Abstract

This study aims to address issues in the scholarship recipient selection process at vocational high schools (SMK). The main challenge lies in the limited availability of scholarships, necessitating careful selection. The objective of this research is to implement the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method as a solution to enhance the structure, efficiency, and objectivity of the selection process. The SAW method is used as the primary approach, which involves steps such as determining criteria, assigning preference weights, and ranking alternatives. The data used includes a sample of 5 scholarship candidates from SMK N 1 Hiliran Gumanti, with criteria divided into benefits and costs. The results of the selection of scholarships demonstrate the success of SAW in providing the rankings according to predefined criteria. The conclusion of this research highlights the effectiveness of the SAW method in delivering objective rankings to scholarship candidates. The final results can help the selection team determine the best scholarship recipients. The implementation of SAW is expected to create a more structured and efficient selection system at SMK, opening opportunities for improved educational access for financially needy students.
