarships.
