FAR EASTERN UNIVERSITY Far Eastern University (FEU) was founded in 1928 as a private, non-sectarian institution of learning. Guided by the core values of Fortitude, Excellence, and Uprightness, it aims to be a university of choice in Asia. Committed to the highest intellectual, moral, and cultural standards, the university strives to produce principled and professionally competent graduates; and it nurtures a service-oriented and environment-conscious community that seeks to contribute to the advancement of the global society. Tuition and other fees, which are the main sources of its financial stability, are moderate and subject to government regulation. Full and partial scholarship grants are also awarded to deserving students. FEU maintains excellent facilities to best serve the schooling experience of its students. These include, among others, a library with an expanding electronic footprint; laboratories of various types; audio-visual and multi-media rooms including smart classrooms; conference, meeting, and multi-function rooms; auditoriums, gyms, and other sports facilities; a clinic; an information- technology enabled gate security system; and an integrated cloud-based, enterprise-software (NetSuite) enrollment and financial system. All classrooms are spacious and air-conditioned – the ambient temperature powered campus-wide by an environmentally friendly and, apparently thus far, the only district-cooling system in the Philippines. It also uses a state-of-the-art learning management system, Canvas of Instructure. The university’s high standard of quality is substantiated by numerous recognitions from the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) as well as accrediting bodies such as the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA) and the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges, and Universities (PAASCU).
