Qualifying for a Program
Campus qualifiers are then ranked according to the different grade predictors of the degree programs they chose. Top-ranking qualifiers are accepted according to the number of slots available for that program. If you don’t make it to your first choice of program, you will be screened again for your second choice using the same process, and so on until the last choice you have indicated.
If you still do not make it to your last indicated course choice, you will remain qualified for that campus but you must then find a degree program with available slots (DPWS) in that campus. Remember, if you are an UPCAT qualifier, you only need to find a program that will accept you. The campus Registrar’s Office will help you find that program. Qualification into UP is therefore a matter of qualifying for a campus, regardless of course choices.
What if I do not qualify for a campus?
If you do not qualify to any of your campus choices, you have several options:
FIRST: You can try other UP campuses if your admission grade is within their posted cutoff grade, and they still have available slots.
Present your Non-Qualifier’s Slip (which indicates your admission grade and will be sent to you in the mail) to the Registrar’s Office of the campus you want to enter. However, there is no guarantee of acceptance as each campus may have additional criteria for admission through appeals.
SECOND: If no UP campus can accommodate you, you can enroll in a college or university other than UP. After earning 33 academic units with a weighted average of 2.00 or better on the UP marking system, you can apply for transfer to a UP campus. Again, each campus has its own rules on transfer and accepts only a limited number of transfer students. Information regarding transfer to UP may be obtained from the Office of the University Registrar of the respective UP campuses.
The examinations will be held nationwide on Aug. 30. The UPCAT 2013 list of passers can be viewed in alphabetical order, the links of which will be accessible by name range, based on previous releases.
