When I immigrated to the USA 20 years ago, my degree was credited without any problems. This shows that a DLSU degree is comparable to a degree in the United States. This enabled me to work at a professional job with ease.
That's great info. Many worries of the students here are whether or not the degree is credited abroad. With that being said, what degree program did you come from?
You make it sound like only DLSU among the many universities in the Philippines is recognized in the US. I graduated from a university in Northern Luzon and all I had to do was pass the licensure exam and now Americans entrust their lives to me on the operating table as a surgeon.
FYI. Thousands upon thousands of universities around the world are recognized by the U.S. as long as they’re accredited by the International Association of Universities. From the poorest country of Burundi to one of the most affluent countries like Switzerland. Ask any top Forbes companies about DLSU. They haven’t a clue what the acronym even stands for.
Top notch content broo!. Loved seeing different perspective and views of people. Been an silently Fan right here but think I do need to show my outpouring support by liking and watching your vids. 👍
@@summervallejaverde3452 I went to an Australian university and generally most Commonwealth countries (former British colonies) have similar standards. Indians and Chinese who live outside China are really focused on STEM subjects. Hence - a region called Bay Area in California have a lot of developers/coders coming from countries who have the education system that is more on STEM.
I'm an MFI grad from DLSU, batch 2000. I'm glad to see younger MFI students from my Alma Mater. Enjoy your time in college, guys. My fondest memories were the ones I spent in DLSU. I'm going home to the P.I. and excited to show my sons the campus in case they plan to go back to the P.I. for college.
I have separate thoughts about the "not speaking English prof" thing... Philippines is the only country where you shame the locals for not speaking English!? Like when people want to study in Japan they will make an effort to Learn Nihonggo... you don't have to be fluent in Tagalog to understand it lmao. Always remember that you're in a different country. I also find it bothering that "educated" = "english speaker" I mean it could be true and there could be a study or correlation about it.... but come on; learn basic Filipino! Preserve the culture, Filipinos aren't here to spoon feed everyone. P.S I AM NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT FOREIGNERS, THERE ARE FILIPINOS WHO CAN'T SPEAK FILIPINO WHO GREW UP IN THE PHILIPPINES :)
Great point. I agree with you. I think people now have the notion that the Philippines is a "English-speaking nation" which gives some foreigners the option to not fully immerse and learn the language. On the other hand, to the locals who can't speak Filipino, I personally think the colonial mentality has a part to play in it.
True. Some Filipinos born and raised in Philippines, don't speak Tagalog because they speak their own dialect, but I think they adapt if they put into a situation where they need to speak tagalog
I’m reminded by College admissions professionals and comments of people who went to Harvard. It’s hard to get in but once you are in, it’s not that hard.
I am very curious with the Indian guy who says that "studies are not that hard." Really curious because his answer to "course or major" was not shown in this video - Accountancy, Engineering, Math, Computer Science? On the rivalry with Ateneo, it is just friendly banter now. There are siblings who study in both schools. My cousins went to Ateneo, while I and some other cousins went to La Salle. At work, alumni of both schools are friends and work well together. Generally, they belong to a similar demographic. DLSU has a lot of technical courses like Accounting, Engineering while Ateneo is "less" technical so they do not offer Accounting and hardcore Engineering courses. Much like Yale not really offers "technical courses" like accounting while others do - such as U Penn.
@@Takaaa01 Thanks for your reply. Duly noted. That said, a lot of Indians excel in technical courses. That is why there are plenty of them in comp sci, accounting, doctor of medicine. There are Indian doctors in almost every hospital here in the US
the half-aussie-filipino guy complaining about professors not speaking english all the time in a PH university because he cant understand filipino. that is just wild.
English is supposed to be used as the primary language in commerce and education in the Philippines, it's advertised that way, and is generally that way, so he's not incorrect to complain about it.
The title turned out to be deceptive. They're not foreigners after all but half Filipino breeds. That's the problem with some vloggers. They're not straightforward if only to draw some audience. How can one now expect to be followed?
Here is another side of the coin: Would a half-Filipino born abroad and raised abroad who knows nothing about the Philippines apart from their mother or father be considered a local immediately once they set foot in the Philippines? In my books, I don't think so. Or would a foreigner/half-blood raised in a different culture household be considered a Filipino? That is part of the 3rd culture sydrome. With that being said, I understand your point as it is somewhat a "gray area". But stay tuned tho because il be making a video on 3rd culture syndromes.
Unless it’s a Filipino class, “Profs”please be more professional and live up to your title by simply speaking straight and good English…it doesn’t have to be perfect…the shame that you can’t even do that
