Saint Mary’s University proudly announces the successful results of the June 2025 Architect Licensure Examination (ALE), where three Marian first-time takers passed the board, earning a 100% passing rate for SMU’s Department of Architecture.

The new Marian Registered Architects are:

• Ar. Chris Lourenze S. Bibas
  
  
• Ar. Aileen P. Mendoza
  
  
• Ar. Crizelle Joyce B. Pastor
  
  

The licensure exam was conducted by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and the SMU examinees outperformed the national passing rate of 67.15%, marking another milestone for the university’s Architecture program.

This achievement reflects the Department of Architecture’s dedication to academic excellence and the holistic formation of future architects. The consistent success of SMU Architecture graduates, including high passing rates in both the June 2024 and April 2025 ALE, further underscores the department’s commitment to producing competent, board-ready professionals.
