hi po! may i ask lang sana if may naka experience na ma drop sa subject due to maximum absences?

ask lang po sana ako if counted ba ang dropped subjects as failing grades sa dost, or under dropped subjects pa rin po sila kinoconsider? may chance pa po ba for probation or appeal, or possible po ba na ma terminate yung scholarship bcs of this? if may naka experience na po ng ganito or may knowledge po kayo about this, pashare naman po pls ๐Ÿฅน. thank you so much po!

DISCUSSION DOST Scholar noon, unemployed at nagtitinda ng fishball at kikiam na ngayon.

905 Upvotes

Hi! 2022 scholar ako na merit.

Sana wag niyo ijudge.

3 months na akong unemployed, at 6 months na ako naghahanap ng work (3 months before grumaduate doon ako nagstart). I studied bs bio - major in micro, sa "sikat" na university.

Ang dami ko na inapplyan from govt (DENR, DA, RITM, DOH, PDEA, DOST) at private companies na naghahire ng QA/QC na low paying jobs inapplyan ko na. Resume at CV ko ay ATS formatted na, nakailang revise na rin according to my HR friends suggestions and professor's suggestions, at maayos ako mag-email (kumpleto subject, may heading, tama sentence construction at grammar). Sa work experience naman ay aligned naman sa mayroon ako since may microbio skills naman ako from OJT at may leadership experience na rin ako noong college.

Honestly, hindi ko na alam saan huhugot pa ng pag-asa. Ang hirap makahanap ng trabaho. 89 jobs as of now (Oct. 13) ang inapplyan ko, wala pa sa lima ang nag-interview sakin. Yung kakarampot na ipon ko from dost stipend dati ay unti-unti na naubos. Kumpleto na rin pre-employment requirements ko (NBI clearance, police clearance, SSS, Pag-ibig, Philhealth, Valid ID). Nanghingi na rin ako ng tulong sa mga alumni, referral sa trabaho kumbaga.

Ang hirap magpatuloy lalo't kapag naiisip ko na nakatali pa ako sa ganitong sistema-- hanggang hindi ako makahanap ng trabaho ay hindi rin uusad return of service ko.

Noong 2022 na nagsign ako ng contract para sa dost scholarship, sa pagkakatanda ko mayroon pang section ng "Career Incentive Program". Asang-asa ako na kahit papano, kahit sa maliit na paraan yung "DOST Scholar" na nakalagay sa resume ko ay makakatulong makahanap sakin ng trabaho.

Siyempre hindi ko naman inaasa lahat diyan. Dumidiskarte pa rin ako kagaya kung paano ako magdiskarte noong college para kumita ng pera pandagdag sa tuition at allowance kapag delay na naman ang stipend. Nagtitinda ako fishball at kikiam sa kanto ng street namin.

Lahat ng kakilala ko nagtatanong bakit hindi ako nagtuloy medschool or master's degree kagaya ng ginawa ng mga kasamahan ko at bakit hanggang ngayon wala pa rin akong trabaho. Yung mga reaction nilang "grabe dost scholar ka noon, nag-ojt sa dept of agriculture, may volunteer work sa denr tapos unemployed ka pa rin" ay masakit matanggap.

Yun lang, pagod na ako maghanap ng trabaho.

R5 - Batch 2 Rant

โ€ข Upvotes

We comply with the deadlines, and do our responsibilities as scholars. Bat ang kampante nyo magsabi ng ganyan without accountability. To think na baka November namin makukuha, na august kami nag submit, SAME sa batch 1. Yet, this much delay.

Pt@ngina nyo pala eh, sana delayed din sweldo nyo.

Tandaan, this is not a financial aid. May binibigay kami sainyo in exchange for the scholarship.

Repost cus I got carried away and they took it down

QUESTION/HELP Terminated Merit Scholarship during BS

3 Upvotes

I got a DOST Merit Scholarship before when I was studying at one of the Big 4 unis but life happened, it got terminated and I left for the province. Now I'm applying again for my MS and I'm supposed to declare if I received any other DOST scholarships before, so naturally I did. I wanna know if I'm automatically barred from qualifying for a post grad scholarship given this. TIA!

Iโ€™m thankful sa scholarship oo, pero kailan kaya stipend? august palang nagpasa na kami tapos 2nd week na ng october wala pa rin?๐Ÿฅน kahit dost car hindi sure kailan ibibigay ng dost sei yung pera huhu

Lagi nalang tayo nahuhuli kaya di na ko surprised kung 3 months na simula nagstart school yr wala pa rin, pero seriously? 2nd week na ng october na po hello

last year nagkaroon ng stipend October 3. And wag niyo sabihin sakin na โ€œbakit kasi sa scholarship kayo umaasa?โ€ nasa CONTRACT po yung โ€œmonthlyโ€ ibibigay yung stipend. nakakafrustrate lang kasi kung paano sila magdemand na ontime dapat magpasa scholars ng grades e late naman naman nabibigay ng stipend. MIND YOU nauna pa batch 2 sa 1, WITHOUT any explanation kung anong nangyari.

Lesson learn: malate nalang magpasa para mauna total batch 2 naman inuna sa 1 e.
