The Adventist University of the Philippines is a private Christian coeducational higher education institution located in Silang, Cavite, Philippines. The university is affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It holds an autonomous status granted by the Commission on Higher Education. It is part of the Seventh-day Adventist education system, the world's second largest Christian school system. History The Adventist University of the Philippines was established by Seventh-day Adventist Church missionaries. In 1915, A. G. Daniels visited the Philippines and laid plans for the organization of an academic institution. Daniels was followed by L. V. Finster who reported that in 1916, I. A. Steinel and O. F. Sevrens and their families had arrived to supervise the establishment of the Philippine Seventh-day Adventist Academy on a five-acre land located along Calle Luna in Pasay, then part of the province of Rizal. The school formally opened on June 12, 1917, with 24 boys and 12 girls. The sole school building had classrooms on the first floor and a dormitory for the boys on the second floor. The girls stayed in an old mixed-material house which already existed on the land. In 1925, at the Spring Council of the Far Eastern Division, it was voted that the academy be authorized to carry fourteen grades, adding one grade each year toward 1927, and that the name be changed to Philippine Junior College. Elder W. B. Amundsen was elected principal in 1927 until 1931. At the end of 1927, 26 hectares of land was purchased in Baesa, Caloocan, then part of the province of Rizal, to accommodate the increasing student population. Prof. L. M. Stump, president of the college in 1931 directed the construction of the school buildings. In 1932, the school moved to the Baesa Campus. In that same year, FED permitted the junior college's elevation to a senior one, naming it the Philippine Union College (PUC). The school song, "Shine on Forever", was composed in 1933. The growing enrollment inspired the administration to purchase a bigger property comprising 165 hectares of land located at Putting Kahoy, Silang, in the province of Cavite, in 1972. The year 1979 saw the first batch of freshmen and sophomore students at this new campus and in 1981, with the movement of the juniors and seniors from Baesa, the campus transfer was completed. On August 1, 1996, in accordance with Republic Act No. 7722 and by virtue of Resolution No. 132-96, Series of 1996, the Commission on Higher Education granted PUC university status, entailing the change of the school's name from Philippine Union College to Adventist University of the Philippines (AUP). The university acquired deregulated status on October 22, 2001, and was awarded autonomous status on October 27, 2003.
