Can I transfer to Ateneo Senior High School for Grade 12?

Ateneo offers classes that are unique only to Ateneo de Davao University. These classes are called Ateneo vision driven subjects and are given from the first semester of Grade 11 up until the second semester of Grade 12. Students who have started taking Grade 11 in another senior high school will not be able to transfer to Ateneo to take Grade 12 due to the fact that having a student transfer to Ateneo SHS will incur a curriculum mismatch. The student may be allowed to enroll in Ateneo if he/she agrees to take Grade 11 again.

What kind of scholarships are available to your applicants?

Ateneo SHS has two (2) types of scholarships: the Top 500 scholarship and the GIA scholarship (Financial Assistance).

The Top 500 scholarship is given only to applicants from public junior high schools who earned high ratings at the Ateneo Senior High Qualifying Exam for Top 500 (ASHQET).

The GIA scholarship is a financial-assistance type of scholarship that is open to applicants from private junior high schools and those from public junior high schools who were not able to get the Top 500 scholarship grant.

Who are qualified to apply for the Top 500 Scholarship?

• Those who qualified for the Ateneo Senior High Qualifying Exam for Top 500 (ASHQET500)
• The average grade for each subject must be at least 90%, and the general average must not be lower than 92%.
• The family’s annual income must not exceed Php 250,000.

• Grade 10 Academic background (Average grade of each subject must be at least 90%, and the general average must not be lower than 92%).

Who are qualified to apply for the GIA Scholarship Program?
