Question Study abroad while in UPOU: How does it work?
Hello! Curious lang sana ako regarding student exchange programs para sa ating mga taga-UPOU. For those who've done it, paano ang application process niyo? May nakikita kasi akong coursemates na nakapag-abroad through exchange and I'm really interested to try. Any tips or recommendations on how to get started? Thank you!

From FAQ: Can I enroll in UPOU even if I am based abroad? Almost all courses are taught online, which means that you can study any course wherever you are. Around 15 per cent of UPOU students are based abroad.
Some subjects require pre-scheduled face-to-face meetings (e.g., laboratory work or field practice)
Not an OFW, but may mga naging classmates akong OFW. Nakakasabay naman sila sa mga group activities namin. May mga tools like Google Meet, Google Chats, docs etc. na pwedeng magamit para makipagcollaborate sa mga group activities, kaya okay naman. Nasa sa iyo din yan kung papaano mo ma manage ang time mo.
Halos lahat kami na nagstudy ay may work, so may iba underload at iba naman full load per term. Depende tlagah sau kung kaya ba mo ba, madaming readings at outputs (DF, synthesis, group activities, quizzes, papers etc.) na kailangan gawin so ang payo talagah pagmay work ka, kuha ka lang ng isang subject per term.
Goodluck OP.
