Abstract: Scholarships are a form of support or appreciation given to individuals, generally for those who wish to continue their education but have economic limitations or for those who excel. A system is needed to determine worthy scholarship recipients to support decision-making. This research aims to identify the impact of a decision support system (DSS) in selecting scholarship recipients using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. This research collected 15 journals from Google Scholar published from 2020 to 2024, which were analyzed based on (Quality Assessmen. such as topic relevance, use of methods and criteria, and the impact of implementing a decision support system on determining scholarship recipients. The results of the analysis show that the implementation of a decision support system has a significant impact on selecting scholarship recipients who are transparent, effective, efficient, and accurate.

INTRODUCTION According to Pristiwanti et al. , . education is a learning process that aims to develop individual potential as a whole. Through education, humans gain the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes needed to live in society. Education has a vital role in human life. Education opens doors of opportunity for individuals to achieve their goals and improve their quality of life. Education also plays a role in shaping individual character, developing critical thinking skills, and fostering a sense of love for the country (Sukmayadi et al. , 2. addition, education is also a means to preserve the nation's culture and noble values. With quality education, it is expected to give birth to a young generation that is intelligent, creative, characterized, and able to face global challenges (Maisaroh & Untari. However, pursuing education to a higher level is often a big challenge, especially for individuals who come from families with economic limitations, as a solution to these challenges (Yasin et al. , 2. Scholarships exist as a form of financial support that facilitates access to education for those who have academic potential but are constrained by economic limitations (El-Yunusi et al. , 2. Scholarships are a form of financial support given to individuals to continue their Scholarships can be provided by the government, private institutions, universities, or other organizations (Irianto et al. , 2. According to Meiriza et al. , . the main purpose of providing scholarships is to provide opportunities for those who have academic potential but are constrained by financial problems to get higher education. Scholarships become a bridge for individuals to achieve their goals through education. With scholarships, many young people who excel but come from underprivileged families can continue their studies to a higher level. This has a positive impact not only on the individuals who receive the scholarship, but also on society at large (Sari & Yasin, 2. Each scholarship program has specific selection requirements to determine the recipients who best meet the criteria (Surati et al. , 2. According to Naya et al. , . the manual selection process takes a long time, especially in verifying documents such as salary slips, transcripts, certificates of inability, and other documents needed in accordance with the scholarship requirements. The number of criteria that need to be considered and the limited selection time, coupled with the non-optimal utilization of computer equipment, often makes data management inefficient and prone to errors. Thus, to select eligible scholarship recipients, a system is needed that can help the decision- making process such as a decision support system (Al Harits & Al Majid. According to Handoko . decision support systems (DSS) have become an increasingly important tool in the scholarship recipient selection process. With an increasing number of scholarship applicants and increasingly complex criteria, decision support systems (DSS) offer efficient and objective solutions. Meanwhile. According to Ilham et al. , . decision support system (DSS) works by processing data on prospective scholarship recipients based on various predetermined criteria, such as academic achievement, socioeconomic background, and contribution potential. Through certain algorithms, the decision support system (DSS) then produces a ranking of prospective scholarship recipients based on the scores obtained (Ramadhan & Noviyanto, 2. This allows scholarship awarding institutions to make more accurate and transparent decisions, and minimize the potential for bias in the selection process. Thus, a decision support system (DSS) can help ensure that scholarships are awarded to the most deserving and needy candidates (Jamung et al. , 2. Recently, the application of decision support systems (DSS) has increasingly become a popular topic in the scholarship acceptance selection process (Amaliah, 2. Several studies have revealed that the use of a decision support system (SPK) can affect the scholarship acceptance process. The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of the implementation of a decision support system (SPK) in the process of determining scholarship To find out how the impact of using a decision support system (SPK) on the scholarship acceptance process, researchers applied the systematic literature review (SLR) method by collecting 15 journals published in the last 5 years from Google Scholar for METHOD This research uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, which is a research method carried out systematically and objectively to collect, evaluate, and synthesize relevant evidence from various previously published literature sources (Suciati et , 2. The literature selected based on keywords that are by the research focus is then reviewed and identified in a structured manner by the stages set out in the SLR method (Anggraeni et al. , 2. In this study, the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method used three stages as described by Farah Faadillah Herindraningrum and Indrawati Yuhertiana. Figure 1. Stages of the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) Method . In preparing a research article using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, the first stage is planning. At this stage, questions relevant to the research topic are The following is the Research Question (RQ) used in this study: Research Question (RQ) 1: What methods and criteria are used in the implementation of decision support systems in determining scholarship recipients? Research Question (RQ) 2: Does the journal explain the impact of implementing a decision support system on the process of determining scholarship recipients? The second stage in the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method is conducting. this stage, a search process is carried out to obtain sources that are relevant to the Research Question (RQ). Source searches are carried out using Google Scholar through the website https://scholar. id/ using keywords in the form of "Decision Support System" and "Determination of Scholarship Recipients", then Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria are carried out where at this stage the criteria of the data found are determined to determine its eligibility as a research data source. The following are the criteria that make data considered suitable as a research source: "The data collected covers the period between 2020 - 2024", "Data taken from Google Scholar sources", "The data used is limited to journals relevant to the topic of decision support systems in determining scholarship recipients". Next, a Quality Assessment (QA) is carried out, the aim is to find out whether the journals obtained match the desired criteria and answer the research question (RQ). At this stage, the data that has been found will be evaluated based on the following questions: QA1: The journal was published between 2020 and 2024. QA2: The journal explains the methods and criteria used in the implementation of the decision support system for determining scholarship recipients. QA 3: The journal discusses the impact of the implementation of the decision support system on the process of determining scholarship recipients. Each journal will be given a score based on predetermined questions using "Yes" for journals that meet the criteria in Quality Assessment (QA) and "No" for journals that do not meet the criteria in Quality Assessment (QA). The final stage in the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method is reporting, where the results of the analysis and evaluation of the review of various journals are compiled in writing by the established format, where this stage is a discussion of the answers to each research question (RQ). RESULT Search Process Results and Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria The result of the Search Process and Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria is the selection of 15 journals that meet the criteria, namely journals published between 2020 and 2024, and discuss the topics of "Decision Support Systems" and "Determination of Scholarship Recipients". Furthermore, the journals were grouped into several categories. The following are the types of journals that were successfully obtained: No. No. Table 1.

Based on the results of the research, it is found that the application of a decision support system for determining scholarship recipients using the The SMART method provides benefits in making decisions to determine scholarship recipients The application of the SMART method based on the specified criteria also facilitates the school in determining scholarship recipients and avoids the subjective selection process. Based on the results of the application of the Fuzzy AHP method with 3 criteria such as family economic conditions, average family income, and number of dependents of parents, this study succeeded in determining students who were eligible to receive PIP scholarships from all alternative PIP scholarship applicants obtained a clusterization value of 25% of alternatives entitled to receive and 75% not entitled to receive. With this, it can be proven that the implementation of the Fuzzy AHP method in selecting prospective PIP scholarship recipients is very effective to be applied DISCUSSION Research Question 1 or RQ 1: What methods and criteria are used in the implementation of decision support systems in determining scholarship recipients? The use of methods and criteria in decision support systems for determining scholarship recipients is to increase objectivity, fairness, and transparency in the selection Based on the analysis conducted on 15 journals using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, various methods, and criteria used in decision support systems for determining scholarship recipients were found. Research by Amaliah & Suprianto . and Ridho et al. , . , use parents' income as a criterion in supporting the process of determining scholarship recipients by utilizing the application of decision support systems methods such as Multi-Objective Optimization based on Ratio (MOORA). Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Technique For Others Reference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), the use of these criteria and methods can provide convenience and speed in the decision-making process in the process of determining scholarship recipients transparently and objectively. Research conducted by Alita et al. , . used the Naive Bayes method with the criteria of average report card scores, parents' income, and number of siblings. Sianturi et al. their research used the Electree method with the criteria of average grades, parental income, number of parental dependents, and number of student achievements. While research by Syabaniah et al. , . uses the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method using the criteria for the amount of memorization, tajweed, makhorijul huruf, and poor family status. The Fuzzy Tsukamoto method was used in Susanti & Nawangsit . by taking the criteria of average final school grades, general knowledge championship achievements, and nonacademic decision championship achievements. Other research conducted by Anisa et al. implemented the Weighted Product method based on the criteria of parental employment, parental income, number of parental dependents, and average report card scores. Research conducted by Adek et al. , . uses the Preference Selection method with the criteria of academic test scores, basic skills test scores, and achievement scores. In research by (Rendu et al. , 2. Promethee uses the criteria of GPA, parental income, parental dependents, achievement, and semester. Dahlan et al. , . and Satria et al. , . their research used the Composite Performance Index (CPI) method with criteria for ability in the field of study, responsibility, creativity, and communication as well as parental income. GPA, electricity consumption, and Research conducted by Sukamto et al. , . and Surati et al. , . suggest that the use of the Simple Multi-Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) method by entering criteria based on value provides benefits in making decisions to determine scholarship recipients appropriately and can support the process of determining scholarship recipients by conducting experiments using 10 data and the results obtained a sequence of scholarship recipient values from highest to lowest. In research by Aditama & Anugrah . explained that using the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) method based on the criteria of parental dependents and distance of residence can help related parties in determining prospective students appropriately from the ranking process in the implementation of a decision support system. Based on some of the research explanations above, the use of methods and criteria has proven to facilitate the implementation of a decision support system for determining scholarship recipients objectively and transparently. This is because the right methods and criteria can minimize bias in the selection process so that the decisions taken are fairer and more accountable. Thus, it can be ensured that the scholarship is given to the most qualified prospective recipient. Research Question 2 or RQ 2: Does the journal explain the impact of implementing a decision support system on the process of determining scholarship recipients? In its utilization as a supporter in decision-making, especially in the process of determining scholarship recipients, decision support systems can have a significant impact in facilitating a fairer and more transparent selection process, so that every prospective recipient has the same opportunity. Based on research bySyifa et al. , . proved that the use of decision support systems is effective in selecting scholarship recipients. This is evidenced by the determination of 53 students to 10 students who deserve to be Tahfidz scholarship recipients. In Susanti & NawangsitAos research . explaining the use of decision support systems has a good impact, they revealed that using the Tsukamoto fuzzy method can help in determining student eligibility for scholarships. Based on the results of the trial, students with a probability value of more than 80. 00 are eligible for a scholarship. Research by Aflahin et al. , . successfully used a decision support system so that it had a significant impact on the determination of scholarship recipients, this is evidenced based on the results of the application of the Fuzzy AHP method with 3 criteria such as family economic conditions, average family income and number of dependents of parents, this study succeeded in determining students who were eligible to receive PIP scholarships from all alternative PIP scholarship applicants obtained a clusterization value of 25% alternatives entitled to receive and 75% not entitled to receive. With this, it can be proven that the implementation of the Fuzzy AHP method of decision support systems in selecting prospective PIP scholarship recipients is very effective to implement. The implementation of a decision support system can have a significant impact and broad benefits for various parties involved in the process of determining scholarship recipients. For scholarship providers, the system helps ensure that scholarship funds are allocated effectively and efficiently. For potential recipients, the system creates a fairer and more transparent selection process. As for the selection team, the system eases their workload and allows them to focus on more strategic tasks. CONCLUSION Based on the results of the research that has been done, it can be concluded that based on the results of the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, the methods in decision support systems that are widely used by researchers are Composite Performance Index (CPI) and Simple Multi-Attribute Rating Technique (SMART). The criteria for determining the most widely used scholarship recipients are parents' income and report card grades. It can be concluded that the decision support system has a positive impact on the process of determining scholarship recipients in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, and accuracy of REFERENCES
