Do we have to pay for this?
Billy: no you don't have to pay but this is a competitive selection of fellows for the workshop.
Do you have to be a Philippino citizen to apply?
Ok, assuming i would be selected,
Will i shoulder my own fare?
IM from Cotabato? is there a registration fee?
thanks..
@Heather: yes, you have to be a Filipino Citizen
@Gerald: No reg fee but you have to pay for the airfare. When you get to Manila, we'll see if AILAP can subsidize your airfare barring budgetary constraints.
can we submit entries online? if so, what will the subject be?
we don't accept online entries. you either drop by the Ateneo and the Kagawaran ng Filipino office or send by mail or courier your suite of poems or collection of stories.
Topic and subject is open. write about what ever you want.
Hi. I am excited to participate. I just would like to know if there are any specifications on the entries i.e. font, line spacing, margins, prescribed length of paper. thanks po!
and also.. if i submitted to ANWW can i be qualified for UBOD? thanks again.
@my secret: bahala na ang applicant sa style ng kanyang entry pero size 8.5X11 ang paper na gamitin. Maganda rin sana na double spaced at 1" margins.
At oo, basta wala ka pang nalalathalang libro pwede kang mag-apply sa UBOD at pwede ka ring sabay na nag-apply sa ANWW.
maaari ba na lumagpas sa 5 ang ipasa na tula? o kinakailangang eksaktong 5 lang? maraming salamat!
@patrick: stick lang sana sa bilang ng mga tula. pero wala namang penalty ang magpasa nang lagpas doon. Mas madami nga lang ang tsansa ang mga pipili ng fellows na makapuna ng iyong mga akda.
Am currently gathering my entries. Ask ko lang kung pwedeng saturday mag-submit August 29. Until what time open po ang office niyo po? Thanks po.
Sa Saturday, bukas hanggang tanghali pero tatanggap pa rin kami ng entries hanggang tuesday, Sept. 1.
ipapadala ko tru mail yung sa'kin by aug 31. ayos lang ba kung makarating yun sa inyo ng mga sept 1 or lagpas pa, pero postmarked sa date of the deadline?
@dante: oo, basta dumating sa amin ng sept. 1, tatanggapin ng AILAP ang lahat ng entries para sa ANWW at UBOD
It's good news that the deadline was moved to Sept. 1. Until what time will you be accepting entries. Speaking of entries, once submitted to AILAP, will it be owned by AILAP? What are the grounds for copyright? Thanks po.
@my secret: applicants retain all copyright and AILAP has no claim to the copyright. All entries are just kept in file.
