Scholarships reserved for students who are economically lessable to pay for college tuition. Many criteria used
for determining the scholarship made it difficult to make a decision on the granting of scholarships and the time
it takes too long. The purpose of this studi is the classification of scholarships recipients by using decision tree
with the algorithm C4.5. Classification results are evaluated and validated by Confusion Matrix and ROC
curves to determine the level of accuracy decision tree
in making the classification

classification is used to create a decision support system in the awarding of scholarships. The system used was
made with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. The decision s
upport system is to simplify and speed up decision making
for the scholarships.
