The Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) had just opened the online application for 4th year high school students who want to take the PUP College Entrance Test (PUPCET).
PUPCET applicants must visit PUP's iApply website to register online. There is no manual application for the PUP Santa Mesa Campus. The only option for the PUPCET applicants who want to study at the PUP main campus is the online application.
Please take note that each applicant is only allowed to apply and take the PUPCET at one campus and only once this school year. Double application will result in the nullification of the applicant's PUPCET result.
