ISKOLAR NG BAYAN

The application period for the Iskolar ng Bayan (INB) Program will open on 10 to 11 June 2026. Applicants who are in the top 10 of the graduating batch of a public Senior High School and who have not yet been offered a degree program may apply to a UP unit in the same region as their Senior High School or to UP Open University.

A certification from the school, signed by the Principal or School Head, indicating that the applicant is part of the Top 10 of the graduating batch must be uploaded to the portal during the application.

Results for the INB program application will be released on 17 June 2026. If you are offered a slot, please make sure to reply to the offer in the portal on or before 18 June 2026 at 11:59 PM. In some cases, the INB results may also be released at a later date.

Please note that if you apply for the INB program, you will no longer be able to participate in the first batch of general appeals. Additionally, should the results of your INB application only become available during or after the last round of general appeals, you will no longer have the opportunity to submit an appeal through the DIWA portal.

Applicants are strongly advised to ensure that they meet all eligibility requirements for the INB program before submitting an application. Once an INB application has been submitted, it cannot be withdrawn, and the applicant will no longer be eligible to participate in the first batch of the general appeals. On the other hand, applicants who have already submitted an appeal through the general appeals process but who wish to apply through the INB program instead may withdraw their appeal via the DIWA portal.

For further concerns regarding the INB program, please contact the UP Office of Student Development Services via email at [email protected] or [email protected], or through landline at (+632) 8981-8500 local 8778/8779, (+632) 8981-8778 or 8981-8779.
