De La Salle University - DLSU (reviews)

De La Salle University has positioned itself not just in the aspect of academic excellence but also in the context of community service, diversity, and scientific research. It also develops the moral perspective of the students to conduct significant actions, beneficial to the team environment. As a Lasallian scholar, I can certainly say that the impression of affluence and not being able to form solid interactions among students are wrong, noting that the diversity of culture and neighbouring buildings enables the community to have a well-built network forth various thoughts and ideas. Moreover, DLSU is also a research-driven institution because it enhances theories, techniques, and technologies carries out industry practices and converts classroom learnings into real-life applications through the collaboration of different sectors both locally and globally.

The campus is large, and it still is. The only problem I encountered back then was the issue of the ratio of the number of students and the number of elevators in the Andrew building. Airconditioning units and computers (still in CRT then) were old in some classrooms and computer laboratories.

The professors all had their distinctive personalities, where our fates lie. Servers would crash then due to the number of students accessing the website during enrollment.

Student life would be dependent on what your passion is. Various organizations are available and they don’t require you to be in a certain department/specialization to join. It was already internationalized before, but maybe so much more now.

Career-wise, you’ll get to where you want to go with or without the school name. But, the alumni office and the job expo prepared by DLSU – Manila makes it easier to try for companies. Depending on your field, it could be competitive or may be smooth sailing, nonetheless, your skills honed by the school and by your very self will speak for themselves.

Some teachers were very understanding and some teachers were very strict. All in all, I had a very good experience studying at this school. This school thought its students how to think outside the box.

Life in school is great especially if there are so many activities to look forward to. I have gained a great number of friends, met great professors, learned the values of each individual every time we work on a project and engaged in so much creativity and fun work. La Salle is a great place to learn just because it is very diverse and the programs they are offering are focused.

De la Salle University is a very prestigious university in our country. It has stable and quality education with lots of programs that help develop the physical, intellectual, spiritual and upliftment of social status of the students. The sense of pride for school spirit apparent. Its mission for outreach and stewardship is admirable. Really good, decent, kind-hearted people are still there.
One of the cons though is the heavy traffic and polluted environment. Out of touch with the real world, perhaps, are some of those entrenched in the system. The environment could use a little stress-reliever. The academe administration should also nurture and recognize everyone’s potential better.
