LEGAZPI CITY — It wasn’t just a “two names on the Top 10” kind of win for Bicol University–Legazpi in the January 2026 Licensure Examination for Architects. BU didn’t merely show up—it topped the list of top-performing schools as well.
Based on the PRC’s roster of top-performing schools (with 50 or more examinees and at least 80% passing rate), Bicol University–Legazpi ranked No. 1 with 73 examinees, 72 passers, and a 98.63% passing rate—a near-clean sweep that puts BU ahead of several long-established architecture powerhouses nationwide.
This strong institutional showing comes on top of BU’s individual triumph: Christus Leo Warde Del Rosario placing 5th, and Shannyn Ushuaia Belarmino Ansus placing 8th in the same exam—proof that BU’s performance was not just “a few standouts,” but a batch-wide breakthrough.
In short: BU didn’t just produce topnotchers. It delivered a top-performing class.
And if you’re looking for the simplest takeaway—Talagang maurag an mga Bicolano, partikularmente an mga Albayano.Congratulations, BU Arki!
