Learning Centers
The U.P.O.U. has several Learning Centers in strategic locations in the country. These Centers are the venues where students can conduct and seek advice on the following transactions, activities and procedures:
- application for admission
- registration
- student orientation
- distribution of course materials
- dropping of subjects
- filing leave of absence
- examinations
- accessing library materials
- face-to-face tutorials (if available)
- tutorials on basic computer and internet literacy
Learning Centers are mostly located in other U.P. campuses and state universities in selected regions of the country.
To serve the student support needs of offshore students, the University has created the Virtual Learning Center, where all transactions and procedures are conducted and communicated online.

Famous quotes containing the words learning and/or centers:
“The child does not begin to fall until she becomes seriously interested in walking, until she actually begins learning. Falling is thus more an indication of learning than a sign of failure.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
“[Madness] is the jail we could all end up in. And we know it. And watch our step. For a lifetime. We behave. A fantastic and entire system of social control, by the threat of example as effective over the general population as detention centers in dictatorships, the image of the madhouse floats through every mind for the course of its lifetime.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
