• Policy on Students Affected by the Implementation of the
K to 12 Program and the New General Curriculum
• Category 1: High school graduates of SHS early adopters
intending to enrol by June 2017
Subject to school policy, only courses taken in grades XI and XII
which fall under the heading of General Education shall be
considered for unit crediting provided that the admitting institution
is implementing the current GE
In case the admitting institution is an early implementer of the
revised GE curriculum, there shall be no crediting of units
Other Concerns
•Category 2: High school graduates of the old basic
education curriculum intending to enroll by June
2018.
Students who graduated in high school on or
before June 2016 may enroll in HEIs as first year
college students under the new higher education

education curricula, the admitting HEIs may
Other Concerns
•Category 3: First year, second year, third year
forth year, or sixth year college students under the
old higher education curricula who stopped
schooling and intend to re-enroll by June 2018

These students may re-enroll in any HEI which

shall be offering the new higher education curricula
subject to admission requirements of the admitting
HEI.
Other Concerns
However, since the new higher education curricula
includes new GE curricula:
• The HEI has the option to give the students
bridging program or require the students to
enroll the courses under new GE curricula.
• For professional or major subjects taken by the
students other than GE, HEIs may implement
their own requirements of policy for crediting
Other Concerns

•What will happen if an HEI failed to comply with

the provisions of the PSGs?
