University of the Philippines (UP) is the only national university in the country. To date, it has seven constituent universities located in twelve campuses throughout the Philippine archipelago.
- UP Diliman (with an extension program in Pampanga)
- UP Baguio
- UP Los Baños
- UP Manila
- UP Visayas (Iloilo, Cebu/ Miagao, and Tacloban)
- UP Mindanao
- UP Open University (has its own admission test)
Many UP graduates have become prominent figures in the fields of politics and governance, engineering, education, literature, agriculture, medicine, the sciences, and the arts. That is why thousands are aspiring to be admitted into this very prestigious educational institution. Last year, over 67,000 students took the test. However, to maintain the university’s high standard of education and for more efficient utilization of its resources, limited slots are given to freshmen for admission to each campus and its various degree programs.
For the School Year 2011-2012, the University of the Philippines College Admission Test (UPCAT 2011) will be held on August 7 and August 8, 2010.
