The University of the Philippines Information Technology Training Center (UP ITTC) is pleased to announce that it will be administering its Admission Exam on May 5 at 1:00 PM.

The exam covers reading comprehension, verbal proficiency, logical reasoning, and mathematics, and will be held at Vidal A. Tan Hall, Quirino Ave. cor. Velasquez St., UP Diliman, Diliman, Quezon City.
