Do We Prefer Studying in the Philippines ? 🇵🇭 [Korean Students in the BIG FOUR University]

[@AngryKittens]

The increased tuition fee is the same in every country. In New Zealand for example, the tuition for foreign students was like almost a million pesos for a SINGLE semester in a small college for a very basic course. But for citizens, it's only half of that on average because the government subsidizes their tuition. It's the same in the Philippines. Especially for state universities like UP where tuition is almost free, while foreign students have to pay like I think 10k to 30k.

[@chilliwarzner1886]

Very informative 👌 the guy is nothing bad to his saying I hope he will read this 😁✌️✌️

[@bargainhuntermama]

Exactly. It's the same here in the US . International students have to pay more in tuition.

[@zakkarawylde151]

10k-30k is cheap. Here in Canada the tuirion for int'l student is within 600-800k a year.

[@tatamic1230]

Kristy, when i was a Grab Driver then, my most Favorite passenger is students from La salle Taft, because, you are all down to earth. Doesn't matter if la salle is let's just say, exclusive? Pero ang ugali ninyo kakaiba kumpara sa Ibang Private school. Masaya kayong maging Pasahero. La salle students, treated me with "Respect" as if their own family.😊❤️

[@joodeki]

Foreigners pay more for school because of job issues (other than greed, of course). If your country has too many foreigners going to your local schools and then the foreigners return home for a job. That country basically lost a class seat for a local student that could have been a local worker. But if that foreigner studied locally and got a local job, then the country "gave away" a local job to a foreigner. The higher tuition cost for foreigners is to dissuade poor foreigners from getting "cheap" schooling at the local country. Lots of countries have regulations against hiring a foreigner when a local person could do the job. Another reason is because foreigners do not pay taxes to the local government. The local government usually collects taxes to provide funds for a local school. So basically, the locals pays as much as foreigners if the taxes local students (and parents) paid to the government are included into the calculation. So, in short, locals paid taxes to fund the schools, but foreigners didn't. And governments are trying to control how many foreigners can replace the local workers without losing a local workforce. The tuition is even worse in the US for foreign students. Trust me unironically, bros.

LS Trivia: The Irish-American Christian Brothers of pre-war De La Salle College, Taft developed a very deep personal bond with all their students and it's families. Being a Lasallite before was a family and neighborhood tradition. Everyone in your family members and neighbors were all Lasallites. Lasallian families go several generations deep, starting from your grandfather down to your own son and nephews. Lasallian and Atenean families had generational animosity against each other. It all gets complicated and crazy when family members oppose each other stemming from their traditional school feud. Those were the old fun days, when life was a lot simpler and more enjoyable.

[@hyunapark5799]

I live near la salle, just in the residence. And I must say the school can speak for itself on why it's so expensive. I've seen artists who come here because they used to study here, and if you go to starbucks you'd see more foreigner than filipino's since it is.. considered a prestigious school.

[@deangomez9268]

DLS Trivia: Most of the Lasallian buildings, and various campuses with all its modern facilities were generously provided by several of La Salle's billionaire die-hard alumni. La Salle's die-hard, fiercely loyal alumni gave generously hundreds of millions and billions of pesos worth of infrastructure to their favorite alma mater are from La Salle's grade school, high school, and college alumni. Lasallian Billionaires - Henry Sy's 4 sons, Enrique Zobel, Don Paquito Ortigas, Jorge Araneta National Artist for Architecture Leandro Locsin, Amb. Danding Cojuangco, Amb. Ramon del Rosario, Amb. Alphonso Yuchengco, USec - Engr. Velasco, USec Peter Garrucho, Usec Ramon del Roasio Jr., Direk Peque Gallaga, McDonald's Philippine franchise owner - George T. Yang and 7-11/Wendys hamburger franchise owner - Sec. Jose Pardo with his brother-in-law Senator Ting Paterno and several more.

I am an Isko (UP), but I highly commend La Salle graduates especially Business Mgt graduates. They are the best in establishing their own businesses right after graduation.

[@zakkarawylde151]

Yes because they have Rich Dads and connections which an Isko has not.

[@piagarcia3617]

That has more to do, I think, with their connections rather than the school.

As a lasallian graduate, I can relate with the tuition fee 😅. The first time I enrolled, the entrance fee is 500 but year by year it increases especially when you are a graduating student.😢

[@Jesus-The-Everlasting-Father]

Even here in the States, out-of-State students pay double the amount of tuition fee than State residents students. For example, if you are a California resident and studying in New York, your tuition fee is almost doubled than New Yorker students.

[@toddpadilla8451]

I am from California, and if a non resident student attends any of the local state sponsored city colleges, there's a difference in tuition fees between a non resident and a California resident students.

[@rainbowcolorslyn8002]

Hi I live here in the UK it’s the same, international student pays more than home student! I think it’s also same for Filipinos studying in Korea? There is always advantage for being citizen in a country….in reality La Salle is one of the most expensive school in the Phil but basically much cheaper done studying in the UK or US.

[@fridahorme5698]

In the US, you pay out of state fees meaning if you live in California or a resident of California, you pay extra if you study outside of California. International students even pay more, a lot more, so it's not just in the Philippines.

[@chadlukas]

The tuition increase is really unfortunate but it is the same in the US as well. Out of State students pay more than State residents, then foreign students pay even more plus tons of other fees with it.

All Lasallian schools in the Philippines constantly upgrade their school facilities. The DLSU that I knew in 1980 is strangely very different from what students enjoy today. The campus is constantly physically and technologically upgraded and its facilities are kept in accordance with modern technological needs to provide all Lasallians with updated learning convenience the way that only your DLSU can and will surely provide.

Regarding calculator, I didn't know it'll be a culture shock but you know, you still have to learn how to use it, the functions, etc. And you still need to show how you solve the equation. But sometimes they're not allowed, depending on the subject. In statistics, using calculator isn't really the struggle but the subject itself 😂

[@politicfrog]

[@lepunksmoothie]

I taught some Korean university students from DSLU ESL/EFL back in mid-2000's. Even back then, DLSU already had a lot of foreign students, esp Koreans, so I'm not surprised that you didn't experience any barrier between Filipino and Korean students. La Salle graduates are generally easy-going, pragmatic, level-headed, easy to get along with, and are efficient team players.

Huhuhu. As an Accountancy grad, cant live without calcu.

In Canada, where I live, foreign students are also charged 2-3 times more than the local students, reason is because they don’t pay their tax here. That might also be the reason for foreign students in the Philippines.

Korean Education System is really hard based on my students. I feel bad for them because they study from morning until late at night. From Elementary to Highschool they go to the academy after school. They don't even want to get 1 wrong from their test. It should be perfect. Also with the calculator. I literally explained what is a calculator to my students because they didn't use it ever. hahaha

[@rap3208]

All i've read about Korean school life was from elementary to high school, the kids study hard just for the goal of getting to the university you wish to go, but when they succeed in getting there, college life is a lot more relaxed than elementary and high school. It is the opposite in the Philippines wher you are allowed to enjoy your youth (elementary and high school) and then you have to study hard in college where you aim to learn your major for your intended career.

[@deangomez9268]

All of the 16 Lasallian Mission schools annually provide a lot of tuition-free Lasallian education to thousands of 19 year olds and older working students up to the senior age of 60 years. There are several free vocational courses that are provided for its student to learn several income generating skills that would provide them employment. Several Lasallian alumni associations provide the financing sustainability for this charitable endeavour. The Lasallian alumni provide the job opportunities by absorbing several working students scholars in their own companies that they manage and lead.

[@pauliejojo8241]

Whenever someone from a foreign land, ended up studying in Dela Salle, they adopted the conyo way of the Lasallians.

[@jujojuja]

My son graduated from Lasalle Bacolod, They have 4 classes of tuition fees. So the tuition fee varies depends on your class. Class D has the cheapest tuition fee and Class A as themost expensive. Parents will have to submit their Income Tax Return for them to identify on which Class your tuition fall under. So, the rich kids and foreigners pay more.

[@BbNanay]

Here in the states, out of state students pay more & foreign students pay even more too. I honestly think that’s fair. Tuition also increase every year, even during the pandemic when classes were online. University cost in the US is so high it’s disgusting. It feels like scam.

[@perrydannymunoz3076]

I think more often than not, it’s mostly the same for any foreigners having more expensive tuition fees in other countries just like the rest of the world.. for instance a Filipino studying here in Canada pays twice or thrice the tuition fee compared to a citizen of the country…i think

[@Naobe02]

Actually fees are getting higher and higher even for locals.. imagine in the covid times my son’s tuition fee is just few thousands less than normal but it was just online classes. But according to my relatives abroad it’s not just Ph it is happening all over the world but if u will compare it to other countries Ph still way way cheaper but quality education. I think it’s also to control the fluctuation of foreign students, ex here in Las Pinas nursing schools here majority now is foreign students and they keep on coming and coming. One day ph government will most likely control that and the fees for foreigners will be much more higher private schools will take advantage of that. Here in my place omg left and right neighbors are Indians Africans Chinese etc.. they said in their classroom of 30 only 5-8 locals some even lower.
