COLLEGE TIPS
Grabe! I love your tweet! Haha! I'm about to take the UPCAT this Saturday! Wish me luck! Haha! *fingers crossed*
Understanding College Entrance Test Results Besides “Passed”
The late Randy Pausch said “The brick walls aren’t there to keep us out. They’re there to show us how badly we really want something. The brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough.” Perhaps the same could be said of entrance exam results, too. Let’s face it: as much as we’d like to see... »
DOST Scholarship Exam Tips and Strategies
The government’s Department of Science and Technology (DOST) and the Science Education Institute (SEI) believe in developing the human capacity for greatness. That’s pretty much why a scholarship bearing their names exists—to give the scientists and engineers of tomorrow a chance to prove their mettle to the country and to themselves. Like all students in need of financial aid, though, these... »
UP STFAP Online Application
An old friend of mine once quipped that the Information Age has changed the way we do a lot of things—from the way we pay our bills to the way we apply for a slot in a learning institution like the University of the Philippines.. Case in point: UP has a system in place called the Socialized Tuition and Financial... »
Philippine College Scholarships: CEU Scholarships
In another article, I discussed the details of the Dean Julieta D. Tadle Memorial Scholarship. While it provides nifty financial assistance for worthy students, some people may find its course and slot requirements too restrictive. The good news is that Central Escolar University (CEU) also offers other scholarships for honor students coming from other high schools—even if they’re not necessarily interested... »
Philippine College Scholarships: TIP Quirino Scholarships
It would seem that the only constant applies to scholarship grants as well. Two cases that come to mind are the President Elpidio Quirino Scholarship Grant and the Secretary Guillermo de Vega Scholarship Grant, both of which are now defunct. Not to worry, though: The Engineer Demeterio A. Quirino, Jr. Scholarship and the Doctor Teresita U. Quirino Scholarship (henceforth referred to... »
Philippine College Scholarships: Presidential Scholarship and Leadership Grants of the University of the Philippines
When you think of the Association of South East Asian Nations, what usually comes to mind? Policies? Economic progress? Peaceful discussions? All of these are right and true, yes it’s easy to forget that the ASEAN also stands for social and cultural development as well. In fact, what better way to celebrate the latter than by having the nationals of ASEAN... »
Philippine College Scholarships: U.P. Government Scholarship
In another article, I mentioned the obligations and privileges involved in the University of the Philippines’ Oblation Scholarship. The good news is that that scholarship isn’t the only option available for incoming U.P. students. Since U.P is the state university, it makes sense that the Philippine government also has a means of providing financial assistance for deserving scholars. Let’s take a... »
Philippine College Scholarships: U.P. Oblation Scholarship
There are times when you really want to attend a certain university but you’re strapped for cash. What do you do during times like these? Why, you apply for a scholarship, of course! Fortunately, all learning institutions out there offer financial aid of one type or another. For example, you may be interested to know that the University of the Philippines... »
Philippine College Scholarships: TUP Scholarships
Not everyone who enters college chooses to pursue a business course. The geekier among us may opt focus on our strengths and capitalize on technological know-how instead. Perhaps you yourself wish to major in a technology-related field, yet you’re not sure how you’re going to pay for quality education. Like any good school, the Technology University of the Philippines (TUP) has... »
UP Survival Guide: Unconventional UP Academic Tactics
In real life, it’s not all a fairy tale mess of good versus evil. There’s plenty of shades of gray lurking here and there, some lighter shades and some darker shades/ oftentimes, you may be surprised to find that it’s those very shades of gray that gets the job done. You can be as straight shooting as you can manage,... »
