ReviewLab is an online review platform for college entrance exams at state universities, including the University of the Philippines (UP), the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) and other state universities and colleges (SUCs).

The program also offers Nation-Building Scholarships that cover 50 to 100 percent of the review fee for high-achieving student leaders from low-income families.
How to apply
AHEAD says it will distribute the free slots through public high schools, local youth groups and socio-civic organizations. Students can:
- Ask their teacher or school guidance office about the free slots.
- Visit the ReviewLab website at reviewlab.ahead.edu.ph and choose the free scholarship option.
- Message ReviewLab on Facebook at @reviewlabph or email reviewlab@ahead.edu.ph.
"We want to give every hardworking student an equal chance to enter their dream university," AHEAD Education Group founder and chair Rossana Llenado said in the announcement.
Free slots versus paid plans
ReviewLab also sells paid review plans, from short practice passes to a full 32-hour live program. Students who want the free review should apply specifically for the free scholarship slots. The slots are free, so students should not pay anyone who offers to sell or reserve one.
