“Studying in the EU opens doors to quality education, cultural diversity, and global opportunities. This November, that ambition gets closer for Filipinos,”says H.E. Massimo Santoro, the European Union Ambassador to the Philippines, adding that through the EHEF 2025, the European Union reaffirms its commitment to helping Filipinos explore quality education and build globally connected futures.
The European Higher Education Fair (EHEF) 2025 returns on 21 and 22 November on-site in Robinsons Manila and on 24 November via online sessions, gathering EU’s top universities under one roof to connect with Filipino students, researchers, academicians and professionals eager to take their academic journey to the next level.
