Faith, Knowledge and Virtues and the growth and fullness of students in these areas are the main goals of San Beda College.
Bedan education has been designed to make the synergy of faith, knowledge and Christian-Benedictine virtues the defining mark of every Bedan ‘ career and personal life. Thus, potentials of fitness to the Bedan mold are essential requisites of admission to SBC.

At the end of the process, San Beda College invites to its fold those whose capabilities, potentials, and character are consistent with and complementary to the pursuit and advancement of the Bedan mission of education.
