University of the Philippines College Admission Test

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is a college admissions exam. It is not even a subunit of the university for which it exists, it is only a test to get into that university. No subject-specific guidelines exist for retaining this kind of article, and it does not meet WP:GNG on its own terms. KDS4444 (talk) 02:51, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
 * This is THE college admissions exam for THE national university of the Philippines, a system of constituent campuses. This is the only way into the most important university in the country (though arguably Ateneo de Manila is equally important) and determines not only admission, but which campus and which major.  Does that make it important enough to be included in Wikipedia?  It is not a nationwide test like the US ACT or SAT but it is significantly more determinant and for a top university. Neither the ACT or the SAT is the sole determinant of admission nor do they determine campus or major.  Imagine a single test given to decide if a student entered an Ivy League school, which school, and what they could major in. Would that be notable enough to have its own article? --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 05:42, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

 * What would make it notable enough to have its own article would be evidence of it having been the non-trivial subject of discussion in multiple, independent, reliable, secondary sources. Its mere existence or any argument that may be made for its importance are not by themselves enough.  If the test is not discussed in such sources, then it does not qualify as notable by Wikipedia standards.  KDS4444 (talk) 03:20, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
