To the Quirino State University Community,

I am filled with immense pride and gratitude as we celebrate a crucial breakthrough for our institution: the successful re-accreditation of our various academic programs by the Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines (AACCUP). This achievement is a clear indication of our collective dedication to excellence and our sustained pursuit of quality education.

This success belongs to every single one of you. It is a direct result of the tireless efforts of our faculty members who uphold high academic standards in their instruction and guide our students toward success. It is also a sincere tribute to the leadership and hard work of our administrators and staff, including Dr. Elizabeth T. Carig, Vice President for Academics, Research, and Extension, and Dr. Florigold V. Saldaen, Vice President for Administration and Finance. Their diligence, hand-in-hand with our campus administrators, directors, deans, program chairpersons, unit heads, and every team member, provided the vital support needed throughout the rigorous accreditation process.

All our programs undergo quality assurance for continuous improvement through accreditation procedures, and we thank the Quality Assurance Unit for facilitating initiatives on this. Furthermore, we recognize our students who have engaged wholeheartedly in their studies and research activities, which have played a significant role in these achievements. The concerted effort put in by our teams and campuses made this possible.
As one united community, we formally recognize the programs that have recently received the confirmation of their re-accreditation status:

The external validation result is not merely a certificate; it is a powerful assurance of our firm resolve to serve our students and the broader community. It strengthens our reputation and provides confidence to future students and partners that they are joining a community dedicated to delivering a high-quality, relevant education. By maintaining these high standards, we are effectively preparing our students to be effective professionals and leaders in a rapidly changing world.

Moving forward, our goal is to acculturate innovation in providing an outstanding educational experience, conducting research, and serving communities through extension activities. This achievement gives us great momentum, and I look forward to working with all of you as we continue to build on this success and reach a new level of excellence.
