PRINCIPAL’S WELCOME
We have a strong tradition of academic excellence here at ARELLANO UNIVERSITY, and many of our
graduates have gone on to make positive changes in the world.
We will do everything we can to make sure that you are set up for purpose for success. There will be many
options available for each one of you so that you can work on your maximum academic capacity. When you
finally cross our graduation stage, we want you to be ready to face College or find your place as an entrepreneur
or an employee in the sector of the industry where you are confidently competent.
If you feel that you are struggling in a course or subject, you can ask for help. We will do our best to see that you
get what you need in order to succeed. It is also important to note that learning will only take place if you do

You need to be present, ready to engage, and take care of the assigned work at hand. Graduation day comes
