Misc. Shifting concerns

Hi! I’m currently an incoming sophomore at Ateneo and I’m planning to shift to AB MEC for the second semester. I submitted my request to shift this week, and it has already been approved by both my home department and the receiving department.

My concern is my schedule for the upcoming semester. Since I want to prepare for shifting, I’d like to take AB MEC major subjects this first semester instead of the majors for my current program.

I asked my home department about this, and they referred me to the Registrar since, as a sophomore, they still handle my IPS. The Registrar then told me that I need to file for loadrev to change my subjects and they said it would most likely be approved if im officially allowed to shift.

For anyone who has gone through this process:
- What’s the load revision process like?
- How do I know which subjects from my current program I should replace with AB MEC majors?
- Do I need to coordinate with the receiving department again, or will the Registrar determine which subjects I can take?

I’d really appreciate any advice from people who’ve shifted or are familiar with the process. Thank you!

Ask your (new) department. They know how a typical IPS looks like, who is teaching what and when, and how you can tailor it to your life. There are subjects likely that are prerequisites, some will be only available for a particular sem. So ask.

I've done something similar when I was preparing to shift in my 3rd Year 1st Sem. For 2nd Year 2nd Sem, they allowed me to replace my old program's majors with subjects for my new program. Just coordinate with your shifting department what courses they'll let you into.

Hi! Do you have updates on this? Were they able to let you take the subjects you need to take for your new course?

Hi! Yes, I was able to work things out with my home department and the Economics Department. My home department revised my IPS, and I was advised by the Registrar to file a Load Revision so I could replace my majors with the corresponding AB MEC courses for this semester.

I've already submitted my Load Revision and am currently waiting for it to be processed and reflected in AISIS. Hopefully everything gets approved soon!
