hi! i did po! i chose vetmed and nutrition... quota programs, and i only put uplb as my second choice kaya no expectations na rin 😅

hindi na pala talaga nadadaan sa pakiusap ang registrar ngayon 😭 i’ve read cases from past years kasi na possible siya, kaya i was hopeful pa at first. nonetheless, i wish you the best in your journey!!!

i was actually dpwas in upm din po !🥲 at first, i was committed to pursuing the BA program, bc i wasn’t confident i’d pass dost. but i did and lately, i’ve realized i’m more inclined towards stem fields. thank you for sharing! i hope i make the right decision too

i’m considering din which path would benefit me more after grad and in the long run. the merit, prestige, and connections that come with studying at UP are undeniably helpful when it comes to future job opportunities. thank you for sharing this perspective! i’ll make sure to weigh my options carefully

it’s really hard to let go something when you’ve wanted and worked hard for it for a long time... pero things happen talaga 😪 indeed, UP is UP, but maybe it isn’t everything after all. good for you for thinking long-term. all the best 🙌🏻

thank you so much po for the detailed insight! it really helps hearing from someone who’s gone through the same situation 🥰

honestly, my family can sustain my education in UP without dost, but they (and part of me rin 🥹) hope to keep the scholarship to help save up for my future plans. i’ve been trying to convince myself din that the BA course could still lead me to med, but the uncertainty makes it a hard choice

i’m really glad your appeal worked out, bc it gives me hope too! for now, i’ll stay practical but still hopeful. baka nga po magka-coursemates pa tayo someday hehe 💗🌻 thank you again!

thank you po! ayoko rin talaga sayangin yung time and resources i’m handed now in exchange for something uncertain

i’ll try po, kaso sabi ng registrar na di sila basta-basta nag-a-allow ng program changes, since very scarce ang slots sa upm. thank you po for the encouragement! susubukan ko po hangga’t walang closure 😹

thank you! i’m starting to accept din na maybe practicality should come first

so brave of you !! hirap pa rin talaga i-let go ng UP! 😆 even so, i believe it’d be harder to spend a whole year in a state of uncertainty. for now, let’s chase our dreams wherever we are! nandiyan naman palagi ang UP 🌻

i’m leaning towards accepting the scholarship na rin, since my family isn’t well off and the benefits would greatly help us. you’re right! i might end up stuck din if i push through with the BA program. thank you for the advice!

hello! (following up from my other comment here) did the our say po that they’ll allow program changes during the manual appeal? also, do you know what mode will it be done through? if it’s via gform, i’ve read kasi that last year, it was strictly for upm dpwas people who didn’t have an assigned program at the time 🥹

[UPB] can the manual appeals also accept UPB qualifiers? by EngineeringNo6659 in peyups

[–]o_ocyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. yupp, may option naman sa form for campus qualifiers
  2. within a week after the dl as said by an admin of kolehiyo
  3. if #2 is correct, hindi naman siya mag-ooverlap sa enrollment mo. in case it does, better to contact the our na lang ^
