At least 90 percent of Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) scholars endorsed by congressmen dropped out from school notwithstanding guarantees that expenditures for their studies will be guaranteed by government.

The Commission on Audit revealed that out of the 856 Tulong Dunong Program Scholars backed by their respective congressmen in Academic Year 2015-2016, a total of 773 failed to enroll for the next school years and did not graduate .

Reacting to the COA audit findings, the PUP management lamented that the dropouts have denied other poor but deserving students the opportunity to finish Tertiary Education. Among the congressmen who endorsed the most number of students and graduates were Reps. A. Tan, 44 graduates out of 267 scholars; Robbie Puno, 19 graduates out of 144 scholars; Mirasol Aragones, four out of 71 scholars; N. Gonzales, five out of 66 scholars; J. Mendoza, five out 55 scholars; and Lanie Revilla, 3 out 28 scholars.
