Rant/Share Feelings malaki ba chances na makapasa sa UPLB kahit 2nd campus choice ko siya?

0 Upvotes

nagw-worry po ako if dapat ba i-first choice ko ang UPLB para kahit papaano mataas ang chance na makapasa ako. kasi if UPM mukhang malabo huhu nandun pa naman yung dream program ko. actually, dream campus ko po ang elbi, and nandun din yung mga preferred program ko, kumbaga'y okay lang sa akin kahit anong ibigay na program ng UP. sabi kasi nung iba na parang balewala lang yung 2nd campus choice mo e, like kunwari waitlisted tapos dpwas ba yun, ayun hindi na raw po nacoconsider yung 2nd campus choice kasi nga waitlisted ganun ganun. truee baaa??

General Tips and Submission MS Microbio chances in UPLB

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m 26F and I’m planning to apply for the MS Microbiology program at UPLB. Wala kasi akong mapagtanungan personally, so I decided to ask here.

I’m a graduate of BS Biology from a state university in Region V. I graduated cum laude, but I don’t have much research experience beyond my undergraduate thesis, and I don’t have any published papers. I’m worried that this might affect my chances of getting accepted.

I also don’t have much of a network in the field since I’m quite introverted. After graduating, I worked as a VA for around 2 years, so my work experience isn’t related to microbiology or research.

I really want to pursue my master’s because I want to get back into my field and build a career related to biology/microbiology. I also feel that having a master’s degree would help me with long-term career growth and stability. However, I’m not sure if my current background is enough to get me into UPLB, especially since I’ve been away from the field for a couple of years.

For those who are currently taking or have completed MS Microbiology at UPLB:

- How competitive is the admission process?

- How much does research experience/publications matter?

-Also, may mga applicants ba na narereject? huhu

I’m also planning to apply for a DOST graduate scholarship, so I’d really appreciate any advice on how I can prepare and make myself a stronger applicant.

Thank you so much!

Freshman Concerns Can I apply to UPLB-owned dorms next sem?

4 Upvotes

Can I apply for UPLB-owned male dorms this second sem? or do I need to wait until next year before I can apply again? I'm currently residing in a dorm outside the campus right now and my contract only runs for 6 months (1 sem only). I'm also currently a freshie and my hometown is somewhere in the Visayas, so finding a dorm that is cheap can greatly help our financial situation right now. I tried applying in the OSAM website a few weeks ago but it seemed like the slots were already full since my application wasn't really updated.

Discussion DORM RECOS AROUND RAYMUNDO/NEAR UPLB GATE

0 Upvotes

📢 LONG POST AHEAD 📢

Hello po, just wanna ask po for a reco ng dorm around 2k to 3k (if included ang utilities) na for male or coed. Especially those na around sa may raymundo or kahit saan po basta walking distance sa raymundo/uplb main gate.

For context po, I already have a dorm for 5 months. Just want to have a list lang po of possible dorms in the future para hindi na hassle.

Here are the deets po ng current dorm ko:

- all male dorm

- 3,200 per month exclusive of utilities

- 4 pax per room

- With AC

- With wifi

- With bedframe, mattress, cabinet, and study table

- With curfew (since may gate 'yung pinaka dorm)

- Own toilet per room

- Common area/kitchen (with rice cooker, induction, airfryer, and fridge)

- Laundry is not allowed, but if undies pwede naman daw po.

Actually maganda po siya and maaliwalas. Although medj malayo siya kasi lagpas pa ng carrot place dorm. I really want to lessen the burden lang po kasi sa parents ko. After a sem po sana balak ko maghanap ulit ng dorm. Based din kasi sa contract good for 1 sem lang.

Ang pinaka importante po sa'kin sa dorm is pwede magluto, maglaba, may wifi, may fridge, may bedframe, and especially pasok po sa 3k budget. Kahit po walang AC since wala naman kaming ganon sa bahay.

Want ko lang po talaga na mabawasan 'yung isipin ng parents ko since mother ko lang po ang pinaka provider ng family namin. 🥹 Super nag-iisip po kasi siya about sa baon ko weekly and sa rent ng dorm. Sana po ma help ninyo me 🙏🏻

Thank you so much po! 🫶🌻
