The application period for Ateneo college admission for School Year 2023-2024 opens today, Monday, 1 August 2022.
This application period will see the return of the Ateneo College Entrance Test (ACET), which was suspended for two years due to the pandemic. The revived ACET is a refreshed version of the examination, seen to help assess applicants better.
