ADMU also announced the names of the Ateneo Freshman Merit Scholars and Ignacio de Loyola Merit Scholars for SY 2011-2012. The full list of scholars may be viewed here. "Every year, thousands of students all over the Philippines apply for a place in the Ateneo, but because of the highly competitive nature of the application process, only very few eventually make it to the freshman class," ADMU said on its website. "And of these very few, there are those who have excelled in the Ateneo College Entrance Test, who distinguished themselves in their respective high schools and who also show great promise for the future – truly the best of the best," the ADMU added..—TJ Dimacali/JV, GMANews.TV
