<![CDATA[In an era that shows the importance of competitiveness, the role of human resources is greatly needed to support economic activities. This condition has relevance to the importance of investment in education. Efforts to build high-quality human resources in the context of higher education levels of Strata-2 and Strata-3 are steps taken by the government. One of them is the implementation of affirmative scholarships by Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education or Lembaga Pengelola Dana Pendidikan (LPDP) in bahasa. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the affirmative scholarship policy by LPDP. This study uses the concept of policy implementation proposed by Grindle (1980) in order to make a comparison between what is implemented and what is planned. By using a qualitative approach, this study collected data through interviews and document studies which are then analyzed using illustrative method techniques. The results of the study show that the implementation of the affirmative scholarship policy by LPDP shows good things, only there are notes on technical issues when registering in the form of internet access constraints in affirmative areas, the achievement of language enrichment programs that are not optimal during study preparation, the occurrence of cases during the implementation of the study, and when completing the study shows that timely graduation and contribution programs are not optimal, as well as the problem of LPDP alumni who do not return to Indonesia after graduating from their studies.]]>
