The scholarship program is designed as part of Bank’s commitment to supporting high-achieving students in accessing quality education, aligning with efforts to enhance their quality of life.

Since the launch of the scholarship program in 2006, Bank has successfully awarded scholarships to 1,286 students across universities in Indonesia and several ASEAN countries.

Bank also provides personal development (soft skills) training for scholarship recipients through various educational programs, such as Be Smart Program, Financial Literacy Training, and other educational workshops (e.g., public speaking and branding). Scholarship recipients also have the opportunity to participate in volunteering programs, including activities in Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), visits to #JadiBerkelanjutan MSMEs, teaching and tree planting at schools, stunting awareness campaigns, distributing basic necessities to underprivileged families, and beach clean-up initiatives.

This year, Bank launched a new initiative alongside the inauguration of scholarship recipients for the 2024–2026 period, namely the CIMB Niaga Scholarship Alumni Association. This initiative is expected to serve as a platform for alumni across Indonesia to continue sharing experiences and supporting one another.
