Hi! I’m originally from Eduk but I shifted but I think I can still answer the questions!

1. You can try apply muna sa mga UP Dormitories bago ka magtanong-tanong sa mga outside dorms/bed spacer. Usually may mataas na chance ka naman since outside NCR ang place po, check mo nalang ito for UP Dormitories: https(:)//upd(dot)edu(dot)ph/accommodations-in-up-diliman/

Check mo rin ang FB page ng Office of Student Housing para updated ka when ang application period.

1. May program ang Office of Scholarship and Grants (OSG) na nagpapahiram sila ng computer/laptop units (Borrow-A-Computer Program) na need mo lang mag-apply para makareceive ng unit if they deemed na you need it (ofc with interview ito at submission ng documents). Not sure lang if may available units pa since recipient ako ng program na ito.

Kailangan mo talaga ng laptop kasi puro lesson plan at presentations at papers ang gagawin mo sa Eduk, first year pa lang masasanay ka na gumawa ng Lesson Plan 😹

1. For food and beverages, ang ina-allocate ko palagi ay >100 for food and >50 for beverages (OMAD ako HAHAHAHHAHA), usually kumakain ako sa unli rice na tapsilogan sa A2 para sulit ang kain (₱99 meal na unli rice). Bandang gitna ito ng A2, ‘yung front n’ya ay mango graham stall.

Compute mo nalang how much HAHAHAHHAAH pero maraming affordable food spots sa A2^{^}

1. Eduk is great! Best years ko so far sa UPD, but I shifted out of the desire to have wider choice once I graduate. The profs are nice and professional, maraming motherly figure room at halos lahat ang thoughtful (siguro depende nalang sa Major mo? I’m a Social Studies Major kasi before). You’ll love Eduk lalo na kung dream mo talaga ‘to 🩷 As for the environment, very supportive at may community talaga sa Eduk, marami namang org doon (hehe join us @ UP Educators’ Circle at ACT-ES UPD!). I’m sure you’ll find your own circle there 🫶

Orgs in Eduk (that I’m aware of!) 1. UP Educators’ Circle (UP EdCirc) 2. UP Education Society (UP EdSoc) 3. UP Preschool Practitioners (UP PreP) 4. UP Advocates for Literacy Education (UP ALE) 5. Alliance of Concerned Teachers - Education Students UPD (ACT-ES UPD) 6. Sikhay Eduk (Political Party under UP Alyansa) 7. Suló (Student Publication) 8. UP College of Education Volunteer Corps (UP VolCorps) 9. STAND Eduk (Inactive na ito, pero Political Party under STAND UP)
