Among all Ateneo schools in the country, the Ateneo de Naga University has the highest percentage of scholarships being maintained.  As of School Year ’06-’07, scholarship rate is 21.26% for the College and 36.69% for the High School.  Scholarship Grants are sourced from the Government, Annual Donations, Endowment funds and University Budget. However, despite this percentage of scholarship grants, there are still many scholarship applicants who are not that fortunate enough to be given a scholarship.  For this first semester of school year ’07-’08, a total of 209 students from the college alone, applied for a scholarship  and only 67 were fortunate enough to be given grants.
