Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the performance of scholarship recipients and grantors from the Amungme and Kamoro Community Development Foundation (AKCDF) in Central Java, as well as to explore the factors that influence their success or failure. The research method uses a blended method, namely descriptive and qualitative. Primary data sources with student informants scholarship recipients and scholarship providers,  secondary  data  sourced  from  books,  archive  sources,  personal documents  and  official  documents.  Data  analysis  includes  data  reduction,  data presentation,  and  drawing  conclusions.  The  results  of  the  evaluation  of  the performance of AKCDF scholarship recipients show that learning achievement is still low, scholarships are received on time, there is a conformity between the provisions of  the  recipients  with  prerequisites  and  targets.  Evaluation  of  the  performance  of scholarship providers shows that there are still AKCDF employees who do not meet the performance targets, the recipient's conformity with the specified prerequisites is good,  the  manager's  efforts  to  achieve  the  expected  performance  are  by  setting performance targets. Factors influencing the success of the scholarship program are MOUs with partners that make it easier to pay tuition fees, and provide full student scholarships up to the stipulated time limit. Factors that cause failure are the amount of  scholarships  that  are  not  sufficient  to  cover  daily  needs,  other  factors  are  the campus environment, society, parents as external factors. Internal factors in the form of motivation are reflected in the attitude that students cannot divide their study time with  activities  outside  of  class,  and  a  sense  of  laziness,  where  student  learning motivation leads to consistent attitudes and actions, the main factors in the success of education supported by scholarship programs.
