Colegio De San Juan De Letran – Manaoag

Colegio de San Juan de Letran – Manaoag is a Catholic educational institution located in Manaoag, Pangasinan, Philippines, with a history rooted in the Dominican educational tradition. The institution traces its beginnings to the Holy Rosary Academy of Manaoag, founded in 1947 by Rev. Fr. Teodulo Cajigal, OP to provide Catholic education to the children of Manaoag.

Originally established as an elementary school, the institution expanded to offer a complete high school program in 1949 and received government recognition in 1951. Over the following decades, the school was administered by various Dominican and Franciscan religious congregations before the Dominican Fathers assumed administration in 1982.

From Academy to College

In July 2000, the Board of Trustees of the Holy Rosary Academy decided to expand its educational services by offering collegiate programs. The institution was renamed Our Lady of Manaoag College, and it began operating as a college in June 2001.

The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) granted the institution permission to offer college programs in Arts and Humanities, Education, Business, and Computer Education. TESDA also authorized vocational programs, including Computer Programming, Computer Secretarial, and Computer Technology.

Integration into the Letran System

In 2012, the Dominican Province of the Philippines decided to align its educational institutions under two traditions: the UST Tradition and the Letran Tradition. Our Lady of Manaoag College was placed under the Letran group.

Following the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement in 2014 and approval by the school’s Board of Trustees, the institution officially became Colegio de San Juan de Letran – Manaoag. The new name was formally launched on October 3, 2014.
