Established in 1979, The City College is an independent institution for local and international students. Over the years thousands of students have successfully completed their studies at The City College and have progressed to higher studies in British and American Universities or secured successful careers in a variety of fields.
As well as maintaining high academic standards and providing quality tuition, The City College is noted for its prompt response to the education and training developments in the global market.
The environment at The City College is truly international as the majority of the students are from various countries of the world. The majority of its students join The City College as a result of recommendations from past or existing students.
The City College has a friendly and informal environment though we aim to have a disciplined approach to study. The academic atmosphere of the College is very evident to visitors, who comment on the quiet, purposeful atmosphere that pervades the building.
Our education philosophy is to provide our students with the resources necessary to become well-rounded, highly motivated candidates for their chosen career.
We strive to provide an affordable learning experience in a supportive and caring environment that leads students to successfully complete their goals.
The City College was one of the first private colleges in the country to achieve accreditation and then one of the first to have a partnership with a State University and to offer British undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. Over the past three decades and more, The City College has formed a number of partnerships with International colleges and universities that ensure our brand is well known and respected across the Globe. In recent months we have formed a relationship with the AMA group of 200 universities and colleges in the Philippines.
