DOH warns vs fake scholarship program posts

MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Health (DOH) yesterday cautioned the public against fake social media posts advertising DOH scholarship programs.

In an advisory, the DOH said it is not offering any scholarship program, contrary to claims made by these fake Facebook pages.

“The DOH clarifies that the Pre-Service Scholarship Program is no longer accepting new scholars as of academic year 2024-2025,” the DOH said.

“Currently, the scholarships are being transitioned to the Commission on Higher Education, which has the mandate of education assistance and support,” it added.
