Tuition Fees at FEU and Some Other Universities in Manila, Philippines

In less than two years, my daughter has enrolled and studied in three different universities in Manila because of different reasons, including allergies, fluctuations in finances and wrong choice of course.

As i searched for schools, i came to know about the ranges of tuition fees in some schools.  Some universities publish their tuition fees on their web sites; others don’t.  i hope the following info tidbits on tuition fees are able to give you some ideas about tuition fees in universities that i’ve researched, considered or enrolled in.
