Student Life
The Arellano University Chiefs (formerly the Flaming Arrows) are the official athletic teams of the university and are members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the National Capital Region Athletic Association. There were several well-established dance troupe in the university which competes in the yearly inter-branch competition, along with the other branches of Arellano University. Fraternities and sororities had established chapters within the university, along with other well-established organizations. Several organizations recognized by the university were the Student Council and other legally established organizations.
The Student Council is the head of operations during school activities, especially activities for High School. There are also several collegiate activities headed by their respective council, and sometimes by the university administrator.
Students are also given the background and history of the university, most notably, in the Manila campus. The University Seal was prepared by artist Vicente Manansala and was inspired by the World War II-era photograph of American marines raising the flag of the United States on the summit of Mount Surabachi.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“Many a poor sore-eyed student that I have heard of would grow faster, both intellectually and physically, if, instead of sitting up so very late, he honestly slumbered a fool’s allowance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... when you make it a moral necessity for the young to dabble in all the subjects that the books on the top shelf are written about, you kill two very large birds with one stone: you satisfy precious curiosities, and you make them believe that they know as much about life as people who really know something. If college boys are solemnly advised to listen to lectures on prostitution, they will listen; and who is to blame if some time, in a less moral moment, they profit by their information?”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
