January 14, 2025

Overview

This project involved designing a comprehensive scholarship program aimed at addressing financial, academic, and personal growth challenges faced by first-year university students in Indonesia. Through market sizing, needs assessments, and benchmarking, the project focused on providing not only tuition support but also mentorship, career development, and community engagement to cultivate future leaders. The initiative is aligned with YBM BRILiaN’s mission to drive societal change by supporting education access and personal development.
Data Details
The challenge was to design a scholarship program that goes beyond financial aid and fosters holistic development, preparing students for academic success, career readiness, and societal contributions. The objective was to ensure that the scholarship impacts students' lives in a meaningful and sustainable way. Source: Data from government agencies (BPS, Kementerian Pendidikan), industry partners (LPDP, Djarum Foundation), and previous successful scholarship programs. Size: The program scope includes an initial budget allocation of $2 million to support 400 students, with further scalability based on market insights. Key Variables: Financial needs (tuition, allowances), academic resources (mentorship, tutoring), career development (job workshops, industry partnerships), and societal impact (volunteer hours, community contribution).
The Problem
Many new higher education students face financial barriers, with 15.8% affected by economic hardship, and this program helps reduce that pressure. However, students also need mentorship, career guidance, and mental health support to succeed in their studies and personal lives. By building leadership skills and encouraging community involvement, the program can benefit both students and society. Strong partnerships with universities and industry can support career growth, while clear tracking of retention, academic results, and graduate outcomes ensures impact. Structured volunteer work helps students give back and develop responsibility.
The Solution
Market Sizing: Used TAM, SAM, and SOM frameworks to assess the potential reach and impact of the scholarship program, estimating the number of students who would benefit from it. Needs Assessment: Identified key student needs such as financial aid, academic resources, personal development opportunities, and career mentoring. Program Components: Developed key program components including full/partial tuition, living stipends, mentoring, and structured volunteerism, based on best practices from established scholarship programs (e.g., LPDP, Djarum Foundation). SWOT Analysis: Identified potential challenges (e.g., funding limitations, student engagement) and proposed solutions (e.g., strategic partnerships, targeted recruitment efforts).
