CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

INTRODUCTION

Access to high-quality education is an essential step towards achieving career and


academic success. As one moves up to a higher course of learning, the expenses needed also
move up or increase in terms of financing. Financial obstacles can often stand in the way of
many aspiring engineers reaching their full potential. The students in college also have more
activities, and more of them need to be paid immediately for them to participate in said events.
Some parents, who provide for their children on daily necessities have enough money and some
can’t, are unavailable to provide much support. In this situation, the school provides a
scholarship to students with exceptional talent in various fields like sports. Some can be varsity,
and some can become student assistants to lessen their tuition fees at school.

Recognizing this challenge, scholarships become effective supporters, allowing deserving


students to overcome financial constraints to achieve their academic goals. In the constantly
evolving environment of engineering education at Baliuag University, scholarship grantees'
impacts on their educational performance, personal growth, career choices, and learning behavior
are significant. Furthermore, students’ motivation to continue to pursue an engineering degree
was attributed to prestige, engineering experiences acquired, financial and academic support,
faculty and peer support, and the gain of engineering knowledge throughout their academic
journey.(Salgado 2020).

A student’s persistence and success in engineering depend on multiple academic,


institutional, and personal factors. That said, engineering students, like all students, cannot
persist until graduation if they cannot pay their tuition and living expenses (Walton 2019).

OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The primary objective of this study is to gather evidence on how maintaining scholarship
impacts the student's learning behavior. Scholarship grants or University scholarships may be
given to an
6

engineering student at Baliuag University to help pay for miscellaneous, tuition, and other
educational costs. Engineering students from Baliuag University who have been awarded
scholarships by the institution participate in this study.

 To ascertain student opinions about scholarships.

Habiba (2022) discusses the impact of scholarships on student careers, focusing on the
case of the Foundation Next Generation Scholarship in Kosovo. The author highlights Kosovo’s
status as a young country with a significant youth population and emphasizes the role of
investment in its development. The country has attracted financial resources from various
international and local organizations, including NGOs, aimed at positively influencing the
economic environment. The passage references another study by Habiba, which examines the
impact of scholarships on student academic achievement in Punjab, Pakistan. The study’s
findings suggest that scholarships create a competitive environment among students, inspire
them to achieve their goals, and encourage attentive study habits. Scholarships also help students
manage their time effectively, develop a habit of book reading, and achieve better academic
performance.

Susan Smith (2021) examines the impact of scholarships on academic achievement


among students. She suggests that scholarships have a significant positive effect on academic
performance, particularly among disadvantaged students. However, the magnitude of the impact
varies depending on factors such as the amount of financial assistance provided and the duration
of the scholarship.

As indicated by Adams, R. (2019) to comprehend the effects of scholarships on variables


like grades, test scores, graduation rates, and post-graduate outcomes, Adams’ analysis analyzes
empirical data covering a broad range of scholarship programs and student populations. The
review provides a thorough knowledge of the relationship between scholarships and student
accomplishment by synthesizing findings from both quantitative and qualitative studies. She
highlights the beneficial impacts of scholarships on improving student academic performance
and encouraging educational achievement by identifying the major results from the literature.
The review delves into the many mechanisms that scholarships may have on student
10

accomplishment, including the removal of financial obstacles, the provision of educational


resources, and the cultivation of a nurturing learning environment.

In general, Dr. Adams’ review advances our knowledge of how scholarships support
students’ academic achievement. The review offers useful insights for policymakers,
practitioners, and academics interested in creating and implementing scholarship programs that
optimize their influence on student accomplishment by combining empirical evidence and
identifying best practices.

IMPACT ON LEARNING BEHAVIOR

From Chen, E. (2021), research findings suggest that need-based scholarships


significantly impact students’ learning behaviors. Specifically, the study identifies that students
who receive need-based scholarships demonstrate higher academic motivation, increased
participation in class discussions, and greater utilization of learning support services compared to
their peers without financial assistance. Additionally, the qualitative interviews reveal that
scholarship recipients often feel a sense of validation and support, which positively influences
their attitudes toward learning and learning success. By shedding light on the positive effects of
need-based scholarships on students’ learning behaviors, Chen’s research contributes to a deeper
understanding of the role of financial aid in promoting student engagement and academic success
in higher education.

As stated by Nguyen, J (2023), in the Influence of Scholarships on Student Engagement,


his longitudinal study examines how scholarships affect student engagement and academic
performance over time. By tracking participants from their first year through graduation, the
12

research provides insights into the sustained impact of financial aid on learning behaviors and
outcomes.

According to Mitchell, R. (2022), The Relationship Between Scholarships explores the


nuanced relationship between scholarships and student motivation. Through in-depth interviews
with scholarship recipients, the study uncovers the various ways in which financial aid influences
students’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, offering valuable insights for scholarship program
design and implementation.

Patel, A. (2024), explains the relationship of Scholarship on learning behaviors among


first-generation college students. By comparing the experiences of scholarship recipients and
non-recipients within this demographic, the study highlights the unique challenges and
opportunities faced by first-generation students with financial aid and academic engagement.
While the existing literature has provided valuable insights into the impact of scholarships on
first-generation college students, there is still a need for further investigation to understand the
specific mechanisms through which scholarships influence learning behaviors. This study aims
to contribute to the existing body of knowledge by conducting a comprehensive analysis of the
impact of scholarships on the learning behaviors of first-generation college students, considering
factors such as the type and duration of scholarships, students’ academic majors, and their
overall campus experiences.

Carter, S. (2021), investigates how scholarships contribute to promoting academic


resilience among at-risk students. Through a mixed-methods approach, the research examines the
protective factors associated with receiving financial aid and its influence on students’ ability to
overcome obstacles and persist in their academic pursuits. Through a mixed-methods approach,
Carter investigates the protective factors associated with receiving financial aid and its impact on
students’ ability to surmount obstacles and persist in their educational pursuits. The study sheds
light on the crucial role scholarships play in supporting at-risk students and fostering their
academic success despite the challenges they may face.

Thompson, L. (2022), explained the influence of need-based scholarships on


undergraduate students’ learning behaviors using a mixed-methods approach. The study
combines quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews to provide a comprehensive
understanding of how receiving need-based financial aid impacts various aspects of students’
13

academic engagement and behaviors. Thompson’s findings reveal that need-based scholarships
have a significant positive impact on students’ learning behaviors. Quantitative analysis shows
that scholarship recipients exhibit higher levels of attendance, participation in class discussions,
and utilization of academic resources compared to non-recipients. Moreover, qualitative
interviews highlight the importance of financial support in alleviating stress related to
educational expenses, allowing students to focus more on their studies and engage more actively
in learning activities. Overall, Dr. Thompson’s research contributes valuable insights into the
role of need-based scholarships in shaping students’ learning behaviors and academic

recipients demonstrated higher attendance rates, participation in extracurricular activities, and
proactive engagement with course materials.

Besides that, scholarships encourage students to feel responsible and accountable for their
academic performance. The fact that their education is financially supported pushes recipients to
set greater academic goals and strive for greatness. This resulted in better study habits, such as
consistent study sessions, excellent time management, and active participation in coursework.
Scholarships facilitate personal and professional development. Recipients felt increased
confidence and self-esteem after learning their academic achievements were recognized and
rewarded. Scholarships also provide networking opportunities, allowing students to interact with
industry professionals and obtain internships or job placements, thus improving their career
chances.
The findings emphasize the importance of scholarships in encouraging positive learning
practices and academic success among engineering students at Baliuag University. However, it is
critical to recognize that scholarships alone may not address all learning hurdles and that
additional support mechanisms, such as mentorship programs or academic counseling, may be
required to ensure overall student growth.

Recommendations

Based on the significance of this study, some recommendations are made to improve the
influence of scholarships on engineering students' learning behaviors at Baliuag University
College of Environmental Design and Engineering:

To the students: Despite having a scholarship or not, it is good to still better to give your best in
learning new things.
29

To the Parents: Given the enormous influence of parents on kids' educational experiences,
educational institutions, and scholarship sponsors should actively engage parents in talks about
the impact of maintaining scholarships on learning behavior. Providing resources and
information to parents can help them better support their children's academic aspirations.

To the Future Researchers: The researchers recommend lessening the scope of the study with a
certain course, in that way the data gathering procedure will be much less complicated to
accomplished.
