The passing percentage of first-time takers of the university is 76% or 38 out of 50 takers. Meanwhile, the overall performance of CPU is 65.15% or 43 passers out of 66 takers. The national passing percentage is 37.75%.

Ms. Narido conveyed her gratefulness to God. She wrote, “I am ecstatic and so grateful for this victory. This is a testament of God’s grace in my life. His grace abounds even more in our weaknesses.

I am so grateful for my family, my beloved friends, my professors, and to everyone who has ever put their faith in me. To God be the glory!”

My congratulations to all who passed the board exams too and we offer to the Lord Almighty the success that our graduates had attained. My congratulations also to Prof. Kareen Jay Lozada and to all faculty of the Social Work Department.”
