What Is ELYU Iskolar?
ELYU Iskolar is the Provincial Government of La Union’s educational assistance and scholarship program, run through the Provincial Capitol in San Fernando City. Its purpose is to help indigent families in the province send their children to school, covering both senior high school and college-level applicants.
Who It’s For
ELYU Iskolar targets students from La Union families with limited financial means. As with most LGU scholarship programs, applicants are generally expected to be La Union residents enrolled in (or admitted to) a recognized school, though the province updates its specific income and residency thresholds each application cycle.
How to Apply
- Watch the official La Union provincial government channels (launion.gov.ph and its social media pages) for the announcement of the current year’s application window.
- Complete the online pre-screening form when it opens for the cycle.
- Submit the full application form along with the requirements the office specifies for that year.
- Wait for confirmation of your slot before the stated cutoff date.
In a past cycle, online registration and document submission were handled entirely through dedicated online forms, with a firm cutoff date for that intake. Application steps, forms, and deadlines are refreshed for each new cycle, so always use the current year’s official announcement rather than an older one.

National Options Alongside ELYU Iskolar
La Union students can typically apply for national programs at the same time as a provincial grant like ELYU Iskolar. The Tertiary Education Subsidy (TES) and the CHED Merit Scholarship Program (CMSP) both run independently of provincial residency programs, so it’s worth checking your eligibility for these regardless of your ELYU Iskolar status. Most programs will ask you to disclose any other grant you hold, and generally won’t let two programs cover the exact same expense.
