A new batch of academic scholars at the Southville International School affiliated with Foreign Universities (SISFU) is underway as eight high schools from Metro Manila and other key cities topped the 2015 Global Dimensions Olympiad (GDO) scholarship program of the premier international school.

Chiang Kai Shek College emerged as the 2015 GDO champion for the second consecutive year and led the list of secondary schools that reached the final round of the annual competition that entitles qualified students to avail themselves of scholarship privileges in reputable international colleges and universities affiliated with SISFU.

The other seven finalists are Sen. Renato “Companero” Cayetano Science High School, Elizabeth Seton School-Las Pinas City, La Salle University Integrated School-Ozamis City, Divine Light Academy-Las Pinas City, Colegio San Agustin, University of Bohol-Victoriano D. Tirol Advanced Learning Center and Southville International School and Colleges.

The schools made it to the top slot after their student representatives hurdled a series of oral examinations, with each round consisting of challenging questions on the subjects of history, mathematics, science and English..

They came out on top of a field of 23 private and public institutions from Manila and some key provinces represented by 152 students that passed the preliminary round of the program.
