Siena College of Quezon City is a private, sectarian, non-stock educational institution located in San Francisco del Monte, Quezon City, Philippines. It was established in 1959 by Dominican nuns. The school offers tertiary education with degrees of Tourism, Business Administration, Hotel and Restaurant Management and Religious Education. It also offers pre-school, elementary, and secondary education.
At the opening of the school in 1959, Siena College opened its doors to 500 students who enrolled in the grade school, high school and college departments. The courses offered were Bachelor of Science in Arts, Commerce and Education, Secretarial and Home Arts.
In 1972, responding to the needs for a service education that would address the problems of unemployment and school dropouts, Siena College phased out the traditional four-year courses and retained only the Secretarial and Special Home Arts courses. In lieu of these, terminal courses were offered and the ladder-type curriculum was adopted. These courses were Bachelor of Science of Business Administration, Secretarial Administration, Food Service Administration, Junior Secretarial Course, Food Technology, Practical Entrepreneurship, Hotel and Restaurant Management, General Clerical Course and Tourism. At this time too, the Grade School Department adopted the innovative program called the Individualized Group-Guided Education or the IGGE.
The school underwent two self-surveys: one during the school year 1974-75 and the other during the school year 1976-77, both by the Council on Education of the Congregation.
The school year 1977-78 marked another self-survey using the PAASCU (Philippine Accrediting Association of School, Colleges and Universities) tools for evaluation. The three departments of Siena College underwent the PAASCU preliminary surveys during the school year 1978-79. After a successful formal survey, the Grade School and the High School Department, as well as the college program of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration were granted accreditation for a period of three years.
In 1980, the Congregation, through the General Chapter, approved the program of development for all its schools. The program is the CS-SD (Catholic Schools System Development) program. The CS-SD consists of phases of development for Catholic schools with emphasis on the development of students through living the Gospel and the improvement of educational services through Christ-like operations. Siena College entered the program immediately after its formal adoption by the Congregation. The program came to be known as the OP-SSSDP (Order of Preachers-Siena Schools System Development Program). The Congregational Council on Education facilitated its implementation.
In October 1982, the three departments of Siena College underwent the first CEV or the Congregational Evaluation Visit, which is part of the CS-SD program. It looked into how the school's instructional program and operations are in consonance with the congregational mission. In February of the same school year, the College and High School Departments had their PAASCU re-accreditation visits, successfully passed it and were given an accredited status for five years. The Grade School Department had its re-accreditation visit in August 1983 and was also given a five-year accreditation status. The three departments again passed the re-survey visits during the years 1994-95 and 2000-2001 successfully.
