REMINDERS

No Student Handbook, no enrolment approval.
No OBE Course Reflective Vignette, no enrolment clearance. (Students who are now writing their theses/dissertations and who did not enroll in any course the previous term are not required to fill out the form.)
Course conversion, e.g., major to core, core to major, cognate to major, is highly discouraged as the prospectus dictates how these courses have to be treated. Doing so will minimize problems encountered during student academic evaluation.
Please ensure that you have already finished your coursework, i.e., have earned sufficient units (6 pre-requisite, 9 core, 15 specialization for master’s; 9 Philosophy courses/applied courses and 30 specialization for doctoral) and have taken the Written Comprehensive Examination (WCE) before you enroll in TW 1/DW1.
Returning students (those who have been inactive for one year or more) should see the Faculty Secretary for TOR evaluation.
Enroll in courses meant for your program unless these courses are treated as cognates or simply courses you are interested in.
The maximum academic load for students during a regular semester is twelve (12) units. The exceptions are as follows: Those under scholarship - 18 units; Those about to graduate – 15 units. The minimum number of units, however, is six; only three units in the case of TW1 enrollees. Fill out the overload form if you wish to enroll in 15 units.
Prioritize pre-requisite courses before taking other courses. Students who have not taken Research Methods are not allowed to enroll in Thesis Writing 1.
Seek advice about the nature of courses with revised or new titles so that retaking the same courses will be avoided.
Please note that old students will follow the old curricula while the new students shall follow the newly revised curricula. Old students, however, may enrol in the new courses offered this term.
Graduates of non-thesis MA programs required to enroll in Independent Research (bridging program) are not allowed to enroll in specialization courses if they have not published their papers in reputable journals.
