Our Lady of Fatima University

Our Lady of Fatima University is a private higher education institution in the Philippines, founded in 1967 by Jose C. Olivares and Dr. Vicente M. Santos. It originated from Our Lady of Fatima Hospital, which served as a foundation for training healthcare professionals, before expanding into a college of nursing in 1973 and a medical school in 1979. The institution achieved university status in 2002.

The university operates across multiple campuses, with its main campus in Valenzuela and additional sites in Quezon City, Antipolo, Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, and Laguna. These campuses provide a broad range of academic and clinical facilities, including teaching hospitals, laboratories, and simulation centres.

From teaching basic education (pre-school, grade school, and junior high school) through to senior high school, certificate and diploma programmes, and a wide range of baccalaureate degrees, the university provides a comprehensive academic pathway. In addition, it offers programmes in medicine, dentistry, and graduate studies.

Learning resource centres and libraries serve as key academic hubs, complemented by modern classrooms, laboratories, and collaborative spaces. Campuses also include socialisation areas, sports facilities, cafeterias, and religious spaces such as chapels and prayer stations.
