Augustinian Education is a Christ-centered, learner-centered, life-long process anchored on Augustinian values, which presupposes a holistic vision of the human person. It strives to form individuals by engaging students actively in the learning process and by offering flexible inquiry-based educational programs and support services geared towards the acquisition of necessary knowledge and fundamental Christian moral formation. Graduates are expected to become critical thinkers, lovers of Truth, agents of transformation, and responsible community builders.
The Office of the Vice President for Augustinian Formation and Mission continuously strives to provide authentic Christian-Augustinian formation that meets client satisfaction by means of quality instruction on doctrine and faith, transformative activities in spiritual and character formation, and dynamic and productive involvement in its community engagement.

Nurturing Augustinian Formation and Mission
Nurturing Augustinian Formation and Mission
Our institution is deeply committed to the holistic formation of students, guiding them to grow in faith, knowledge, and service.
This mission is carried out through the Office of the Vice President for Augustinian Formation and Mission, which unites five offices that together embody the Augustinian values of faith, service, and community.
The Campus Ministry serves as a center of spiritual life, offering liturgical celebrations, recollections, retreats, sacraments, spiritual talks, and pastoral programs like Agustino Tayo.
Alongside this, the Center for Religious Studies (CRS) strengthens Christian Human Formation from elementary to senior high school and promotes Augustinian Studies at the college level.
Supporting students in their personal and academic journey, the Guidance Services and Testing Center provides holistic care through the CARES framework—Curriculum, Appraisal, Responsive Services, Evaluation and Research, and System Support.
Beyond the campus, the Social Advocacy and Community Engagement Office empowers students and partners to serve society through initiatives such as the Tilipunan Community Development Program, Agustino Para sa Tao, the Augustinian Service Learning Program, and disaster response efforts under CARES.
Finally, the Student Affairs and Welfare Office fosters growth in arts and culture, environmental responsibility, research, sports and wellness, academic excellence, and leadership.
Together, these offices form one mission: to shape well-rounded individuals who live out the Augustinian spirit and are prepared to lead and serve in a changing world.
