On April 11, 2024, the Commission on Student Organizations and Accreditation held

a Recognition Day for the 133 accredited and revalidated student organizations.

The institutional recognition and continuous revalidation of student bodies are formally overseen by the Student Council Commission on Student Organizations and Accreditation (COSOA) and the Office of Student Services (OSS). Through regular accreditation cycles and annual events such as the Recognition Day for accredited and revalidated student formations—exemplified by COSOA Memorandum No. 07, Series of 2026, and preceding general assemblies—the university validates hundreds of student unions, councils, and academic societies. These independent bodies, ranging from college-specific student councils to university-wide advocacy groups, operate with administrative support to advance human rights, promote community involvement, secure stakeholder engagement, foster deliberative democracy, and protect individual rights within the academic environment
