For Applicants with Specific Education Needs:

De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde aims to provide educational opportunities for diversely gifted learners, including applicants with specific education needs (SEN). The final acceptance or non-acceptance of SEN applicants is based on the merits of their application and the ability of the College to provide services for their conditions.

SEN applicants refer to those who have a physical disability (e.g., heart condition, visual/hearing impairment), specific learning needs (e.g., dyslexia, ADHD, ASD), or a psychological/mental health condition that affected schooling before/or may affect schooling at Benilde.

SEN applicants are advised to apply earlier to avoid delays in application processing.

Note that if this is not disclosed during the application, the College is not obliged to provide the applicant with any support or reasonable accommodation about the condition and will be treated as a regular applicant/student.
