Important Reminder to All International Students

The International Center is in the process of updating the records of all international students (IS) enrolled at De La Salle University. The Philippine Bureau of Immigration (BI) and the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) require these documents to be filed and updated at all times, as these papers are necessary for monitoring IS. Subsequently, a regular report will be generated and submitted by our office to the government agencies concerned.

Please visit the International Center at LS Building Room 114 to update/submit your documents as follows:

  • Visa Copy (first issuance)
  • Visa Extension (if applicable)
  • Alien Certificate of Registration or (ACR) I-Card
  • Passport Validity (pages where you have your picture and details, and the latest visa stamp)
  • Annual Report Receipt for 2009
  • Special Study Permit (SSP) (for Audit students and those under 18 years old)
  • SRRV or SIRV Card (for those using Special Retirees Visa or Special Investors Visa)
  • Certificate of Recognition as a Filipino (for Dual Citizens)
  • Updated International Student Personal Data Sheet, which can be downloaded here.

Please note the procedures to follow:

  1. Submit photocopies (but bring original documents for verification purposes) during office hours at LS Building, Room 114. Look for Ms. Ohda Caballero (International CenterCoordinator) or Ms. Ella (Secretary).
  2. Initially, the DLSU ID of those IS who will not be able to submit nor update their documents will be temporarily regulated/invalidated pending submission of documents.
  3. Enrollment for the succeeding term will be put on hold for those IS who will not be able to submit nor update their documents.
  4. An updated list of IS who have not completed their requirements will be given to the colleges and the Office of the University Registrar for their information and action.
  5. For further inquiries, the International Center is located at LS Building Rm. 114. or e-mail rhodora.caballero@dlsu.edu.ph
