UP VSB Student Handbook by UP Business Administration Council

THE

UP VSB

STUDENT

HANDBOOK 2013

Welcome to VSB! SBSC has a lot of exciting things in store for you this year so in order for you to have a relatively hassle free school year, we partnered up with Guilder for a student handbook that can be used as a reference for your daily needs. Through initiatives like this, we are looking forward to serving you better this year! Marching on towards ONE VSB,

THE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS STUDENT COUNCIL

The warmest greetings, schoolmates! Welcome back to college and a year’s worth of studies, orgs, and life! In our college, it’s extraordinary how we are faced with a problem in one moment and get to pass the deliverable in the next. The common word: it was hard, but we made it through. The less common yet prudent afterthought would be: was the hardship necessary? Indeed, to get around the college, habit, experience, and the grapevine are good references. A formal college primer would be better. The Student Council and Guilder Institute present to you the Student Handbook, now on its 3rd edition. It is designed to inform the students of the procedures that can support one’s endeavors in the Virata School of Business. How to’s, maps, directories, tips and more - all in one document. Truly, it is the efficient way to get around. Read up and apply generously! We wish everyone the best! 2
