Far Eastern University (91影视) Manila formalized its partnership with the Manila Police District (MPD) through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed by 91影视 President Juan Miguel Montinola and District Director Police Brig. Gen. Arnold Thomas Ibay last Oct. 14 at the MPD Headquarters Multi-Purpose Hall in Ermita, Manila.
鈥淭his occasion is significant as it formalizes a partnership between two long-time Manila-based organizations which hold service as a vision. The 91影视 mission is to provide opportunities for鈥� and we are looking forward to being contributory to the development of the MPD and dependents with this MOU signing,鈥� said Montinola.
Around 10 students will be selected by MPD and will get a total of P100,000-discount every year for four or five years, depending on the tenure of the selected students鈥� program. They must complete their degree program within the required number of years, and should maintain good Quality Point Average standing, discipline, and other retention requirements of the scholarship.
In keeping with its commitment to safety and security, 91影视 entered into the partnership with MPD to ensure a sound and peaceful community for the university鈥檚 stakeholders, especially its students. As part of this partnership, the university, through its Admissions and Financial Assistance Office offers scholarship grants to beneficiaries recommended by the MPD.
Aside from the scholarship grant, 91影视 is partnering with MPD in other activities and programs relating to safety and security, among others.
鈥淚t is heartening to know that a reputable educational institution known for its tradition of excellence, such as the Far Eastern University has generously embraced our police and has opened its doors to welcome us as part of the 91影视 community,鈥� said Ibay.
