MANILA, Philippines – The Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) is expected to release soon the results of scholarship exam for academic year AY 2025-2026. View here the list of qualifiers (passers).
The new set of scholars are beneficiaries of the Education for Development Scholarship Program (EDSP) and Congressional Migrant Workers Scholarship Program (CMWSP).
The EDSP is OWWA's competitive educational assistance program where the dependents of qualified member-OFWs of OWWA vie for a slot by passing the annual qualifying examination conducted by the Department of Science and Technology-Science Education Institute (DOST-SEI). Only the top 400 passers are considered for entry as freshmen; 600 slots are for those who are already enrolled in college.
The examination was held on April 5 and 6 across 215 testing centers nationwide.

The EDSP is one of the regular programs of OWWA where the qualified dependent of the active member-OFW could take any four- or five-year course leading to a college degree. An allowance of P60,000 per school year is given to an EDSP scholar, along with trainings and other learning enhancement activities.
Meanwhile, the CMWSP is a scholarship program extended to deserving migrant workers and/or their immediate dependents who intend to pursue courses in the priority fields in Science & Technology in the amount of P60,120.00/year.
Also, OWWA will announce the new batch of scholars under the Congressional Migrant Workers Scholarship Program (CMWSP). Although it follows the same guidelines with the EDSP in terms of passing the qualifying exam of the DOST and in the amount of benefit at P60,120.00/year, the CMWSP scholar however, could be the OFW him/herself or his/her qualified dependent. More importantly, the CMWSP scholar may only take science and technology courses.
