Application for PE Exemption

Physical Education (PE) Exemption - Certain conditions will allow you to gain exemption from the eight (8)-unit PE requirement:

1) If you have reached the age of 30 or older at the time of your first enrollment/admission to your program.

2) If you have a physical/health condition that does not allow for physical exertion.

3) If you are serving/have served full-time in the Philippine military for at least 2 years (Armed Forces, Navy, or Air Force).

4) If you are a veteran of the Philippine military (Armed Forces, Navy, or Air Force).

5) If you have already finished a Bachelor's degree or Associate degree (only provided that you had already taken PE courses in this previous academic program). Note: If this applies to you, you should apply for a transfer of credits (TOC) for these PE courses instead of requesting for exemption from the PE requirement. For further information on how to apply for TOC, you may refer to this link.

Application Period: Ideally, before the registration during your first term in the program.
