Palaris Colleges is a pioneer private educational institution in San Carlos City, Pangasinan, Philippines, established on July 1, 1946. Known as the “School of the Carleñans,” the institution provides academic programs designed to serve students in the community, from basic education to higher education.
Palaris Colleges was established through the initiative of fifteen civic-spirited citizens who shared a vision of creating an efficient private learning institution in San Carlos City. Among the founders were Prof. Nemesio R. Ceralde, Mr. Ricardo Magleo, and Dr. Francisco Untalan.
The school’s incorporation papers were approved on July 1, 1946, and it initially opened with 237 students and seven instructors. Originally named Palaris Academy, the institution was named after Pantaleon Perez, popularly known as “Juan dela Cruz Palaris,” a renowned local hero from Binalatongan, now San Carlos City.
Originally established as a junior college, Palaris gradually expanded its academic offerings over the years. In 1971, it officially acquired its present title as a full college system.
Palaris Colleges combines a long history of private education with a commitment to serving the Carleñan community. With programs in teacher education, business administration, and hospitality management, the institution provides students with diverse opportunities for professional and academic development.
