[edit] Sections
Some 70 students of the Second Screening (Math and Science Aptitude Test/MSAT) have slots already in this Campus. They are then divided into 3 sections with 22 students and above in each section. After the first year of the batch, slots emptied by dismissed students are then filled up by new students who were qualified by a placement exam given to students who belong in the top % of their batch in another school. Afterwards, the remaining students are the only ones left who can graduate at the Campus. Students from the Main Campus may transfer to other campuses. Students from the regional campuses may apply for transfer to the Main Campus. However, they must meet a grade requirement. The Cagayan Valley Campus has around 30 students in each class, with 3 classes per batch, in a total of about 90 students in each year level. The names of the sections in each year level are in accordance to a theme based on the major subject offered in that particular year level.
