♿ BREAKING BARRIERS, BUILDING AN INCLUSIVE ADSSU

from the Center of Students with Special Needs and Persons with Disabilities

In celebration of National Disability Rights Week, Agusan del Sur State University highlights its continuing commitment to creating a safe, accessible, and inclusive learning environment for all.

The University has established designated pathways, priority lanes, and ramps in strategic areas across academic buildings and support facilities. These accessibility features help persons with disabilities move around the campus more safely, comfortably, and independently.

Accessibility is more than the presence of ramps and special lanes. It reflects our shared responsibility to remove barriers, respect individual needs, and ensure that every student, employee, and visitor can participate fully in university life.

At ADSSU, we believe that everyone deserves equal access, dignity, and opportunity.

We all belong. We all matter.

𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 | 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗗𝗦𝗦𝗨 𝗣𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗱𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀

Agusan del Sur State University (ADSSU) issues this advisory with sincere regret over the late release of this notice and for any inconvenience it may have caused to our pioneer graduates, their families, and stakeholders. The University acknowledges the preparations already undertaken in anticipation of this significant academic milestone.

The Academic Year 2025–2026 marks a defining moment in the history of higher education in Agusan del Sur, as it produces the first graduates of Agusan del Sur State University following its transition from Agusan del Sur State College of Agriculture and Technology. This inaugural cohort represents the University’s pioneer graduating class and stands as a milestone in the institutional development of ADSSU.

In line with Commission En Banc Resolution No. 060-2026 dated 23 February 2026, the University is currently completing the full institutional integration requirements attendant to its conversion into a state university. This includes the consolidation of its official academic identity, legal nomenclature, documentation systems, and commencement protocols to fully reflect its status as Agusan del Sur State University.

In this regard, the Commencement Exercises for the Pioneer Graduating Class are hereby rescheduled. The revised schedule is currently being finalized, taking into consideration existing institutional engagements, and shall be issued in a separate advisory at the soonest possible time. This adjustment is made to ensure that the ceremony is conducted with full institutional propriety and with the distinction befitting the University’s first graduating cohort.

This rescheduling does not affect the academic standing and graduation status of the candidates concerned. Students who have fully completed all academic requirements shall be officially recognized as graduates effective 24 June 2026, in accordance with the approved Academic Calendar. The release of diplomas, transcripts, and other academic credentials shall follow standard University procedures and established timelines through the concerned offices.

The University enjoins the understanding, patience, and continued cooperation of all stakeholders as it prepares for this historic commencement with Batch Hiraya, Class of 2026. ADSSU remains committed to holding a dignified graduation ceremony that reflects the honor, achievement, and legacy of its pioneer graduates.
