Baui said he decided to accept Xavier University’s offer to pursue Bachelor of Science in Architecture.

“‘Yun po yung pinakamataas na na-receive kong scholarship, which costs P1.5 million per year, into five years of my course…. Then probably it will cost me, I will receive a scholarship approximately P7 million,” he said.

“Ang makamit ang isang pangarap ay napakagaan sa loob. It is only a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so I’m really willing to grab it,” he added.

Baui also passed entrance exams in Enderun Colleges, De La Salle University- Dasmariñas, University of Santo Tomas, Far Eastern University and University of Saint Louis-Tuguegarao
