The Graduate Level Test, or GLT, is designed to measure aptitudes which are deemed necessary for graduate study. The GLT yields the following scores: Verbal (V), Quantitative (Q), Inductive Reasoning (IR) and General Aptitude Score. V, Q and IR have a common standard score scale which makes possible the comparison of an examinee’s performance across the three subtests as well as comparison with the performance of the other examinees. The total testing time is approximately three hours.
The Testing Center will provide you with the information when you register for the exam.
The Graduate School does not have a minimum test score. An applicant’s performance on a standardized test is considered along with the other required admissions criteria. A GLT is not the sole criterion for regular or conditional admission
The Graduate School Dean conducts an interview as part of the admissions process.
In general, bridge courses are being offered in order to prepare you for the regular program coursework. You have to discuss this with the PC.
Quick estimate. Estimate the number of units you plan to take for the semester. Tuition and fees are subject to change. The most up-to-date tuition schedule is found in the XU website (https://xu.edu.ph (Tuition and Financial Aid). Compute the tuition fee by number of units multiplied by the current rate per unit, and compute the total of the Matriculation and Other Fees, then add the two.
Scholarships are available for tertiary teachers taking up graduate courses. XU has been identified as a delivering institution for CHED K to 12 Transition Program Scholarship. The information is posted in the CHED website at http://ched.gov.ph
The results of the entrance test are valid for 3 years.
All graduate programs at XU accept new applicants at any term.
The period allowed to complete a master’s program is 5 years; and, a Ph.D. program, 7 years. If you have exceeded—or are about to exceed—the time limit for your program, you need to process the returnee clearance form prior to enrollment.
