A Complete List of Recognized Colleges and Universities in Manila, Philippines
97The City of Manila
They say if you make it in New York, you'll make it anywhere. I say if your child graduates from college in the city of Manila, you have a child who's ready to face the harsh part of the working world.
The traffic, the smoke, the constraints of dorms and boarding houses, the daily encounters with all kinds of people, the race for jeepneys and buses, the stretching of the peso, the struggles to complete projects without any help from parents or siblings, and the lack of comforts normal at home -- these are the things that will make your child strong.
Since Manila is the oldest of the cities that make up what has been called Metro Manila, it's here where most of the public and private universities built their campuses. There are now other large universities outside Manila, but many of the biggest universities are still in Manila, with a number of them establishing bigger campuses in the suburbs, where plenty of open land is still available.
Here's a list of colleges and universities in the city of Manila, part of Metro Manila or the National Capital Region (NCR), which are recognized by the Commission on Higher Education.
There are 2,180 higher education institutions (HEIs) in the country as of August 2010, according to the CHED, with most of the HEIs in the Metro Manila area or NCR and in Region 4A (Calabarzon Region). HEIs refer to colleges, universities, institutes and other post-secondary learning institutions.
The NCR hosts 312 HEIs and Region IV-A hosts 276 HEIs. Region III (Central Luzon) follows with 227 HEIs.
Of the 2,180 HEIs, 607 or 27.84 percent are public, and 1,573 or 72.16 percent are private.
