De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde has formalized a partnership with the University of the Arts Singapore (UAS) last March 7, 2025 to launch a Student Exchange Program, further strengthening its commitment to academic collaboration and international learning opportunities for students.
The Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was signed in Singapore by Maria Veronica Templo-Perez, Benilde’s Vice President for Lasallian Mission and Student Life, alongside Professor Steve Dixon, President of UAS. This initiative provides students pursuing degrees in film, fine arts, design, media, performing arts, and arts management the opportunity for cross-cultural engagement and academic enrichment.
As part of the exchange program, UAS has sent its first exchange student, currently studying Film, to Benilde for the current term. In the upcoming school year, Benilde will send its first batch of students to UAS, marking the beginning of a balanced exchange between the institutions. The agreement allows up to 10 students per academic year, with a limit of 2 students per program, ensuring diverse learning experiences.
