The Lyceum of the Philippines University-Batangas (LPU-B) continues to be a vital partner in the pursuit of quality education for Filipino students, thanks to its inclusion in the government’s Tulong Dunong Program (TDP). The TDP, under the Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Act (UAQTEA), or Republic Act No. 10931, has been pivotal in providing financial assistance to qualified students pursuing higher education at CHED-recognized institutions such as Private Higher Education Institutions (PHEIs), State Universities and Colleges (SUCs), and Local Universities and Colleges (LUCs).

The program aims to lessen the financial challenges faced by students by providing them with Php 7,500 per semester to help cover tuition fees, school expenses, and living costs. This financial aid is crucial for making education more accessible, allowing students to focus on their studies without the burden of overwhelming financial pressures.
In a display of continued commitment to higher education, the Office of Senator Bong Go allocated a significant number of scholarship slots to LPU-B. Last academic year, 431 slots were provided, and for the current year, an additional 255 slots have been granted, bringing the total number of TDP scholarship slots to 680.
This remarkable initiative is set to provide substantial benefits to the students of LPU-B, many of whom come from local communities in need of financial assistance. With this continued support, these students are given the opportunity to pursue their academic and professional goals, contributing to their personal growth and the development of the nation.


In recognition of the importance of this support, Senator Go was welcomed as the guest speaker during LPU-B’s Awards Convocation 2024 on January 24, 2025. His presence at the event underscored his dedication to improving the lives of Filipinos, particularly through education.
LPU-Batangas, together with the TDP, continues to help make higher education a reality for countless students, ensuring that opportunities for success are not limited by financial constraints. With this ongoing partnership, the future remains bright for students striving to achieve their dreams.
