DETERMINATION OF BANK INDONESIA SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS USING NAÏVE BAYES CLASSIFIER

A scholarship is a grant given to students as financial aid for education. One of the most sought-after scholarships is the scholarship from Bank Indonesia. Currently, the selection process for Bank Indonesia scholarship recipients still involves verifying the completeness of the administrative documents of the prospective recipients. Manual administrative verification requires a long time for data processing and re-verification. Therefore, there is a need for a data classification system to assist in the decision-making process for Bank Indonesia scholarship recipients. This study aims to implement the naïve Bayes classifier method to classify Bank Indonesia scholarships accurately. The variables used include gender, semester, parental income, grade point average (GPA), achievement, organizational activity, and the number of dependents. This research found that the naïve Bayes classifier method for classifying Bank Indonesia scholarship recipients can be done accurately with an accuracy rate of 86,84%
