University of Santo Tomas
The Catholic University of the Philippines

Operation Peace of Mind represents UST by coordinating entrance examinations in Nigeria for UST as well as other UST sister schools such as Letran College, St. Jude’s College, and Angelicum College.

Established in the year 1611, UST is the oldest university in Asia (25 years older than Harvard University of the USA). With over 40,000 students on one campus, it is the largest Catholic University in the world.

Founded and managed by the Dominican Fathers, UST has links to other sister Catholic institutions in the Philippines. UST has cooperative and consortia ties with 29 Universities around the world, including Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University in Indonesia, and Holy Family University in America—making UST one of the best institution of higher learning in the world.

Situated in the capital, Manila, the university has produced four of the Philippine’s past presidents, six Chief Supreme Court Justices, and numerous professionals and saints.

The first group of successful Nigerian Students left Nigeria to the Schools in June 2009. The second group left in January 2010 and the third in June 2010.
