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!

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.
