Welcome to Metro Dumaguete College (MDC), a beacon of education located in the heart of Dumaguete City. Our story is one of growth, transformation, and a relentless pursuit of academic excellence. Since our humble beginnings as an Internet Café in 2002, we have evolved into a prominent non-stock, non-profit private educational institution, dedicated to shaping the minds and inspiring the futures of countless individuals.

MDC's journey started in 2002 when the visionary Mr. Wilfredo D. Manila and his wife, Dr. Delma P. Manila, established an Internet Café with a noble purpose—to provide a livelihood for their relatives. From these modest roots, the café soon transformed into a 4-WD Computer Training Center, setting the foundation for what was to become a hub of innovative learning. With a growing enrollment and a passion for education, Dr. Delma P. Manila took the reins of MDC and embarked on a mission to create something bigger. In 2007, the institution underwent a metamorphosis, emerging as Metro Dumaguete College with a new campus and a fresh outlook.

Vision: Metro Dumaguete College Inc. envisions being a school of choice in the Philippines—a symbol of academic distinction and societal impact.

We are committed to producing globally competitive graduates who possess the core values of Morality, Distinction, Courage, and Ingenuity.
