Transferring to UP (merged threads from Academe)

[giansamson2006]

Err. So basta makalipat ka lang at walang math at science eh ok na? Wala ka bang hilig gawin?

[ikotspotter]

Transferee here.. Actually nagke-credit ang UP ng courses taken outside UP pero dahil sa sobrang iba ng subjects sa UP compared to other schools, mahihirapan kang ipa-credit ang mga subjects mo unless super general nyan e.g. College Algebra, General Psychology, Trigonometry, yan lang usually ang meron sa UP na meron din other schools. Other universities have Studies and Thinking Skills in English na subject, may Filipino version pa yan. Basta yung mga usual na ibinibigay na subjects sa mga freshies na pare2ho. Sa UP kasi my RGEP, especialized yung mga subjects kaya ibang ibang talaga from other schools. May validation exam na tinatawag. During summer, aaply ka para mag take ng exam related sa subject na gusto mong ipa-credit (usually kasabay mong magte-take ang mga nagreremoval exams) then kapag naipasa mo congratz, credited na sya, but if not, di na sya ike-credit. Take ka na ule sa UP. I think yung NSTP/ROTC walang ng ganun, ike-credit na ata agad. I chose not to ask for creditation kasi gusto kong pure maroon blood transcript ko. oha!! hahaha!! keri lang madelay nu! sino bang nagmamadali.. i'll make the most out of my UP life! hehe.

laki problema mo tsong. halos lahat, pagdaanan ang math 17 o math 100 eh. kung hindi man, tadtad ka sa puyat dahil sa papers at research.

mag-CAL ka kaya? wala atang math dun. pero malamang, research, meron. euro lang, comparative lit, etc.

Hehe. Hindi lang ako magaling. Pero kayang kaya naman. Pinasa ko naman ang Math11. Pero ayos na ang research sakin. Hindi lang talaga ko ganun kasipag. Hehe.

Yes. Baka nga magCAL nalang ako. Salamat.

[rootloops]

ahm, perhaps you can transfer to cal? or chk? of tourism? or educ? or libsci? or public ad? or mascom? or philo? or history?

Hmm. Onga. Puro ganyan din mga iniisip ko. Sana kayanin. At payagan. Salamat!

[kungpow]

Seriously, research experience is one of the things that shapes a student into becoming a better person especially if you have a very demanding adviser. To say that you aren't especially analytical thus the weak math and science skills might be considered as acknowledging one's strengths and weaknesses, but to announce that you're too lazy to do research is just plain said.

Seize the opportunity of being able to do research.

hey guys, I'm from DLSU-m. Last December nagpunta ako ng UPd para magtanong regarding dun sa transferring. Excited na ako kasi alam kong 33 units ang requirement sa UP for transferees eh naka-38 units na ako. But when I got there in the Office of the Registrar, the lady said that they won't include PE subjects, NSTP/ROTC's, and religion. what the F, edi tinanggal nila. minus 7 units, naging 31 units nalang yung pwedeng i evalu8 ng UP. I was really disappointed.

Pero I asked the lady kung pwedeng i evaluate na nila yung 31 units ko. I was shocked na 1.86 yung equivalent average ko sa UP. Now, i still enrolled in DLSU with minimum terms na lang and really doing my best to just maintain o pataasin pa. pero sayang talaga, if only I had reached 33 units, eh di sana vacation ko na from january to may. hahaha!

Go to UP Diliman's College of Arts and Letters. UPLB's too scientific- and mathematics-oriented... I believe you can't survive there.

[kurosagi]

^Youch. Good thing I saw that kasi, may tanong uli ako.

I'm transferring from another college, and
Trisemestral ang school ko...so, Included po ba *** 3rd trime ko sa evaluation nila? Kasi kung *** 1st and 2nd lang, pag tinanggal pa *** 15 units ko na PE, ROTC at Values, 31 units na lang din. Tsk.

But, Values isn't religion, i took it up, and it wasn't biased and all. We had to learn ethics and etiquette..etc, but no relige. So how does this figure?

Also, *** 3rd trime subjects (or just the 3rd trime in general) po ba na required to finish a year sa school ko eh kasama sa GPA evaluation??

Salamat!

Di naman talaga nacre-credit kasi sa UP ang PE subjects and NSTP. Kahit sa mga regular student. Wala siyang bearing sa GPA mo.

Good luck on your application! Pagbutihin mo pagaaral mo.

Transfer from other Universities and Colleges
A student with previous college work wishing to transfer to the University must satisfy University rules indicated below on admission of transfer students. There is no entrance test administered for transfer applicants. A transfer applicant may be admitted provided that:

-he can present at least 33 academic units with a general weighted average of 2.0 or better for all the collegiate academic units he has taken outside the University;
-he will have to complete in the University not less than 50 percent of the units required for his program; and

Salamat!

definitely kasama sa evaluation yung mga subjects mo ng 3rd trime para umabot ng 33 units yung acquired academic units mo. yun kasi yung first requirement eh. nagtanong nga din ako kung pwdeng yung kulang na 2 units ko eh sa UPd ko na kunin, hndi daw pwde kasi ang first requirement **** eh 33 units dapat. sayang tuloy

values? uhm, ganito nalang, hingi ka ng course description sa school mo ngayon tapos present it to the UP admissions kung considered sya as academic course nila or religion **** yun. ganun kasi ginawa ko eh kaso ayun, religion pala talaga yun

basta all the subjects na kinuha mo from your school na considered as academic sa UP eh ieevaluate nila at ttngnan ang GPA mo. so ayun, GOODLUCK satin.

[pedropinduko]

Transferee from lasalle ako. Yup, kasama ang 3rd trimester sa evaluation. At hindi talaga kasama ang religion, pe, cwts/rotc. Sa lasalle kasama ito sa pagcompute ng gpa, sa UP hindi. By 2.0, that means 3.0 ang gpa mo sa lasalle. Hehe. Good luck.

kokonti lang ang nagaaply sa BA Malikhaing Pagsulat..ang narinig ko pa nga a few years ago tatanggalin na siya sa list ng offered programs..narinig ko lang naman at nakalimutan ko na kung saan kaya hindi ko din ito mavavalidate, okay?

syempre i-plug ko na ang aking course haha BA philosophy po ay non-quota..tapos yung Arts and Letters courses hindi rin quota..actually ang mga quota lang naman ay BAA, Econ, Engg courses, BS Psychology, BS MBB..yung iba hindi ko na alam..basta if popular course, malamang quota course yun..

siguro one of these days ay magpopost ako ng list ng quota courses ng UP haha may list ako nun eh..yung ginamit ko nung pumipili ako ng course na ilalagay sa application form haha pero nawala ko na siya at medyo hindi ko narin kabisado..hmm pero one of these days ipopost ko yun..

kuya, taga-UST kc aqo. sa tngn mu kaya *** THEOLOGY e hnd considered as an ACADEMIC subject?

ang alam ko, ipapaevaluate pa yung course description ng theology para malaman if academic ba siya or religion..pero kasi..if ever man academic siya, pinakamalapit na niyang equivalent ang Philosophy of Religion or Medieval Philosophy..so kung hindi philosophy ang course na kukunin mo sa UP, hindi rin siya make-credit..unless gusto mo siyang gawing free elective..which i doubt kasi kadalasang kinukuha sa free electives ay yung madaling ipasa para pampataas ng GWA or according sa interests mo..

ay salamat po sa info. tnong *** pu ulit. U mean kahit na for example 2.15 lang *** GWA qo ds year (I'm from UST n balak mgtransfer sa UP)..at BA Philo *** kukunin, MAY CHANCE KAYA AKONG MAKATRANSFER DUN, KC NON-QUOTA COURSE **?

[luna_cyro16]

as of now, the minimum grade requirement is 2.0 so if you really want to transfer..stay ka muna jan ng at least one sem para mapataas mo ang GWA mo..then may chance ka na makalipat..maybe you should call up the office nalang para makapag-inquire ka..or if you want..go straight to the university registrar or office of college secretary ng college kung saan under ang gusto mong course..para ma-advise ka nila sa mga possible options mo..

[whatshername]

Mahigpit po ba sa College of Educ? Balak ko po mag transfer from UPLB.

[kurosagi]

Need to get ur opinions about each of the following, and which has like a talent test or something.

English Studies Does this have like, a talent test na on-the-spot?

Journalism - ^Likewise?

Anthropology - comprehensive Knowledge about culture?

Lib Sci - What's so scientific about Libraries???????

Fine Arts - Do I need to be a really kick-*** artist to pass? Or pede na kahit mejo amateurish ang gawa?

History - extensive knowledge about history?

Need ur help immediately.....lapit na applications...

Anyway, pede bang maramihan ang application sa any college within Diliman? Kumbaga kung anong course gusto kong lipatan , mag send ako ng form? Or may limit?

[Draex]

There's no College of Education in UPLB.... but I know there are education classes there, normally taken by students of BS Stat (for those specialized in Education), BS Development Communication and BS Economics.

It is near ACCI and the college of Economics and Management. I'm not sure if that is under the College of Public Affairs (CPA)
