These are the Central Philippines University (CPU), University of San Agustin (USA), Colegio De San Jose (CSJ), University of Iloilo (UI), Iloilo Doctor’s College (IDC), Systems Technology Institute (STI) and Colegio Del Sagrado Corazon De Jesus (CSCJ).

Meanwhile, the start of classes for tertiary level will be on the first Monday of June and not later than June 27.
“But still, it depends to the school calendars of state universities and colleges (SUCs),” said Engr. Rex C. Casiple, officer-in-charge of CHED Region 6.
CHED is yet to receive the school calendar of HEIs that will start either in July or August. [via PNA]
