Second Degrees


A student who has successfully completed a degree program can pursue another degree within the same level.

Baccalaureate Degree
Only one (1) baccalaureate degree may be conferred at a time. A holder of a bachelor’s degree from the University may earn another bachelor’s degree upon the successful completion of at least 36 additional units prescribed by a discipline, after the previous degree. (For those who earned their bachelor’s degree from another University, see Transfer Admission from other Universities)

Master’s Degree
A student who has earned a master’s degree in the University can earn another master’s degree provided the following requirements are satisfied:
1) Earn in the University at least 18 graduate units in addition to the course requirements common to both degrees; and
2) Complete all the requirements of the second master’s degree.

These additional units are exclusive of the thesis, or of other requirements in lieu of thesis, and shall be in advanced courses in the student’s major field and cognates from other related graduate courses in the University that may strengthen the new area of specialization.

    Hello,

    I am a graduate of BSIT at a non-UP school. I'm planning to take Fine Arts at UP Diliman. Is it possible for me to take it as second degree course?

      Yes if you pass their requirements. Please contact the College of Fine Arts for the process and details. Thanks.

      BA or BAA in UP Diliman isn't open as a second undergraduate degree. If you wish, you can finish your current course and enroll in MSBA, which of course has an entrance exam.

    Hi, I am from UP Manila and will soon be a graduate of BA Philippine Arts. However, I still want to apply for a second degree, BA Fine Arts in UP Diliman. Is it possible? If yes, am I still supposed to enroll for the GEs or general subjects that I've taken up before? (considering that it's just a change of campus hahahuhu)

    I hope you can help me. Hehe thanks a lot

      Hi! Yes, you can still apply for a second degree in Fine Arts. The GE requirements you have already satisfied in BA PhilArts are carried over since you acquired it from a UP Constituent Unit.
