Office of the Registrar

Vision / Mission Statement
The Registrar’s Office remains at the forefront of admissions and information – where students, applicants, alumni, parents, private and public organizations come and get information.
It is our vision to have this service easily accessible to everyone. This is also the place where documents and records issued by CHED and other government agencies such as the LEB, Department of Foreign Affairs, the Bureau of Immigration and Deportation, and TESDA are kept. Being the custodian of permanent files, the Registrar’s Office intends to use the “access and preserve” approach in records handling. An institution’s legacy is enshrined in its records because they speak of what was done, how it was done, why it was done, when it was done and who did it.
Goals

service to all clients: students, applicants, alumni, parents and institutions; - Responsiveness in the transmission of information related to course
structures and curricular matrices; - Access and preservation of permanent and vital records and proper retention and disposition of other collected data in relation to enrollment; and

The office operations of the Registrar’s Office cover the Student Records & Certification Unit, Evaluation and Reports Generation Unit, Enrollment, Scheduling, Foreign Student Admission, Graduate Education Evaluation and Extension Program Unit, Records Management and Data Processing Unit, and the Administrative and Technical Unit.
