<![CDATA[This research is based on field findings through observations and interviews at SMKN 2 Padang Panjang, which revealed that the process of managing school fee relief scholarship acceptance data is still done manually. This condition causes slow data input processes, slows down administration, and increases the potential for errors in processing student data. Thus, the main focus of this research is to create a valid, practical and effective SPK design in determining scholarship acceptance. This research is a type of Research and Development (R&D) research, using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method and the Agile development model. Based on the results of the validity test with 3 lecturers, the system obtained a score of 0.86, indicating a very high level of validity. The practicality test with 3 teachers obtained a score of 0.97, indicating that the system is easy to use. Meanwhile, the results of the effectiveness test with 22 students obtained a score of 0.87, indicating that this system is effective in supporting the scholarship recipient selection process. Unlike previous studies that generally only apply one decision-making method or use conventional development models, this study integrates AHP with an Agile approach to produce a system that is more accurate, practical, and adaptive to school needs. With these achievements, the developed decision support system is worthy of being used as a reliable and efficient tool in determining scholarship recipients at SMKN 2 Padang Panjang. ]]>
