The official Monster Scholars visited the booth to talk about their experience during the selection process. Everyone shared how they nervously waited for the call and how genuinely happy and excited they were when they finally got it.
They were interviewed by the Kikay Barkada Chico, Gino, and Rica during The Morning Rush. Before they went on air, the scholars got some time to get to know each other over a simple breakfast prepared by the Monster team.
Monster RX93.1 Vice President Raffy Barreiro shared the inspiring effect of the Monster Scholarship program with his followers as well.
Monster RX93.1's Search For The Monster Scholar is a continuing public service program that has been conducted since 2009. It is a powerful affirmation of RX93.1's credo: "We believe in the power of an education" and a gripping, dramatic listening experience.
Unlike other scholarship programs, the Monster Scholarship places a premium on – but does not make an exclusive requirement – academic potential as a qualifier, recognizing that many times poor students' grades suffer because of extenuating circumstances, such as family problems or the need to work while studying. Through the Search lasting more than a month, interested applicants are asked to write the email address scholar@rx931.com to relate their story and to ask for help.
Chosen "nominees" after the initial screening of applications are asked to visit the station for an in-depth interview. A capsule production of the interview is aired throughout the period. The station's Board of Judges selects the final scholars based on their academic potential, desire to succeed, and the severity of their need.
These scholars were able to continue their education through the sponsorship of Monster RX93.1 and generous listeners who freely donated money (without any solicitation effort from the station) to make sure more Monster Scholar nominees would be able to enroll in the incoming semester.
Monster RX 93.1 wants to thank all our generous sponsors:
