“I humbly want to share that I have graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Communication Arts from the Philippine Women’s University under the Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP).” Ruffa posted while sharing a photo of her graduation picture on Instagram. “I am now gearing up for PWU’s 99th Commencement Exercises at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) next week.”
The mother of Lorin and Venice continued: “I would not have been able to successfully embark on my educational journey without the continuous guidance of PWU‘s ETEEAP team of professionals and the immeasurable support of my loved ones.”
Pursuing higher studies
Ruffa also shared that after getting her bachelor’s degree, she will pursue a Master’s Degree from the same school.
