At the start of the school year, the Scholarships Committee provides information on the conditions, requirements, and the process to apply for the Program's aid, which is represented as discounts on tuition or the cafeteria for the following school year. To participate in the Program, girls and boys must maintain excellent academic performance and social behavior, and with their families they must demonstrate compliance with the norms and the institutional values. The benefit is granted for one year, but can be lost at any time for non-compliance with any of the Program's conditions.
