<![CDATA[Scholarships are a form of recognition provided as financial assistance to individuals or organizations based on their achievements and performance. The provision of merit-based scholarships aims to enhance the quality of students' learning and academic performance. However, one of the main challenges in the scholarship selection process is conducting objective evaluations, as the assessment involves multiple criteria, including students' academic abilities and participation in school activities. To address this challenge, a Decision Support System (DSS) employing the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) method was developed to assist decision-makers in the scholarship selection process. The WASPAS method minimizes assessment errors and optimizes the ranking process by accurately determining the highest- and lowest-scoring candidates. The system was implemented using the PHP programming language and a MySQL database, while the software development process followed the Waterfall methodology. The results of system testing indicate that the WASPAS-based Decision Support System effectively performs the ranking process and supports the selection of merit scholarship recipients accurately and efficiently.]]>
