Prospective applicants now have until July 13, 2026, to complete their registration.
According to university officials, the extension was granted primarily to accommodate candidates who recently changed their institution of first choice to DELSU, ensuring they have sufficient time to finalize their online screening profiles.
The university management reiterated that the core admission parameters remain unchanged for this academic session:
