EJAY FALCON – The actor-turned-politician has achieved a major milestone by earning his bachelor’s degree in Political Science.
Ejay is a notable actor, model, endorser, and politician. He gained widespread recognition in 2008 as the winner of Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition Plus, which marked the start of his successful acting career.

His film credits include Father Jejemon (2010), Amorosa: The Revenge (2012), and Felix Manalo (2015).
Falcon’s early life was marked by personal challenges, including his mother’s departure and financial difficulties. Despite these hurdles, he pursued a career in show business, initially working as a talent after failing to win a talent search competition. His persistence led him to guest roles and eventually major acting parts on both television and film.
In addition to his entertainment career, Falcon served in the Philippine Air Force from 2019 to 2020. His foray into politics began in 2022 when he was elected Vice Governor of Oriental Mindoro, running under the PDP–Laban party.

After 17 years, Falcon, now the Vice Governor of Oriental Mindoro, graduated from the University of Makati’s College of Continuing, Advanced, and Professional Studies with a degree in Political Science, majoring in Local Governance.
Reflecting on his journey, Falcon expressed disbelief and gratitude, stating, “Everything still feels surreal to me. I never thought I’d still be able to wear a toga, go up on the stage, and get my diploma,” He added: “Ever since I stopped school to start providing for my family, I also stopped envisioning myself to be in this moment, to experience this incredible life milestone.”
