LAMUT, Ifugao- – All campuses of the Ifugao State University (IFSU) in the province are set to offer free tuition fee to students who wish to finish a Baccalaureate degree starting this school year 2017-2018 which opens this August.
IFSU is allotted P24.286 million from the General Appropriation Act (GAA) to cover the free tuition for the first and second semesters of school year 2017-2018.
The no tuition fee policy will apply to all types of students like transferees, returnees and regulars.
