DLSU-D offers Junior High School (still as of now), Senior High School, and College levels.

DID YOU KNOW THAT?

BY SOPHIA ANGELA M. MALIG-ON

De La Salle University DasmariĂąas has been officially recognized by the Guinness World Records for the largest umbrella mosaic formed by people.

Animosaic is a way of honoring the founder, St. John Baptist De La Salle on his 300th feast day.

BY BRYAN D. HEBREO

CREATING POSSIBILITIES

The university was established on July 18, 1977, as a private nonsectarian tertiary school named General Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite and managed by the Yaman Lahi Foundation. In 1987, ownership and management were transferred to Frère (St.) Bénilde Romançon Educational Foundation Inc., a sister corporation of De La Salle University-Manila. It became a Catholic institution under the name De La Salle University-Emilio Aguinaldo College. In 1992, the name DLSU-EAC was changed to De La Salle University-Aguinaldo. In 1997, the institution's name was changed again. It is now called De La Salle University – Dasmariñas to avoid confusion with the Emilio Aguinaldo College Cavite campus.

Facilities With a sprawling campus like De La Salle University-Dasmariñas, one can expect one’s campus experience to be extraordinary. From classrooms to state-of-the-art laboratories, and even recreational venues available at every corner, students get their pick of venues to hold their events, whether it be outdoors to soak in the beauty of nature, or indoors with a selection of formal ballrooms, conference halls, auditoriums, study nooks, and viewing rooms.

With a classic 19th century feel, the Cultural Heritage Complex offers the feeling of traveling through the time of the Ilustrados.
