The provision of educational scholarships is a way of helping to obtain better educational opportunities. Intelligent, high-quality and globally competitive human resources are highly dependent on education. To support this, higher education institutions provide scholarships to outstanding students as an appreciation and inspiration to do better in academic and non-academic terms. The selection process for receiving scholarships for outstanding students at the University of Darussalam Gontor is often difficult because it involves many things, such as organizational activities, artistic or sports achievements and socio-economic status. One of the methods used in decision making is the simple additive weighting (SAW) method which is carried out by giving weight to each of the criteria used. With this decision-making system, it can facilitate the university in managing and developing the system that has been made. The calculation results obtained from the system are to get the 5 largest with the best value as a student scholarship recipient at the University of Darussalam Gontor.
