At A Glance
- Eligible residents may apply for the scholarship program through QC eServices website.
The Quezon City government has begun accepting applications for the Quezon City Scholarship Program (QCSP) for the school year 2025-2026.
Applicants must be residents of Quezon City with a valid QCitizen ID and must not be under any scholarship program from local government units.
Eligible senior high school, college, and vocational education students may submit their applications through the QC eServices website.
Mayor Joy Belmonte said the city’s ongoing efforts are to democratize access to education.
“Investing in our students is investing in the future of our city. The growing number of our scholars proves our commitment to bridging the gaps in education and creating equal opportunities for all,” she said.
“Beyond academic support, our scholarship program empowers students to become active contributors to nation-building,” Mayor Belmonte added.
A total of 39,566 residents have benefited from the LGU’s scholarship program for School Year 2024–2025, and 17,422 scholars were supported following the passage of Ordinance No. SP-3283, S-2024 by the Quezon City Council.
The said ordinance broadened scholarship categories and increased financial aid and stipends for beneficiaries.
Aside from the tuition support and semestral stipends, scholars also receive access to mentorship programs and are encouraged to participate in leadership and community engagement activities organized by the city.
As of 2025, a total of 14,898 QCSP scholars have already graduated, many of whom are now in the fields of business, information technology, engineering, and education.
Belmonte has pledged to double the number of scholars by 2028, reinforcing Quezon City’s commitment to inclusive and progressive education.
Meanwhile, the city government also launched the QC Excel Scholarship that aims to nurture the city’s next generation of civic leaders. Incoming first-year college students taking priority courses, the QC Excel Scholarship seeks students with outstanding academic performance, demonstrated leadership experience, and a deep commitment to public service.
