Actress Arlene Muhlach has finally completed her college degree, showing that age is not a barrier for those who want to pursue education.
Through her Instagram account, Arlene shared the exciting news with her followers, posting graduation photos alongside a heartfelt message thanking everyone who supported her journey. “I stopped my college studies in my third year many years ago when work was offered to me. Then my family came, and my priorities changed,” she explained.
Arlene graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from the Philippine Women’s University under the Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP).
Reflecting on her experience, she expressed gratitude to her professors and blockmates, saying, “I’m thankful to all my professors and blockmates (I had so many questions! Hahaha!!) in the ETEEAP program for their faith in me and my abilities.” She also gave special thanks to Prof. Gentica for letting her “experience campus life for a few hours after so long.”
Arlene’s inspiring achievement was met with warm congratulations from friends and colleagues in the entertainment industry, including Gelli de Belen, Ruffa Gutierrez, Edu Manzano, Rita Avila, Nadia Montenegro, and Lara Quigaman. “Age is just a number, determination and passion are what truly matters,” Arlene emphasized.
