Abstract
Assistance for underprivileged students (BSM) is a program from the government given to underprivileged students who excel, the goal is to provide relief in paying school fees. But there are problems in determining BSM, including the distribution of scholarships not on target. Therefore, to obtain better results and overcome these problems, a decision support system is used in determining BSM criteria. This study uses the method of Simple Additive Weighting (SAW), the method is often known as the weighted sum method. By applying the SAW method, it can help in making decisions for prospective poor student beneficiaries appropriately. The final results of this study found that the SAW method was able to overcome the problems in determining BSM with 100% accuracy.
