Guidance Career Development and Placement Program

Dear Parents,

Greetings!

As we close the school year 2009 – 2010, we would like to leave pertinent reminders with regard to the Career Development and Placement Program of our unit for next school year.

First and foremost, the school has chosen to tie up with DILIMAN ACCESS Tutorials and Reviews for the incoming Fourth Year High School students which will offer 60 hours of comprehensive college review program this summer. The review program will cost P 3,800.00/student (inclusive of learning materials). A non-refundable Reservation Fee of P500 should be paid on or before March 30, 2010. The remaining balance of P3,300.00 should be paid on or before May 14, 2010.. The review sessions will run from May 11-31, 2010, Mondays to Fridays from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm at the Gusaling Mindanao (HS Bldg). Any announcements pertaining to changes in the schedule (if there are) will be made through the batch Yahoo groups/email/text messaging.

The Guidance Unit, through its Career Development and Placement Program, will process college application for the major universities and colleges by batch of all graduating HS students. The guidance counselor shall be responsible for gathering, claiming, and submitting the application requirements to respective universities as well as collecting of application/testing fee payments. The student only needs to fill out the application form completely and submit it to the counselor together with the required documents on or before the designated deadlines. Colleges / universities included in the batch processing are University of the Philippines, Ateneo de Manila University, De La Salle University – Manila, De La Salle – College of St. Benilde, De La Salle University – Dasmariñas, and University of Sto. Tomas. Application for other colleges /universities shall also be accommodated and processed (by batch) on the condition that fifty (50) or more students shall apply.

Along with this bulletin is the list of required documents and materials needed for your child’s college application. Please make the most of the summer vacation to prepare and process these documents in order to avoid hassles and pressures during the application period. Application schedule and other information for the different colleges and universities will be posted after the Career Orientation Week (second week of July). Other pertinent college application schedules and information will be posted thru the batch Yahoo groups, email, and through the Guidance Bulletin’s first issue for next school year.

Lastly, the University of the Philippines (UP) application form will be distributed starting on the second week of May. You may instruct your child to secure a copy of the form at the Guidance Office.
