About the Institution
Mountain View College (MVC) is a
Seventh-day Adventist institution envisioned to serve the educational needs of the young people in the South Philippines. However, as the College grew, students from all over the Philippines and from foreign countries came. The College officially opened its educational doors to the young people in 1953. It held its first graduation exercises in 1957. Located on a 2,500-foot plateau, MVC faces Mt. Kalatungan and Mt. Kitanglad. The College sits on 1,024 hectares, which includes farmlands, forests, and ranch lands ideal for industries and, more importantly, for training ground for students’ hands-on experiences. The land has an ample supply of water that makes it possible for MVC to have its own hydroelectric plants providing the campus populace with enough electricity besides abundant water supply for all college facilities. The history of MVC is a story of steady growth. From fifty-five enrollees in its first year of operation, the student population has grown to more than 2,000 students. Thus, to answer the growing population and felt needs of the youth of the new millennium, new facilities were established – a bigger and more modern library, a high school building, a new School of Nursing building, additional dormitories, a Student Center, and other facilities. Also, the SN Annex for the junior and senior nursing students was put up in Valencia City. A strong faculty-upgrading scheme is a priority in the faculty development program of the College. It aims to develop the faculty towards strong academic qualifications and towards strengthening professional status in the academic community.
