Community Updates

In line with the Commission on Higher Education’s (CHED) advisory on the suspension of classes and school activities in all levels for the entire Luzon (as seen in CHED COVID Advisory No. 5 dated March 17, 2020), MCL has opted to continue with the delivery of learning via its online platforms, such as Blackboard Learn, provided that faculty members conduct them without prejudice to students who may not be able to participate due to the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ).

Prior to the ECQ, MCL followed the recommendations from the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Department of Health (DOH) regarding the temporary suspension of activities where persons will congregate (as seen in DepEd Memorandum No. 034, s. 2020 and DOH Advisory on Concerts and Other Public Events and Gatherings dated February 7, 2020).

Academic Continuity

MCL has been pioneering efforts to deliver a blended learning approach to instruction since 2009. Hence, while we all pray for the pandemic to subside, our stakeholders can be assured that learning happens until the end of the term through our alternative delivery mode.

MCL can effectively roll out classes through the Blackboard Learn (BBL). All courses offered in College and Senior High School are paired with its online delivery through our learning management system (LMS), Blackboard Learn, and all other online platforms that will make instructional delivery possible.

However, to help address the concerns of students and parents brought about by the difficulties from the ECQ, guidelines were established to make online learning easier for those with access to an internet connection, and to provide further consideration for those who do not.

Remote Work Policy

Following the Executive Order of the President of the Philippines on the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) of Luzon, the management of Malayan Colleges Laguna – A Mapua School will continue to implement a work from home scheme for non-teaching employees until April 12, 2020.

Employees with concerns may reach the Human Resources Management Office via hrmoannouncement@mcl.edu.ph.

Health Advisory for the 2019-nCoV (Released January 30, 2020)

While the campus was still open, MCL intensified the campaign for social distancing. With more than 7,000 people (i.e. students, employees, and guests) getting in and out of MCL on a daily basis, our students and employees cannot effectively distance themselves while in the lecture rooms, and common areas. We also want the students to intensify their own efforts for social distancing by giving them reasons not to take public transportation in going to and from the school.

Student Admission

As part of social distancing and due to the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) currently in place, the conduct of MCL Admissions Examination is temporarily suspended until further notice. However, online application remains open through the MCL Online Admissions portal. Scheduling of the entrance exam will be released no later than April 18, 2020.

For further assistance, applicants may reach the Admissions Office via the contact details below.

Services of the Registrar’s Office and the Treasury Office

The Registrar’s Office continues to offer academic services with its employees on work-from-home arrangements. However, these services are currently limited to enrollment procedures and accommodation of documentary requests that may be served through online means via e-mail.

Requests for printed documents are temporarily suspended. Transcript of records and certifications may be issued in electronic form by emailing registrar@mcl.edu.ph. Printed copies will be released once regular office operations resume.

For now, payments of tuition fees and back accounts are limited to off-site channels such as RCBC over-the-counter and RCBC Online Banking, Cebuana Lhuiller, and M. Lhuiller. Payments of all pending school fees may be done via PayMaya on OnEMCL and the Parent Portal. Finance-related concerns may be coordinated to the Treasury Office via email.
