Best Accountancy Schools in the Philippines (2015)

Here is the list of the best accountancy schools in the country, as based on the Commission on Higher Education's yearly list of higher education institutions certified with Centers of Excellence (COE) and Centers of Development (COD).

A COE refers to "a department within a higher education institution, which continuously demonstrates excellent performance in the areas of instruction, research and publication, extension and linkages and institutional qualifications". A COD, on the other hand, refers to "a department within a higher education institution, which demonstrates the potential to become a COE in the future".

These designations will be valid until 31 May 2015. The COEs and CODs do not reflect the overall performance of a university. The data reflected here are taken from the CHED records as of 10 August 2014.

For this list, no university has yet achieved a Center of Excellence from the CHED:

Luzon

• Saint Louis University - Baguio City (Center of Development)

Visayas

• University of St. La Salle - Bacolod City (Center of Development)
• Silliman University - Dumaguete City (Center of Development)
• University of San Jose Recoletos - Cebu City (Center of Development)
